All rooms also feature the Home Office™ Suite, designed to provide guests with plenty of storage and flexible space to spread out and make it their own.

The hotel also features the adjoining Rosebrook Event Center, a 4,500 square foot function facility with capacity to accommodate up to 400 people for weddings, corporate events, meetings, social parties, and more. With sweeping views of picturesque cranberry bogs, the Rosebrook Event Center will be the perfect choice for events and weddings in the area.
The hotel and event center were developed through a land lease with the A.D. Makepeace Company, which also plans restaurants, retail, and apartments at the site. The hotel is located on Route 28 at the intersection of I-495 and I-195 and is the landmark building for the development.
“This will be a real benefit for the town of Wareham, which currently has no full-service hotel facilities and few accommodations for functions,” said Michael P. Hogan, president and CEO of the A.D. Makepeace Company. “I believe this will be a true asset to the region’s tourism industry as well as an attraction for other businesses. Furthermore, having an experienced regional operator like the Lafrance Hospitality Company undertaking this project assures it will be successful.
