Long Island
According to Cushman & Wakefield Sonnenblick Goldman's Global Hospitality Group, the Hilton Long Island/Huntington, a 304-room property situated in the Rte. 110 business corridor in the center of Long Island, has been sold by an institutional ownership group to Prudential Real Estate Investors and The Dow Hotel Company. The sales price was not disclosed.
A Cushman & Wakefield Sonnenblick Goldman team led by Tom McConnell and Ernest Lee represented the sellers.
"This hotel is one of the premier full-service hotels and meeting destinations in Long Island," said Tom McConnell, a senior managing director at Cushman & Wakefield Sonnenblick Goldman. "We received incredible interest during the sale which highlights the continued demand for well located, high quality hotels in the greater New York City area."
The Hilton is located at 598 Broad Hollow Road in Melville, NY and is situated on the border of Nassau and Suffolk counties. The property is the sole full-service Hilton on Long Island and features 30,000 s/f of meeting space.
In recent months, Cushman & Wakefield Sonnenblick Goldman's Global Hospitality Group has been involved in several of the nation's premier hotel transactions, including the sales of the JW Marriott San Francisco and the Hilton Rye Town in Rye Brook, New York, and the financing of a $170 million portfolio consisting of two Times Square hotels, a $212 million 9-hotel portfolio for FelCor Lodging Trust, and the Four Seasons Austin, among others.
