Choice Hotels continues to tap into the growing extended-stay travel sector by opening seven new Everhome Suites properties across the U.S. This move represents a major investment into a segment that blends affordability, comfort, and longer-term convenience – ideal for relocating professionals, traveling families, and budget-savvy guests seeking home-like accommodations.
New Locations and Brand Positioning
The latest Everhome Suites properties are strategically located in markets including Columbus, Ohio; Raleigh and Cary, North Carolina; Doral, Florida; Albuquerque, New Mexico; Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Auburn, Washington. Each new site reflects Choice’s expanded strategy to position Everhome Suites where demand for extended stays meets economic opportunity.
Designed with modern travelers in mind, the brand features spacious one- and two-bedroom suites with fully equipped kitchens, thoughtful layouts, and separate living areas. Guests benefit from workspaces, complimentary Wi-Fi, and amenities such as laundry facilities and fitness centers. By combining long-stay comforts with Choice’s value proposition, Everhome Suites aims to appeal to people relocating, extended business travelers, and families on long visits.
Choice Hotels leverages its scale in the extended-stay space, building on brands like MainStay Suites and Cambria, which already deliver strong returns on extended occupancy. Everhome Suites offers a fresh twist with targeted design and service choices positioned for today’s hybrid travelers.
Market Trends and Consumer Appeal
The extended-stay hotel segment has gained substantial traction in recent years, fueled by growing demand from remote workers, longer business assignments, and leisure guests seeking more space and kitchen amenities.
As urban housing costs and short-term rentals rise, brands like Everhome offer a compelling alternative – living flexibility without the commitment of leasing. With fully furnished suites, reliable daily housekeeping, and central locations in mid-sized cities, Everhome supports both short and multi-week stays.
These new openings come at a time when Choice is refreshing its brand portfolio and delivering new Stay Plus tiers that appeal to mobile-savvy guests. Being part of Choice’s loyalty ecosystem, Everhome Suites leverage points and perks – something independent extended-stay operators find hard to match.
Local communities in each new market benefit from increased lodging capacity, new job opportunities, and investment in local travel infrastructure. For travelers, the brand’s expansion adds affordable long-stay options in secondary and tertiary markets – often underserved in the extended-stay category.
Ultimately, Everhome Suites emerges as a compelling, cost-effective solution for extended stay needs, offering amenities and flexibility at a price that reflects Choice Hotels’ standards of hospitality. With seven new locations set to hit the map, the brand takes significant stride into the extended-stay conversation – and positions itself for growth in the evolving travel landscape.
