ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) – A second Titletown business has opened its doors.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony for Lodge Kohler was held Tuesday afternoon, with the servicing of guests beginning Wednesday.
Packers’ President Mark Murphy explains why the organization chose Lodge Kohler to be one of its three anchor businesses for the Titletown District.
“It’s a Wisconsin company. More than that was there reputation for excellence, particularly as it relates to hospitality. To be able to partner with a company like that was something we really viewed as a high priority.”
Kohler Executive Chairman Herb Kohler notes hotels typically make their largest profits off hosting large events.
Kohler says the most difficult part of negotiating whether to join the district was knowing that would not be the case in this agreement with the Packers.
“What’s out of the norm is the partnership: where the Packers provide the banquet space and meeting space, and we provide everything else.”
We asked Kohler what is the four-star facility’s best attraction.
“The spa is one of them. It has a hydromassage pool that there’s none like it in this country. It was invented from scratch.”
Lodge Kohler has 144 rooms, ten suites, two restaurants, and the spa area.
In addition to being a top option for those visiting the area on business, Murphy thinks Cheeseheads will take kindly to the resort.
“For people who live not too far away but come in here, to be able to stay in a hotel of this quality, I think will really make the whole experience around a Packers game pretty special.”
Lodge Kohler joins Hinterland Brewery, which opened its Titletown location in April.
Bellin Health plans to start operations at its new sports medicine facility next week.
