Choice Hotels continues to strengthen its leadership position in extended stay with Everhome Suites’ growth
NORTH BETHESDA, Md., June 6, 2024 — Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), one of the world’s largest lodging franchisors, continues to expand its Everhome Suites brand with recent groundbreakings in Portsmouth, New Hampshire; Rochester, New York; and Somerset, New Jersey, developed in collaboration with Highside Companies. The extended stay demand fundamentals make these locations an ideal fit for the Everhome Suites midscale brand, catering to both business and leisure travelers. Within the category, Choice has nearly 480 hotels open and more than 400 properties in the pipeline across its four extended stay brands, as of the first quarter of 2024.

Our leadership is made possible by Choice’s dedicated team of nearly 70 extended stay experts, in collaboration with our outstanding group of developers like Highside Companies.”
