What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Crowne Plaza FDD, when undertaking construction at a Crowne Plaza Hotel, you must ensure your general contractor maintains commercial general liability insurance. This policy must include coverage for product liability, completed operations, and contractual liability.
The required commercial general liability insurance policy must have limits of at least $20,000,000 per occurrence for personal and bodily injury and property damage. This policy must name Holiday, its parents, subsidiaries, and affiliates as additional insureds, providing them with protection under the policy as well.
In addition to commercial general liability insurance, the general contractor must also maintain business automobile liability insurance, including hired and non-owned liability, with the same $20,000,000 minimum coverage per occurrence. Ensuring that your contractor meets these insurance requirements is crucial to protect both your investment and the Crowne Plaza brand from potential liabilities during the construction process.
