Columbia Hospitality Claimed Company
OUR ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT IS ALIVE AND WELL We'll try just about anything once. This entrepreneurial spirit is how Columbia Hospitality got its start. As a trusted partner of the Port of Seattle, having planned and executed many events for them, they asked Columbia CEO and Founder, John Oppenheimer, if he knew anyone who would be a good operator for the soon-to-be-built Bell Harbor International Conference Center. Having no management experience, naturally, John said, “Yes, US!” When asked why, his response was, “Because we’ve never done it before, but no one knows what your clients want better than us!” We got the job, and we still have that job decades later. read more

The most positive is the team has a common goal and uplifts eachother to reach said gosl

Review from Product Dept

It actually feels like this company is a little community of its own and it's not too demanding. I think the culture of this hotel, from guests to the workers, is a lot about security and comfort and connection rather than a purely service model. It's service with a smile because it's genuine.
