Comstock Holding Companies—a real estate company specializing in the development, acquisition, operation, and management of mixed-use, transit-oriented properties and data center developments—has transitioned all management and operational responsibilities for the JW Marriott Reston (Va.) Station hotel from Crescent Hotels & Resorts to Davidson Hospitality Group effective Oct. 1.
"We are thrilled to bring on a best-in-class hospitality management provider like Davidson to the JW Marriott Reston Station," Comstock COO Tim Steffan said in a statement. "Their proven ability to deliver upscale luxury service, drive performance, and elevate guest experiences will perfectly complement the unique design and guest profile of the one-of-a-kind JW Marriott Reston Station."
"On behalf of Davidson, we are delighted to be embarking on a new relationship with such highly regarded partners to create value for this extraordinary luxury hotel," Davidson CEO Thom Geshay added. "We look forward to leveraging our wealth of specialized experience to drive exceptional performance, invigorate team member engagement, and deliver standout guest experiences defined by mindfulness, balance, and renewal."
The JW Marriott Reston Station opened a year ago and has 248 keys and more than 40,000 square feet of event spacea. The hotel is the foundation of a 28-story tower that also includes the JW Marriott Residences Reston Station, a collection of more than 90 JW Marriott-branded condominiums that occupy the top 14 floors. The property is the centerpiece of The Row at Reston Station, Comstock’s newest development phase within its Reston Station neighborhood.
"As Crescent concludes its assignment as the operator tasked with opening Virginia’s first JW Marriott, I want to thank Michael George and the entire Crescent team for their tremendous contributions in positioning the JW Marriott Reston Station as the premier luxury hotel and conference facility in the region," said Christopher Clemente, chairman and chief executive officer of Comstock. "General Manager Dewayne Wright was charged with bringing the JW Marriott Reston Station to life one year ago. He and his team expertly handled the operations of the multi-faceted luxury property with poise and grace while earning the JW Marriott Reston Station the distinction of being a top-ranked luxury hotel in North America."
Reston Station is among the largest and most prominent mixed-use, transit-oriented developments in the Mid-Atlantic region, covering approximately 90 acres spanning the Dulles Toll Road and surrounding the Wiehle-Reston East Station on Metro’s Silver Line. It features multiple Trophy-Class office buildings that serve as the global, national or regional headquarters for industry leaders, including Google, Booz Allen Hamilton, ICF International, Mobility Global-CARFAX, QTS, and numerous others. Reston Station also includes two BLVD-branded, 400+ unit luxury high-rise apartment towers and signature dining, retail, and wellness options that include a 55,000-square-foot VIDA Fitness and Spa, Founding Farmers, Davio’s Northern Italian Steakhouse, Starbucks, CVS, and more. Coming this fall will be Ebbitt House, the first-ever expansion of D.C.’s iconic Old Ebbitt Grill brand. For more information, please visit RestonStation.com.
