ROCKVILLE, Md., Sept. 25, 2019 — Choice Hotels has announced the opening of the nation’s 400th Sleep Inn hotel in Spokane, Washington. The debut, which also marks the 20th Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites dual-brand hotel, continues to drive Choice’s western expansion.
Located at 3809 S. Geiger Blvd., the 87-room Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites Spokane Airport is near Interstate 90, providing easy access to downtown Spokane and all it has to offer. The hotel also provides convenient access to Gonzaga University and the Spokane Convention Center, as well as the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture, local wineries, and the Spokane Valley, a popular destination for outdoor activities along the Spokane River.
“It’s not often that a hotel brand celebrates two major milestones on the same day – the 400th domestic location for Sleep Inn and the 20th Sleep Inn-MainStay Suites dual brand opening. I can’t think of a better market than Spokane to usher in this landmark,” said Megan Brumagim, vice president, brand management, design and compliance, Choice Hotels. “Sleep Inn continues its reputation as a proven leader in the midscale space and we’re thrilled visitors to the Pacific Northwest can enjoy the brand’s nature-inspired aesthetic and simply stylish design.”
The Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites Spokane Airport offers amenities like an indoor heated pool, full bar, 24/7 marketplace and complimentary airport shuttle service. All Sleep Inn-MainStay Suites dual-brand properties include complimentary hot breakfast, free Wi-Fi, meeting space, a business center, and a fitness center.
“Sleep Inn’s major milestone is further evidence of Choice’s leadership in the midscale segment,” said Brian Quinn, vice president, head of development, new construction brands, Choice Hotels. “There are over 150 Sleep Inn hotels in the global development pipeline because we understand what developers in the segment want — and Sleep Inn delivers.”
The Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites Spokane Airport was developed by H&H Hospitality Spokane LLC and Lighthouse Hospitality Group.
“We couldn’t be more excited to start welcoming guests, whether they’re staying for one night or a week,” said Don Klain, president, Lighthouse Hospitality Group. “Backed by two of Choice’s leading midscale brands, the Sleep Inn and MainStay Suites Spokane Airport aims to exceed our customers’ expectations in every way. The future for this hotel is bright, and we fully expect it to be a win for all involved.”
