What's Happening with Regent Hotels?

As we reported on Monday, Regent Hotels has dropped out as manager of the now-formerly-named Regent South Beach Hotel, despite having just opened the place eight months ago. Instead, Vinnci Hotels is taking over the place although they have yet to update their website to include this hotel.

A HotelChatter reader brought to our attention that the Regent Hotels has been dropping properties as of late--namely the Beverly Wilshire and a Singapore property--both of which were turned over to the Four Seasons.

Turnover, of course, happens in the hotel world but with the Regent opening in Bal Harbour and supposedly Boston in 2008, along with Costa Rica, Dubrovnik and Bangkok in 2009, you gotta wonder--are they going to ditch these hotels within a year too?

For now you may want to refrain from buying any condos at a Regent property. You don't want to get stuck with a Vincci Hotel or some other big-box hotel name, do you?
