LOS ANGELES (May 27, 2010) – K Hotels, sales and marketing experts for independent hotel properties around the world, is proud to announce the addition of a new member property to its collection –The Coho Oceanfront Lodge. Situated along the Central Oregon Coast, the addition of this idyllic oceanside retreat continues K Hotels' successful expansion efforts in the United States.
The Coho Oceanfront Lodge in Lincoln City, Oregon reflects the ambience of the serenely beautiful Oregon Coast, complete with panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean. The recently-renovated and expanded property offers the warm comforts of a home away from home combined with the elegance and service of a boutique hotel. A great destination for a weekend getaway for a romantic excursion, The Coho Oceanfront Lodge embodies the best the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
"The Coho Oceanfront Lodge makes an excellent addition to our collection of hand-picked hotels," said Lara Weiss, Managing Director, K Hotels. "It's such a unique leisure property, and is sure to attract new clients, as K Hotels continues to expand our growing brand of hospitality expertise and service."
"A small property like The Coho needs a company like K Hotels to enhance the marketing outreach to regional and national travelers that might overlook us when searching for an Oregon Coastal vacation," said Rob Lee, Director of Operations at the Coho Oceanfront Lodge. "K Hotels also fills a much needed sales position that would otherwise be financially prohibitive for our hotel based on the sales efforts required to stay in front of travel agents and consumers not in our own backyard."

Lincoln City's Coho Oceanfront Lodge invites Portlanders to enjoy a spectacular getaway
Sometimes blustery, other times sun drenched, and always glorious, the Oregon Coast is one of the most popular escapes for Portlanders who want a delicious change of scenery.Just a two-hour drive through Oregon's famed wine country, Lincoln City, Ore., is a captivating destination for families and lovers who want to share some time laughing on the beach, poking their fingers in tide pools and trying to harness wind-bucking kites.
Upon arrival, there's no need to settle for a weather-beaten cabin with a fierce draft and a sandy floor – although there's plenty of those. I checked in to the newly renovated Coho Oceanfront Lodge, a perfect hybrid of family-friendly lodging and a quiet, intimate hideaway for couples set on a romantic cliff.
The Coho's recent multimillion-dollar construction and renovation project expanded the oceanfront property to 65 suites and rooms – 14 of them in a brand new south wing, which is relegated to adults. The latter features whirlpool bathtubs with shutters that open to reveal views of the surf. Other amenities include gas fireplaces, luxury linens, plush beds, spa robes, 32-inch HDTVs and, for those who can't quite get all the way away: Wi-Fi throughout the property.
Its other sections offer spacious, family vacation rooms, including pet-friendly rooms on the first floor. Some suites in the two renovated buildings have wood bunk beds, electronic game stations and child-size red furniture, while parents have their own, adjacent rooms. Some rooms have dishes and appliances for dining in, and binoculars in all the rooms for spying on gulls.

Lincoln City, Ore. (May 15, 2009) - The Coho Oceanfront Lodge (formerly the Coho Inn) unveiled completion of a multimillion-dollar guestrooms renovation. “With the renovation and repositioning, it is today a newly transformed oceanfront lodge offering the warm comforts of a home away from home, and the understated luxuries of a distinguished boutique hotel,” says Rob Lee, the director of operations at The Coho Oceanfront Lodge.
Led by a renowned interior designer, Ankrom Moisan Architects (www.amaa.com), the redesign of The Coho has restored this locally owned and operated hotel into a fresh, modern retro boutique that captures the beach palette, while bringing alive the coastal flavors.
“It always had amazing views, and after thorough research, careful planning and several million dollars, The Coho has been reborn and today is considered one of the best hotels along the Pacific Coast,” says Tim Crenshaw, the hotel manager.
The Coho’s modernized and contemporary guestrooms now feature plush amenities and finishes such as gas fireplaces, 32-inch LCD HDTV, HD DVD players, Ipod docking-station clock radios, Lumicor glass panels, imported tiles from Italy, comfortable deep-seated lounge chairs, and colorful photographs of sea corals and other sea life.
Along with the facilities renovation, there will be a multitude of upcoming expanded services at The Coho, including in-room massage by Back in Touch, wine tasting/social hours, gourmet coffee service with daily fresh-ground Sisters Brewing Coffee, and free homemade cookies available in the lobby.
The Coho is also undertaking an expansion in June 2009, which will add 14 oceanfront rooms and suites, a lookout deck with fire pits and seating area, and a public lookout park to the south of the existing facilities.
The Coho is a member of the Oregon Q Care program, with 100 percent of its front-desk associates having successfully gone through the quality certification process.
