St. Louis-based hotel owner, operator and developer, Midas Hospitality has acquired the Candlewood Suites in Champaign, Ill that is set to open in December. Midas Hospitality also operates a Candlewood Suites in Paducah, Ky. that opened in July 2008 and has quickly become a local market leader in the extended-stay segment.

With the acquisition of the 83-room, Candlewood Suites Champaign, David Robert, president, Midas Hospitality, states, “The addition of the Candlewood Suites to the Midas hotel portfolio further reinforces our aggressive, yet strategic company growth.”

Kurt Furlong, SVP Sales and Marketing, states “The hotel is located within two-and-a-half miles of the 42,000 student campus of the University of Illinois and will be a great fit for the extended-stay customer backed by IHG, the world`s largest hotel group by number of rooms.”

The new Candlewood Suites is located in the northwest quadrant of the neighboring cities of Champaign and Urbana, proximate to the intersection of interstate highways I-57 and I-74.

Unique to Candlewood Suites, guests can also enjoy the convenience of the Candlewood Cupboard, where a variety of beverages, breakfast items, snacks, frozen entrees and sundries will be available for purcase on the honor system at any time and where guests can enjoy complimentary Juan Valdez freshly brewed coffee. Additionally, guests of the Candlewood Suites Champagne can visit the free Lending Library, where movies and music will be available for use in guestrooms, which all feature a DVD and CD player.
