ATLANTA, Aug. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- Colliers PKF Consulting USA (PKFC), the leading hotel and hospitality consulting and research firm in the United States, has merged their practice with Jacksonville, Florida-based Atlantic Hospitality Advisors (AHA). The three partners of AHA, Hank Staley, Jill Bidwell and Tony Jenkins, along with industry veterans Chuck Ross and Rachel Falkner, all joined the firm effective August 1, 2010.

Founded in 1995, AHA specializes in market analysis, appraisal and dispute resolution services for a broad spectrum of lodging industry participants, including lenders, owners, developers and hotel chains. Staley, Bidwell and Jenkins are also designated Members of the Appraisal Institute and increase the bench strength of the firm's valuation teams already resident in Atlanta, Bozeman, Philadelphia, Los Angeles and San Francisco. "The coming together of PKFC and AHA is also a reunion," said Mark Woodworth, executive vice president for PKFC in Atlanta. "Many of us had the good fortune of working with Hank, Jill and Chuck for many years back in the 1980's," Woodworth noted. "Their commitment to excellence and sizeable portfolio of dedicated clients furthers PKFC's reach in the Southeast. We are fortunate to have such a talented, well-respected group join our firm."
