US-based Choice Hotels International has entered into an agreement with S3D Partner to develop its first Cambria hotel in Burbank, California.
The new six-story, 90-room Cambria Hotel Burbank, which is expected to be opened in 2019, will be located near 'Media Capital of the World', which accommodates several entertainment companies.
Some companies located in that area include The Walt Disney, Warner Bros, Nickelodeon, NBC, Cartoon Network Studios and Insomniac Games.
