Chicago, IL., timeshare company, Shell Vacations has purchased Park Manor Suites on 5th Avenue in Hillcrest for $11.5 million.

As part of its acquisition, the company will officially change the name of the property to Inn at the Park in an effort to brand the hotel as part of its other collection of properties. Inn at the Park is also the name of one of its street-level restaurants.

The hotel features a combination of studio and one- and two-bedroom suites, ranging in size from 525 to 1,000 square feet, with 9-foot ceilings and large windows with views of the city below. The property includes two restaurants: Inn at the Park, at street-level, and Top of the Park at the penthouse level.

Frank P. Allen designed the hotel, built in 1926, in Italian Renaissance style. The red brick building was originally built as an apartment complex to house the architect and his family. Allen also designed the Cabrillo Bridge. In 1991, the City of San Diego named the hotel a historic site.
