Three New Microtels in Texas to Open in July 2010

Construction of three new 83-room Microtel Inns & Suites hotels in Texas is scheduled to begin on 2 January 2010 with ceremonial groundbreakings all on the same day. The hotels are a joint venture of International Hospitality Development Alliances and Longhorn Lodging Partners of Texas.

Located near Dell’s corporate headquarters in Round Rock, adjacent to Cabela’s in Buda, and within two miles of SeaWorld in San Antonio, the three new hotels representing an investment of $21 million are being built by Galaxy Commercial Services of San Antonio, Texas and will consist of single and double rooms as well as suite accommodations.

Highlights and amenities of the new hotels will include 42” flat panel televisions, Microtel’s signature Dreamwell bedding package, cappuccino interior design scheme, swimming pools, hot tubs, fitness centers and the area’s first solar carports, through an agreement with iPark Solar, that will provide up to 30% of the facilities’ electrical energy needs.

“We are excited to be expanding the Microtel Inns & Suites brand into central Texas with the development of these outstanding hotels and look forward to welcoming both business and leisure travelers when they open on 1 July 2010,” said Ted Torres, chief executive officer for International Hospitality Development Alliances.

Microtel Inns & Suites Franchising, a member of the Wyndham Hotel Group family of lodging brands, is a chain of economy hotels featuring complimentary local and long-distance phone calls within the continental United States, high-speed wired and wireless Internet access, expanded cable television, in-room coffeemaker and continental breakfast.
