The 241-room Delta Orlando Lake Buena Vista, which opens in December, will be operated under a franchise agreement by JHM Hotels and will be the first Delta Hotels and Resorts-branded property in the United States.

?We are thrilled to work with JHM Hotels as we continue to integrate the Delta Hotels and Resorts brand into the Marriott family,? said Paul Cahill, global brand leader, Delta Hotels & Resorts and area vice president of operations, Canada.
?This opening also marks the beginning of new growth opportunities for both our owners and franchisees,? added Cahill.
