IHG recently celebrated the ceremonial
groundbreaking of a new Even hotel in suburban Miami, USA.
Scheduled to open in time for the busy summer
travel season in 2024, the Even Hotel Sweetwater - Doral will
promote fitness through a choice of three room types containing
varying exercise amenities, ranging from yoga mats to Peloton
bikes, along with access to its state-of-the-art athletic
studio.
Guests will also be able to select from a range of
health-conscious and indulgent meals, snacks and beverages from
the new Even Kitchen & Bar restaurant and adjacent 24/7 market.
In addition to its proximity to the culture and
commerce of the Doral neighborhood, Even Hotel Sweetwater – Doral
will be located within 15 miles of both
Miami International Airport and downtown Miami, and a 30-minute
drive to Miami Beach and South Beach.
Guests will be able to walk to the
nearby Dolphin Mall for a day of shopping or enjoy the scenic
parks and best-in-class golf courses that have defined the
community’s evolution.
“The groundbreaking of Even Hotel
Sweetwater – Doral is the latest milestone in an exciting future
for the brand, with an Americas pipeline that will expand its
regional estate by nearly 50 percent in the coming years and a new
prototype that will both promote wellness among guests and
streamline costs and operations for owners,” said Matt Frankiewicz,
SVP, Development, Americas for IHG Hotels & Resorts. “Even Hotels’ emphasis
on traveling and living well aligns perfectly with Miami and the
thriving Doral community. We look forward to establishing this
hotel as a must-visit travel destination and model representation
of all that Even Hotels can offer for owners and guests.”
IHG is collaborating on Even Hotel Sweetwater –
Doral with owner and developer ASI Diaz Doral Hotel Investment
Group (an affiliate of Miami-based residential and commercial
real estate company ASI Global), architect Tony Rodriguez-Tellaheche
and interior designer Kathy Kesler.
The project extends IHG’s
engagement with ASI Global beyond their previous development of
the nearby Staybridge Suites Miami International Airport.
Luis Prado, President and Principal of ASI Diaz
Doral Hotel Investment Group, said, “Miami’s reemergence as a
coveted travel destination has fueled the rise of Doral and
similar culture-rich communities, and increased demand for broader
hotel options that suit guests’ varying lifestyles and routines.
We are thrilled to extend our relationship with IHG and introduce
the Even Hotels brand to leisure and business travelers within a
new section of our city.”
Launched as a hotel brand with
wellness at its core, IHG's portfolio of Even Hotels currently
includes more than 50 open or in pipeline hotels. The brand’s
strong momentum in the Americas includes upcoming
openings in Austin and Waco, Tex., Beaverton, Ore. and Bozeman,
Mont.
