The Staybridge Suites at the Shops in Northfield is expected to be opened this December, just in time to help Northfield holiday sales. Forest City and The Shops at Northfield are hoping the new hotel will bring business their way. “The idea is that we will get lots of business travelers staying here,” said Forest City spokesperson Janelle Ayers. “Once they are dropped off here by their car service, they will feel stuck in this area, and will hopefully do all their dining and shopping in the location.”
“We know there are plenty of hotels near the airport,” said Ayers. “But we know that if promoted properly people will want to stay in Stapleton and everything the Shops at Northfield has to offer.” The hotel will have 102 units, and be 90,000 square feet. “We are extremely excited about adding our first hotel to the Stapleton community,” remarked Ayers. “It is another big step in our growth and developing our identity as a community.”
Staybridge is expecting more than just business travelers. “We know the high school will be hosting several tournaments and games year-round, and we will definitely be housing those guests,” said Staybridge Spokesperson Kevin Brooks. “And of course there is all of the events at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.” In the end, the Hotel is projected to be busiest every year at the time of the Stapleton High School prom.
