Concord Hospitality, a leading hotel management and development company that operates over 140 properties across the U.S. and Canada, was recognized at the 2025 Noble World Hotel Awards for two standout properties: Westin Atlanta Gwinnett in Duluth, GA and Homewood Suites Charlotte Uptown in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Westin Atlanta Gwinnett received two honors: Outstanding Conference Hotel and Outstanding Event Hotel. The 348-room hotel featuring over 27,000 square feet of event space, designed to support high-level events and gatherings, is the neighborhood’s first full-service, four-star hotel. In addition to being situated in the Gas South District, a premier event destination developed in partnership with the Gwinnett Convention and Visitors Bureau, the property also offers guests luxurious accommodations with wellness-focused amenities, a rooftop bar with 360-degree views and dining options like SweetSong Kitchen & Bar and Starbucks.
Homewood Suites by Hilton Charlotte Uptown First Ward was named Outstanding City Hotel. What makes this property unique is its 3,400 square feet of meeting space and the brand name Southern eatery, 1st Ward Social Bar + Kitchen–all amenities that go beyond typical Homewood Suites. Situated in Uptown’s lively First Ward near the Spectrum Center, the property is a convenient stop for a cocktail or a bite before a Hornets game or concert. The property also boasts a state-of-the-art fitness center, cozy breakfast bistro and an inviting outdoor patio with fire pits, which all come together to create a dynamic and welcoming atmosphere for families, business groups and solo travelers alike.
