Choice Hotels International’s Ascend Hotel Collection opened its 300th hotel worldwide. The 41-room Edgar Hotel-Martha’s Vineyard in Edgartown, Mass., is one of nearly 60 properties the upscale, soft brand has opened this year.
The property is located on the island within walking distance of shops, restaurants and fishing piers, and is a short drive from Katama Beach and other Martha’s Vineyard towns such as Oak Bluffs and Vineyard Haven. It features a bar and grill, business center and guest-laundry facilities.
Sawyer Realty Holdings owns the hotel and Prestige Hospitality Group operates it.
