US: Hotel development and management company NexGen Hotels will break ground on its first Home2 Suites by Hilton this April.
The property will be located at 1700 S. Higgins Rd. in Des Plaines, Illinois, less than four miles from O’Hare International Airport.
The $16 million five-storey hotel will have 107 suites and is scheduled to open the summer of 2022. NexGen Hotels is the general contractor and developer for the 63,000-square foot property. Origination Design is the architect, and Genuine Hospitality Group of St. Louis, Missouri, will manage the hotel.
The property features spacious suites complete with fully equipped kitchens, outdoor lounge and patio areas, an indoor saltwater pool plus a combination fitness and laundry facility called Spin2 Cycle.
“We look forward to working with the Home2 Suites brand for the very first time in our company’s history,” said NexGen Hotels principal Chris Patel. “Its proximity to O’Hare airport makes this prime location extremely convenient to those visiting our city for both work and pleasure.” Patel added that the Home2 Suites destination is a “welcome addition to both our portfolio and to the Illinois market based upon its sustainable and user-friendly lodging model.”
Founded in 2007, NexGen Hotels owns and operates 10 hotels with four more in development.
