“We are excited to continue building and expanding relationships with unique, independent properties across premier US travel destinations,” said Jennifer Barnwell, president of Curator Hotel & Resort Collection. “Whether fully operational or in various stages of development, Curator’s suite of solutions and offerings can benefit any hotel or resort property, helping them optimize operations and allocate more resources to focus on creating unforgettable guest experiences and perfecting the 'stay of the art.'”

The newest members of Curator Hotel & Resort Collection include:

Quirk Richmond (Richmond, Virginia): Built in 1916, the Quirk Hotel was once J.B. Mosby & Co. Dry Goods Store with an Italian Renaissance design, filled with natural light and historic charm. In 2005, owners Katie and Ted Ukrop converted a portion of the ground floor into the Quirk Gallery, an offbeat hub showcasing local and regional artists. And in 2015, they turned it into a boutique hotel where they could attract local artists and guests. The 73 guest rooms and suites are thoughtfully designed with local artwork, ensuring a one-of-a-kind experience for each guest. Quirk Richmond allows guests to discover local artists throughout the boutique space and enjoy thoughtfully crafted meals from local ingredients. The hotel is in the heart of one of Richmond’s most dynamic neighborhoods and offers easy access to various attractions and shopping destinations. Don't miss The Q Rooftop, recognized as "One of the 10 Best Rooftop Bars in the U.S." (2016) by Condé Nast Traveler.

Albert Hotel (Fredericksburg, Texas): An Honest Hill Country Getaway, Albert Hotel is located in Fredericksburg, Texas and features four late-19th century buildings and a newly constructed hotel with event and restaurant space, and a spa.

The hotel has 109 guest rooms, including bunkrooms, suites, and a private house; three restaurants, two bars and a full-service spa. Albert Hotel is slated to open later this year.
