Jameson Inns has received the Marketing Award for Excellence by the Robinson College of Business at Georgia State University, in association with the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

The regional hotel chain was awarded Grand Winner status by the members of the Georgia State University Marketing Round Table, which consists of business leaders and marketing experts from some of the area’s largest and most recognized corporations.

The award was based on launch of the company’s innovative customer loyalty program, Jameson Stock Awards, which awards guests of the hotel chain with shares of Jameson common stock.
