West Orange, NJ, Mar 28, 2007 - /FLIERWIRE/-- The Automobile Association of America (AAA) has honored the Wilshire Grand Hotel, an 88-room, luxury, boutique style hotel located on the border of Verona and West Orange, New Jersey, with a three-diamond rating.

This prestigious recognition by AAA is bestowed exclusively to hotel properties that meet AAA's strict 27 Approved Lodging requirements such as cleanliness, comfort, security, and safety. For more information on AAA Approved Lodging requirements, visit www.aaa.com.

Three diamond hotels, according to AAA, "Appeal to the traveler with comprehensive needs. Properties are multifaceted with distinguished style, including marked upgrades in the quality of physical attributes, amenities, and level of comfort provided."

The Wilshire Grand Hotel offers a unique charm, elegant décor, and á la carte service for business and leisure travelers. Commended by AAA, in its recent evaluation, as a "wonderfully furnished property" with "excellent housekeeping and maintenance," the Wilshire Grand is quickly making a name for itself as a premier, first-class hotel in New Jersey.

"We're very proud of being rated as a three diamond hotel by AAA," stated Edward Reagoso, general manager for the Wilshire Grand Hotel. "Our staff works hard to make each stay for our guests, corporate or leisure, a rewarding one. One of the unique benefits of working for the Wilshire Grand is being able to provide a home-away-from-home experience combined with all the modern-day amenities and accommodations. That is something much larger hotel facilities can not compete with. It is also why boutique hotels are extremely popular with travelers."
