"Crescent has been closely involved with the development of the Huntsville Element, which I believe is the finest Element opened to date." said Michael George, President and Chief Executive Officer of Crescent Hotels & Resorts. "Crescent is an award winning Marriott operator and is thrilled to partner with the entire project team in transforming the Westin complex into this beautiful dual branded property with the addition of the Element."
