US: Choice Hotels International has opened its 10th Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand location at St. Louis Airport.
The company has more than 70 Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand hotels in the pipeline.
“We are seeing great progress for our Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand concept as it offers tremendous value to guests and developers,” said Brian Quinn, vice president, franchise development, Choice Hotels. “Our state-of-the-art design allows guests to experience the key features of two distinctive brands during their stay to exceed their needs. At the same time, the dual-brand locations provide developers with construction and operational efficiencies, as well as the ability to deliver a product that appeals to business, leisure and extended stay guests – all under one roof. It truly is a win-win for everyone.”
Choice Hotels says: “The Sleep Inn brand, a leader in midscale new construction, offers the lowest cost to build in the segment along with a smart design rooted in timeless nature elements. The evolved prototype, introduced in 2016, offers modern, enduring innovations that appeal to guests of today and tomorrow. MainStay Suites is an all-suites, extended stay brand with a new prototype, unveiled earlier this year that was inspired by hotel and residential design trends. The brand incorporates features such as open-concept community rooms and outdoor living spaces, and is designed for guests who are looking for long-term hotel options that feel like home. Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand locations offer popular amenities, like free hot breakfast and Wi-Fi, meeting space, and business and fitness centres.”
Sam Ursani of Rukshana Hospitality LLC, owner of the Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites – St. Louis Airport in Bridgeton, Missouri, said: “Choice Hotels’ Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand is the perfect match for developers. It has provided me a strong return on my investment, and guests truly enjoy the flexibility that it offers for all types of travel. Choice has been a great collaborator and offers all of the resources to bring this unique concept to life. The combination of two well-established brands and the efficiency of construction and operations have contributed to our success.”
Choice Hotels recently bolstered its extended stay portfolio with the acquisition of WoodSpring Hotels.</p
