Vesta Opening Staybridge Suites, Glendale, AZ
SEPTEMBER 23, 2008. Rick Takach, president of Washington-based Vesta Hospitality, today announced the grand opening of Staybridge Suites in Glendale, Arizona, completing the hospitality firm's development of a resort-style campus that also includes Holiday Inn Express.
The 83,435-square-foot Staybridge Suites is located near the emerging Glendale Entertainment district at the intersection of Cabela Drive and Zanjero Boulevard. Within walking distance of the hotel are many restaurants, retail and entertainment options including Cardinals Stadium, The Glendale Arena, a 20-screen Loews Cineplex, Cabela's Sporting Goods, Gordon Biersch Brewery, Garduno's Margarita Factory and The Yard House.
The Glendale Entertainment District represents a new development area within the city of Glendale, with governing design principles dictating upscale building construction and architectural design. The design of both the Glendale Holiday Inn Express and the Staybridge Suites exceeds minimum brand standards and incorporates a resort pool with lush landscaping, an entry river with fountains, and extensive stonework complementing varying shades of stucco and decorative ironwork.
"This campus-style development is ideally situated, and creatively developed, to incorporate both hotels in a resort atmosphere - setting a new standard for this market," explains Takach.
