US: The first property under IHG’s Atwell Suites brand will open in Miami next summer.

The all-suite brand was launched last year, and is described as “a design-led, dynamic, all-suites hotel brand optimised for longer stays of up to six nights”. Properties will feature a lobby space, breakfast area, lounge and bar, as well as co-working space The Common, and The Study meeting room.

The 90-key Atwell Suites Miami Brickell is scheduled to open in summer 2021 in the city’s financial centre, with the hotel forming part of a mixed-use development which will also feature a 140-key Hotel Indigo.

There are 20 Atwell Suites either under planning or in development across the US, in locations including Austin, Charlotte, Denver and Phoenix.

Suites will include zones for living and sleeping, a “wet bar” with undercounter refrigerator, microwave, coffeemaker and bar sink, a work area with a high-top desk, a pull-out sofa, an oversized vanity in the bathroom.

Albert Ovadia of developer Sunview Companies, said: “We’re thrilled be the first to announce an Atwell Suites branded property anywhere in the world. We know the unique design of the Atwell Suites brand will appeal to travellers exploring the Brickell neighbourhood, which is one of most lively and popular parts of Miami. This new hotel is destined to be a destination due to its location in the heart of the action, convenience for international travellers to the various consulates and business, as well as proximity to the world class shopping and restaurants Brickell offers.”

Karen Gilbride, vice president, Avid hotels and Atwell Suites, IHG, said: “We created Atwell Suites as a result of continuous collaboration and dialogue with an enthusiastic advisory board comprised of IHG owners to offer travellers something truly different in the upper-midscale space. The all-suites segment is fast growing and remains very resilient with strong owner interest throughout 2020. We congratulate owner Sunview Companies, and our other owners who have been among the first to sign on to develop an Atwell Suites hotel. We’re excited to continue the momentum of this brand and look forward to welcoming our first guests next year.”
