Charlestowne Hotels has added the new Hotel One75 (N.Y.) to its collection of university properties. The newly refurbished hotel, formerly the Wendt University Inn, is located one mile from the Colgate University campus. Hotel One75’s 93 rooms will make it the largest lodging venue in the Village of Hamilton, N.Y.
“Charlestowne understands properties near college campuses, and the local pride that comes with them,” Charlestowne Hotels CEO Kyle Hughey said in a statement. “We’ve worked closely with hotel ownership to infuse the spirit of Hamilton into Hotel One75, ensuring guests immediately feel connected to the university upon arrival. By blending collegiate-inspired programming with upgraded amenities, Hotel One75 will be a comfortable retreat for relaxing, connecting, and celebrating university-centric milestones.”
Hotel One75 has updated guestrooms, complimentary beer or wine at check-in, complimentary continental breakfast, pet-friendly accommodations and a banquet room. An afternoon snack will be served from a local ice cream and chocolate shop. There are collegiate touchpoints featured throughout the property, including vintage yearbook photographs hanging on the walls. A key feature of the property is the outdoor courtyard known as “The Quad” with a firepit and lawn games.
“We’re honored to introduce the refreshed Hotel One75 to the Colgate community, as it offers students, parents and alumni another way to connect with the university,” GM Kendra Young said. “Charlestowne Hotels understands how to create a distinctive asset in a collegiate market, and that’s exactly what they’ve done with our property here in Hamilton.”
Hotel One75 is Charlestowne’s 11th hotel in a university market. Additional properties include Lockwood Hotel in Waterville, Maine; Hotel Maverick in Grand Junction, Colo.; and the nearby Colgate Inn.
