The Davenport Hotel Collection Appoints Melissa Green as Vice President & Area Mangaging Director

Spokane, Washington (August 5, 2024) – The Davenport Hotel Collection, a portfolio of five upscale hotels in Spokane, Washington, welcomes Melissa Green as new Vice President & Area Managing Director. Green now oversees The Davenport Hotel, The Davenport Grand, The Davenport Tower, The Davenport Lusso and The Centennial – this collection of properties has become a hallmark of the Pacific Northwest city’s heritage and serves as a central gathering point for Spokane locals and travelers alike. Green will head up community relations as well as operations, working closely with the hotel teams to maximize guest satisfaction and revenue generation. 

“Melissa joins The Davenport Hotel Collection during a pinnacle moment in the collection’s legacy, as the landmark The Historic Davenport Hotel celebrates a milestone anniversary of 110 years in 2024 and will soon unveil much-anticipated renovations that reimagine the lobby with new immersive experiences,” says Paul Eckert, Executive Vice President of Operations at Davidson Hospitality Group, the management company for The Davenport Hotel Collection. “In her new role, Melissa will drive the future of the collection while upholding its longstanding commitment to providing impeccable service and helping guests make lifelong memories.” 

Green most recently served as Area General Manager at Hyatt Regency Boston/Cambridge & Hotel Viking where she achieved budgeted revenues of over $70 million. She was recently recognized by the Massachusetts Lodging Association and General Manager of the Year for 2023. Previously Green held General Manager roles at global brands Hyatt and Marriott as well as an extensive background in catering, events, food, beverage, and operations. 

As Vice President & Area Managing Director at The Davenport Hotel Collection, Green is committed to delivering exceptional customer service, while maintaining the high standards of quality and value that stays true to the collection’s long-standing reputation. In addition to overseeing the current renovations at The Historic Davenport Hotel, Green will lead a transformation at The Davenport Lusso – debuting in late 2024 as The Louie, Spokane’s newest luxury hotel.
