History
Signature Inn began in 1981 in Indianapolis, Indiana,[4] while Jameson Inn was founded in 1987 in Winder, Georgia.[5]
The company was purchased by JER Partners in 2006, at which point the chain comprised 107 properties.[6] Later that same year, it became part of Longhouse Hospitality, which also owns the Crestwood Suites, Sun Suites, and Lodge America brands.[7] America's Best Franchising purchased the chain in 2012.[2]
In 2014, Jameson Inns - along with several other ABF brands - was acquired by Vantage Hospitality.[8] Vantage Hospitality was itself sold to Red Lion Hotels Corporation two years later.
