USA: WaterWalk will open a 126-room hotel with apartment-style suites, catering to business travellers or families for extended-stays in Tucson.

Construction of a third extended stay hotel located at The Bridges, near Interstate 10 and Park Avenue, has begun by WaterWalk. The hotel will join WoodSprings Suites which is already open, and Springhill Suites which is also under works.

Mimi Oliver, the CEO of WaterWalk, said: “Tucson was selected as a preferred market for development based on its exceptional growth trends and increasing business travel needs. Bringing a new type of travel product to Pima County will offer visitors to the city something more than the standard hotel experience, providing a thoughtful, comfortable, spacious stay with built-in optionality and experiences conducive to all lengths of stay.”

The Bridges features retailers such as Walmart, Costco, the UA Tech Park and Geico, alongside others. The south-side development has added new retail and restaurant venues every year. Developers bought the site for $53 million in 2005.

WaterWalk is a flexible lodging brand that launched in 2014. The Kansas-based hotel group has expanded its team in November 2022, with several key hires and internal promotions. Currently WaterWalk has nine properties open across eight markets, including two in Dallas, Wichita, Denver, San Antonio, Overland Park, Raleigh, Charlotte and Minneapolis.
