The Farnam is the only hotel in Nebraska to hold coveted designation
(Omaha, NE) January 25, 2022 – A brilliantly unexpected hotel in downtown Omaha, The Farnam Hotel, Autograph Collection has become the only hotel in Nebraska to receive AAA’s prestigious four-diamond ranking. It is among just 6.5% of AAA Diamond properties who receive the four-diamond designation for outstanding style, service, and amenities.
Named after Henry Farnam who convinced the railroad to come to Omaha, The Farnam opened in May 2021 in Omaha’s Old Market, surrounded by shops, restaurants, businesses, and event centers.
“Our goal was to create an exceptional experience worthy of this significant designation,” said Jason Fisher, owner of The Farnam Hotel. “Attaining the four-diamond rating from AAA means we have done just that. We’ve taken a place and made it a destination where locals and travelers can experience the best of Omaha.”
To attain the AAA four-diamond designation, The Farnam managed by Greenwood Hospitality, demonstrated upscale offerings in all areas: progressive, refined and stylish accommodations; physical attributes that reflect an enhanced level of quality; an extensive array of amenities; and a high degree of hospitality, service, and attention to detail.
Here is a sampling of what guests experience at The Farnam Hotel:
A distinct sense of place in downtown Omaha’s central business district. The hotel is located within The Old Market, adjacent to the Gene Leahy Mall, and close to the convention center, CHI Health Center Arena, and TD Ameritrade Park.
