75 Microtel Hotels Planned for Canada

More than 75 new construction Microtel Inns & Suites are expected to open in Canada over the next 25 years as part of a master development agreement between Wyndham Hotel Group and MasterBUILT Hotels.

The Microtel Inns & Suites brand is a chain of new construction only economy hotels located throughout North America, South America and Asia offering an array of amenities that include complimentary local and long-distance phone calls within the continental United States, free high-speed wired and wireless internet access, and complimentary continental breakfast. Most properties also offer meeting and fitness facilities, swimming pool and guest laundry and select properties allow pets and offer print, copy and fax services.

Led by Jay Westman and Marc Staniloff, MasterBUILT Hotels is a joint venture between JWI Investments LP, parent company of Western Canadian home builder Jayman MasterBUILT, and Superior Lodging Corp., master developer of Wyndham Hotel Group’s Super 8 brand in Canada.

“Marc’s leadership has proven to be an outstanding asset in helping grow the Super 8 brand in Canada and we have no doubt that he will help do the same with our award winning Microtel brand,” said Eric Danziger, Wyndham Hotel Group president and CEO. “His knowledge of the market and passion for the industry are unparalleled. With his dedication and determination, Microtel will become a household name among travelers in Canada.”

Staniloff, along with Superior Lodging Corp., signed a master development agreement for the Super 8 brand in Canada in 1992 and, through his 19 year tenure, has grown the brand’s portfolio to include approximately 130 Super 8 hotels throughout every province in Canada. Staniloff and Superior also have a portfolio of three Wingate by Wyndham hotels in the country.

“The Canadian market continues to show great potential and is on the upswing, making now the right time to bring the Microtel brand to the country in a big way,” said Staniloff. “We couldn’t be more pleased to be working with Wyndham Hotel Group again to make that happen.”

Currently, the Microtel Inns & Suites brand has two hotels open in Canada, one in Parry Sound, ON and another in Woodstock, ON. The brand also has previously signed agreements for an additional 10 hotels in the country.
