Choice Hotels International, Inc., one of the world's largest lodging franchisors, has continued to expand its Everhome Suites brand with recent groundbreakings in Portsmouth, New Hampshire; Rochester, New York; and Somerset, New Jersey, developed in collaboration with Highside Companies.
The extended stay demand fundamentals make these locations an ideal fit for the Everhome Suites midscale brand, catering to both business and leisure travellers. Within the category, Choice has nearly 480 hotels open and more than 400 properties in the pipeline across its four extended-stay brands as of the first quarter of 2024.
"With three new properties breaking ground in key high-barrier-to-entry Northeast markets, Choice is continuing its leadership and growth in extended stay," said Matt McElhare, vice president and lead for Extended Stay Brands, Choice Hotels.
"With four Everhome Suites open, over 60 in development, 20 under construction, and more than 10 expected to open within the next year, Choice has first mover advantage with a proven track record of success. Our leadership is made possible by Choice's dedicated team of nearly 70 extended stay experts, in collaboration with our outstanding group of developers like Highside Companies."
Justin Roberts, CEO of Highside Companies, said the ongoing collaborations with Choice were exciting, which include thirteen Everhome Suites currently under development, with more on the horizon.
The Everhome Suites brand provides a Closer to Home experience that enables guests to live life on their terms during longer-term stays. The new construction midscale hotels are designed to help extended-stay guests maintain routine on the road with spacious suites with long-stay amenities featuring fully equipped kitchens, spa-style bathrooms, and customisable "me" spaces, including movable workstations, full-size closets, and additional storage. Everhome Suites properties have modern and sophisticated public spaces, 24/7 fitness centres with Peloton bikes, guest laundry facilities, free Wi-Fi, and self-service marketplaces with a variety of fresh and frozen meal and grocery options.
