BROOKLYN PARK, Minn. – June 7, 2017 — Brooklyn Park, Minn. – an area which hasn't experienced a newly built hotel since 1998 – is getting ready to welcome two hotels.

A groundbreaking ceremony was recently held for two Hilton hotels: a 100-room Hampton Inn and a 107-room Home2 Suites. The $28 million development will open in the summer of 2018. The Hampton Inn, located at 9470 W. Broadway, is a 63,301-square-foot hotel that will feature an indoor pool, meeting room, and fitness center. Home2 Suites, located at 9490 W. Broadway, is a 57,977-square-foot hotel that will offer separate living and bedroom space, a fully-equipped kitchen, community living areas, laundry facilities, fitness center, and an indoor pool. Midas Hospitality, a premier hotel management group, will develop and manage the hotels. The builder is MC Hotel Construction, a general contractor specializing in new hotel construction and renovations, which is the sister company of Midas Hospitality. The architecture firm is Gray Design Group, and all three companies are based in St. Louis, MO. CFSB is financing Hampton Inn, and Flagship Bank is financing Home 2 Suites. CFSB is based in Benton, KY and Flagship Bank is in MN. "The Hampton Inn and Home2 dual concept, backed by one of the industry's best brands Hilton, will serve both the extended stay and transient customers in the Brooklyn Park market," said Kurt Furlong, Midas Hospitality's Principal and Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "This is the first Minnesota development for our company, so it's a monumental step for Midas Hospitality and we look forward to joining the Brooklyn Park community."
