A Tale of Two Lobbies
City of Grapevine
Where tradition meets innovation. Page managed by Grapevine Economic Development.
As our?ongoing series,?‘Growing Grapevine,’ delves into the heart and history of the City, it’s time to circle back to the industry that most everyone associates with our success: Hospitality. There are so many excellent hotels here in Grapevine that covering each and every one of them would prove difficult. But a close examination of the largest and most recognizable brands – whose properties happen to sit barely over a mile apart – provides an excellent picture of the distinctive market advantages that drive the entire industry here in Grapevine.?
Our staff interviewed key employees at both the Gaylord Texan Resort and the Great Wolf Lodge to see what makes this market so appealing to developers and how two rival brands can function so effectively in proximity to one another. Their answers highlight one of the most important distinctive traits Grapevine has to offer: the community itself.?
