Noble House Hotels & Resorts Appoints Angie Combes as Director of Catering
and Conference Services for The Commons Hotel in Minneapolis

SEATTLE, Wash.- April 29, 2013 – Noble House Hotels & Resorts, Ltd. (NHHR) – a collection of luxury hotels and resorts – announces the appointment of Angie Combes as Director of Catering and Conference Services to The Commons Hotel in Minneapolis. In this role, Combes will oversee the day-to-day operations of the catering and conference departments, while maintaining focus on the strategic goals of The Commons Hotel.

“The Commons Hotel is thrilled to have such a tenacious and creative catering and conference manager on the team,” said Duane Rohrbaugh, general manager at The Commons Hotel. “Her experience and passion for creating the perfect event ensures success in any operation.”

With 15 years of extensive experience planning events of all sizes, Combes is apt to take on this role at The Commons Hotel. In her previous role as the Director of Catering and Special Events at CRAVE Catering, Combes was responsible for doubling revenue to $2 million while executing extravagant productions, including the Minnesota Monthly Best of Awards, Taste of NFL/Minnesota Vikings Football Club and the Minnesota Tile Grand Opening. As an active member of NACE, Combes is hands-on with planning and executing both large and small-scale events in all settings from hotels and conference centers to off-site locations.

“My passion is to create memorable experiences for my clients,” says Combes. “The Commons Hotel lends itself as the premier venue in Minneapolis, offering a whimsical twist to every occasion.”

The recently unveiled Commons Hotel embodies a sense of inner geek in a chic industrial schoolhouse setting, embracing diversity through the common desire to discover, with an uncommon experience. Explorers satisfy the whims of their inner geek with a Book Butler, alchemist mixology lessons, the lobby’s library lounge and Sudoku sleep-ins plus destination diversions curated to enlighten mind and soul.

Boasting 20,000 square feet of meeting and event space, made up of 14 individual indoor and outdoor meeting rooms, The Commons Hotel is the ideal location for a small executive retreat or an extravagant yet intimate affair. Inventive meetings amenities encourage the inner geek in even the most serious of executives, with themed geek chic wings, Jenga and spelling bee breaks, secrets of industry lectures, smarties and smart water on meeting tables and the Mad Scientist Break that will engage groups with “experimental” treats.

With a philosophy that emphasizes “location, distinction and soul,” Noble House Hotels & Resorts reflects the appearance of individuality. Identifying each property for its culture and appeal, Noble House is unwavering in its dedication to create and manage unique, quality properties that reflect and make profound contributions to their communities, staying true to the local history, culture and ambiance that defines each region.
