Yeah it's weird, I don't think I've seen any other HP properties that are "named" like that. It sort of reminds me of the HP in Portland Maine (which has balcony rooms and suites, and a restaurant, like this one does). I guess they wanted to have generally basic rooms and a generally limited service property but still brand it with a name. On the Marriott side there are at least a handful of "named" properties that come to mind that happen to be a Renaissance (e.g., Sonoma), Residence Inn (e.g., The Wilson), or a Sheraton or whatever (e.g., The Gunter), that are outside the Tribute/Design/Autograph/Luxury "Collection" brands, but I don't think Hyatt really has the same phenomenon. "Named" properties tend to fall into the Hyatt "collections" (unbound, destination, etc).

Can anyone else think of any other HPs that are "The ___, a HP" rather than simply "HP xyz"?
