By expanding globally as well as domestically, Richfield remains on track to reach its previously-announced objective of 60 managed hotels by December, 2015. The company?s portfolio now stands at 29 hotels.

?China?s expanding middle class has created incredible opportunity for experienced hotel operators,? said Greg Mount, president, Richfield Hospitality. ?I am confident that local ownership coupled with our operational expertise will enable us to offer hotel owners a compelling management alternative.

?As we develop a presence in China, we actively will seek out additional hotels that can benefit from our experience and the state-of-the-art technology that our sister company, Sceptre Hospitality Resources, can provide,? Mount added.
