The Union Hotel, part of the Tribute Portfolio Hotel chain, will reopen following an extensive restoration of the property originally established in 1814.

Developer Jack Cust led the project, which focused on preserving original architectural elements while modernizing the space.<\/p>\n
\u201cThroughout the redevelopment process, great care was taken to preserve and restore as many original architectural elements and historic details of the property as possible,\u201d Cust said in a written statement. \u201cThe project intentionally blends the preserved bones and historic integrity of the building with contemporary design, allowing The Union Hotel to maintain its rich sense of history while introducing a refreshed guest experience built for today\u2019s traveler.\u201d<\/p>\n

Concord Hospitality will operate the hotel, which will be part of the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio. Mark Laport, president and chief executive officer of Concord Hospitality, said the property appeals to modern travelers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Union Hotel represents the kind of destination travelers are increasingly seeking \u2014 one that delivers authentic character, elevated hospitality, and an experience that feels deeply connected to its history and surroundings,\u201d Laport said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Executive Chef Andrew Lattanzio will lead the culinary program. Jersey Prime will serve as a modern Italian steakhouse featuring steaks dry-aged in-house, house-made pastas, seafood, a raw bar and handcrafted cocktails. The menu will include ingredients sourced from Hunterdon County farms.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt Jersey Prime, our goal is to create a dining experience that feels both refined and welcoming,\u201d Lattanzio said. \u201cWe focus on high-quality ingredients, thoughtful execution, and bold, approachable flavors that reflect the spirit of the Union Hotel and the community it serves.\u201d<\/p>\n
