Jefferson City receives its first extended-stay property, Candlewood Suites
InterContinental Hotels Group announced today that the new 80-room Candlewood Suites Jefferson City recently opened, representing another addition to the midscale brand’s portfolio of extended-stay hotels. There are now four Candlewood Suites hotels with more than 350 guestrooms in the state of Missouri with the addition of the Candlewood Suites Jefferson City. The InterContinental Hotels Group portfolio in Missouri is represented by five of its brands, including the upscale, full service, limited service, upscale extended stay and mid-scale extended stay segments with 60 hotels and more than 7,300 rooms.
Guests at the new 45,000 sq.-ft. extended-stay property can take advantage of the hotel’s just-like-home complimentary amenities, including high-speed internet access, free local phone calls, free on-site guest laundry and a 24-hour fitness center. Unique to Candlewood Suites, guests can also enjoy the convenience of the Candlewood Cupboard®, where a variety of beverages, breakfast items, snacks, frozen entrees and sundries can be purchased on the honor system at any time, as well as the Gazebo Grill where guests can enjoy cooking out as they would at home. Additionally, guests of the Candlewood Suites Jefferson City can visit the Lending Library, where movies and music are available for use in guestrooms, which all feature a VCR/DVD and CD player. The Candlewood Suites Jefferson City also offers complimentary guest parking, same-day laundry and valet and a business center.
“Candlewood Suites hotels are carefully designed to meet the particular needs of longer-staying guests,” said Gina LaBarre, vice president, Brand Management, Candlewood Suites. “When business or personal matters require travel for a week or more, guests find that the design of our guest suites and the amenities we provide allow them to live comfortably.”
Standard Candlewood Suites guestrooms feature studio or one-bedroom suite floor plans with a full kitchen, large workspace with comfortable desk chair and overhead lighting, overstuffed recliner, VCR/DVD and CD player and two-line telephones with voice mail.
"We are thrilled not only to be Jefferson City’s very first Candlewood Suites, but also to be the capital’s first extended stay hotel,” said Trey Propes, general manager. “Candlewood Suites’ unique amenities enable our guests to live according to their own schedule and needs, not the hotel’s."
The new property is conveniently located off of Hwy. 50 and Truman Blvd. close to Hwy 54 and Hwy 63 just minutes from key area attractions, which include Capital Mall and the State Capital. Several key businesses are also close by, such as Johnson Controls, Missouri Farm Bureau Insurance, Unilever, ABB Inc., Learfield Communications Inc. and state government and agencies. A number of shops and restaurants are within walking distance to the hotel.
