Issaquah Highlands Gets A Marriott Residence Inn
Written by: rebecca and filed Under Blog, Issaquah Highlands, Retail Development |
The last Retail Task Force Meeting didn’t uncover too much that wasn’t already known. Judd did mention that an Oregon business man who owns several hotels had recently signed a lease on the hotel space at The High Streets. Unfortunately, at the time, he was not sure what hotel he was going to build. Recently, things have changed.
As of last Wednesday night, it looks like he will be moving forward with the Residence Inn brand under the Marriott umbrella. I think this makes total sense.
People don’t really want to come to Issaquah (as much as I love this place I call home) to spend a weekend or a night or two for leisure. They are more apt to come because they are here from out of town visiting friends or family or possibly relocating to the area and need a place to stay until they find a permanent home. And with Swedish building a hospital 3 blocks away, it will also be a convenient place for out of town guests to be close to loved ones who have the unfortunate privilege of being a guest of the hospital.
This is perfect for this brand whose core competency is catering to guests who have longer stays. For more details on what a Residence Inn offers travelers, check out their website.
