IHG Hotels & Resorts has officially opened the company's first Atwell Suites property. The 90-room Atwell Suites Miami Brickell is part of a dual-brand development in Miami’s Brickell neighborhood, situated on the top floors of the building shared with the Hotel Indigo Miami Brickell, which opened in March 2021. IHG collaborated with Sunview Companies on the project.
“This offering was created to be a stylish, design-forward brand that has been absent in the rapidly growing all-suites segment," said Karen Gilbride, VP global Avid hotels and Atwell Suites, in a statement. "Designed alongside our Owner Advisory Board and with deep-rooted consumer insights on what guests need in this space, we are confident we created something that will impress guests, investors, and future owners.”
Atwell Suites is IHG Hotel & Resorts’ new brand in the all-suites upper-midscale category, supporting longer stays and for both business and leisure guests. The Atwell Suites hotel opening in Miami brings a new kind of all-suite accommodations to the coastal metropolis.
Voted as one of the “coolest neighborhoods in the world,” Brickell is known for dining, arts, and entertainment with close proximity to shopping, nightlife, restaurants, attractions and the Port of Miami, FTX Arena and Miami Metro rail.
The guestrooms have a counter-height desk and chair and an in-room wet bar. The lobby includes huddle areas and public co-working spaces as well as lounge areas. The property also has a signature scent of bamboo and green moss.
“The Atwell Suites all-suite design concept is the perfect complement to the Hotel Indigo Miami Brickell," said Pedro Villar, lead developer, Sunview Companies. "Atwell Suites’ guests will be able to enjoy all that both brands have to offer under one roof, along with spacious suites and spectacular views of the city, a high-rise bar, and more,"
The Atwell Suites portfolio will consist of both new-builds and conversion properties in primary, secondary and tertiary markets. There are currently more than 20 hotels in the pipeline across the U.S., with an additional two anticipated to open in 2022. One will be a prototypical new construction hotel in in Denver and the other will be a conversion in Austin.
