HOTELS: SuperClubs Sells Another Breezes Resort

SuperClubs says it's selling the 266-room Breezes Runaway Bay (pictured) in Jamaica to the company that operates the Jewel Dunn's River Beach Resort & Spa (formerly a Sandals property). The Breezes location will be renamed the Jewel Runaway Bay Resort starting June 1, and it will reportedly undergo renovations and expansion during the transition. Due to the loss of two other resorts announced earlier, SuperClubs will have six Breezes locations left after the end of June.

TravelPulse.com reports that the 290-room Palace Hotel Tokyo will open next month in the city's Marunouchi district. The hotel will have 10 dining venues and bars, the first evian-branded spa in Japan, and other unique touches.

Dolce Hotels will unveil the 111-room Dolce Hotel Vittel in the summer of 2013 as its third property in France. Formerly the Hotel des Thermes, the hotel will offer two restaurants, a lobby lounge, a fitness center, and other guest services.

Marriott will sell its ExecuStay corporate housing division (with more than 700 locations across the United States) to Oakwood Worldwide. The sale will not affect Marriott Executive Apartments, the company's subsidiary offering corporate apartments for rent.

The estate of famed author Ernest Hemingway has struck a licensing deal with a company called Hemingway Hotels & Resorts to develop luxury hotels and resorts built around the author's image.
