I would like to take this opportunity to commend you and the entire team at Benjamin West for consistently providing Apple REIT Companies with outstanding service and an exceptional FF&E purchasing program. With more than 140 Marriott and Hilton properties within our portfolios, first-rate, cost effective FF&E purchases are critical to our success in today’s competitive lodging marketplace. Benjamin West has proven a strong member of our team in that regard, with more than 100 Apple projects successfully completed.

Title: President

Company: Paramount Hotel Group

In my over 20 years in the hospitality industry, I have worked with many different purchasing firms, both in-house at the corporate level and other independent firms. Benjamin West redefines what is possible in every aspect of managing the FF&E process: negotiating cost, negotiating terms, maintaining a critical path schedule, warranty issues, and most importantly, integrity.
