Pittsfield is experiencing a hotel boomlet. The Hotel on North opened early in June. In July, hotelier Vijay Mahida will open a 95-room Hilton Garden Hotel. The hospitality business requires a steady stream of guests, and Hotel on North plans to use a number of different tools to increase occupancy. Main Street CEO Sarah Eustis said. “We’re going to manage our rates very carefully. It’s a fine art.” Main Street will also wage an aggressive PR campaign “that goes way beyond the Berkshires.”
“This is a gift to the Berkshires. We need to think of it as one county — that’s how we’ll succeed.”
-- Eva Sheridan, Senior Vice President of Human Resources at MountainOne Bank
