A downtown Tampa hotel that was a major redevelopment project in 2014 has been sold as part of a $60 million portfolio deal.

Liberty Group, based in Tampa, said Friday it has sold off a 500-room portfolio that includes Aloft Tampa Downtown Hotel as well as the following properties:

  • Holiday Inn Express by IHG, Tampa/Busch Gardens
  • Holiday Inn Express by IHG, Tampa/USF Telecom Park
  • Holiday Inn Express by IHG, Venice
  • Candlewood Suites by IHG, Fort Myers
  • Best Western Plus, Bradenton

    The six-story Aloft was previously an office building anchored by Mercantile Bank. The $18 million redevelopment of the building commenced in June 2013 and the hotel opened in summer 2014.

    Aloft's allotted price within the portfolio was $27.2 million, according to Hillsborough County property records. The buyer was Charlotte-based Pharos Hospitality.

    "With the sale of these hotels, we have demonstrated a full-cycle investment process while exceeding return expectations and creating tremendous value to our stakeholders,” Punit Shah, Liberty CEO, said in a statement.
