Mid-priced extended stay hotel brand Extended
Stay America and its affiliated entities have appointed Greg Juceam as president and CEO, effective
immediately. He succeeds previous president and CEO Bruce Haase, who has
stepped down to pursue other opportunities.
The ESA brand, which includes Extended Stay
America Suites and Extended Stay America Premier Suites, comprises more than
650 hotels in the U.S. ESA went private on June 16, 2021, when it was acquired
by Blackstone Real Estate Partners and Starwood Capital Group for about $6
billion.
Prior to joining ESA four months ago as chief commercial
officer, Mr. Juceam was president and COO for G6 Hospitality LLC, which owns, operates,
or franchises 1,400 economy lodging locations under the Motel 6 and Studio 6
brands. He was also CEO of BRE Hotels and Resorts, a hospitality real estate
platform that represented more than 250 hotels in the upscale and luxury hotel segments.
