The Hotel at Kirkwood Center recently became a member of Summit Hotels & Resorts, a collection of more than 150 internationally acclaimed hotels and resorts that celebrate local luxury. This fast-growing brand celebrates the found treasures – places, objects and culture – that make each guest experience authentic.

The Summit sensibility is world-wise with a local point of view. It is a global concierge, multi-lingual and multi-cultural, providing guests in every location with an insider's knowledge of the neighborhood. Ranging from historic urban hotels to exclusive beach resorts, the distinctive hotels and resorts of Summit can be found in many of the world's most enticing destinations.

The elegant Hotel at Kirkwood Center and gourmet Class Act restaurant are the first of their kind at a community college, and were designed as much for the student experience as for the guests. This real-world learning laboratory prepares students with practical skills that can't be taught in a traditional classroom.

Stylish, Euro-chic features, an extensive, completely original art collection of hand-blown glass, student, faculty and local art – every detail, floor to ceiling, was hand-chosen to create an amazing atmosphere for guests to enjoy. The Class Act features a tempting menu of fresh, locally-grown fare and exciting twists on many old favorites.

While the external focus lies with exemplary guest experiences, internally The Hotel's vision is to prepare the finest professionals to lead the global hospitality industry. Through intense study, students learn best practices working alongside professional staff with years of industry experience.
