Tower Square hotel in hands of new owners; local group plans renovations and rebranding
Businessman Dinesh Patel of East Longmeadow and his partners closed Thursday on their $10.5 million purchase of the Tower Square Hotel, formerly the Marriott, in the heart of downtown. The partners plan to buy the rest of Tower Square — including the parking garage — within a few weeks, for a sum they do not yet wish to disclose. The parking garage is considered part of the mall and office tower property. The hotel’s sale price became public when papers were filed at the Hampden County Registry of Deeds.
