US: Hospitality company Choice Hotels has revealed three Everhome Suites are under construction in California, with six more in various stages of development across Southern California.
Everhome Suites Temecula (120 rooms), Everhome Suites Ontario (113 rooms), and Everhome Suites San Bernardino (114 rooms) are currently under construction. The properties are expected to open in the second half of 2024 and early 2025.
Each unit will feature separate lounge and working areas with fully equipped kitchens. Amenities include a 24/7, tech-enabled Homebase Market with food, beverages and groceries, a 24/7 fitness centre, and laundry facilities.
Ron Burgett, senior vice president, franchise development, extended stay at Choice Hotels, said: “With three new properties under construction in key California growth markets and six more Everhome Suites under development, Choice is continuing its leadership and growth in the extended stay segment. Despite challenges in new construction projects, our successful track record and strategic development approach, in collaboration with outstanding developers like Paladin Equity Capital, enable us to efficiently bring projects to fruition.”
Paladin Equity Capital established the first Everhome Suites in Corona, California in 2022.
Philip Powers, partner at Paladin Equity Capital, said: “Choice Hotels has been an exceptionally supportive partner as we continue to build the Everhome Suites brand. Our first Everhome Suites has been open for a year and really hit its stride. We have been in close collaboration with the Choice extended stay brand and marketing teams, working to effectively drive brand awareness and book long staying guests. Their highly sophisticated approach has been a huge asset and we’re confident the next three opening in 2024 will be very successful.”
For the first nine months of 2023, Choice’s extended stay hotel openings grew by 38 per cent compared to the same period in 2022. The company’s extended stay domestic pipeline increased 12 per cent year over year to over 47,000 rooms in Q3 2023.
Choice currently has 60 Everhome Suites properties in the pipeline and over 250 across three other extended stay brands: MainStay Suites, Suburban Studios and WoodSpring Suites.
