Located just minutes from Vail airport and the surrounding valley at 135 Lindbergh Drive within the Airport Gateway Business Center, the dual-brand hotel will feature both a Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton and a Home2 Suites by Hilton.

The property will feature two meeting rooms totaling approximately 1,100 square feet, a complimentary hot breakfast with healthy options, free Wi-Fi, outdoor deck and firepits with majestic Rocky Mountain views, indoor pool and fitness center.

All guestrooms will have a flat screen HDTV, desk with ergonomic chair, refrigerator and coffee maker. Twenty-two of the 62 Hampton Inn & Suites rooms will be king suites with an expanded living area, while all 78 Home2 Suites rooms will have fully equipped kitchens to accommodate longer stays of seven to 30-plus days. The two-story lobby will offer fantastic views as well as local beer and wine on-tap for guests.

Leading the hotel’s development is hospitality industry veteran Chris Manley of Denver and developer Bryan Desmond of Eagle.

Manley, the former co-founder of 5 Senses Hospitality Management and chief operating officer of Denver-based hotel owner, operator and developer Stonebridge Companies, most recently acquired and renovated the 133-room AC Hotel by Marriott in Frisco, Colorado, while Desmond has developed residential and commercial real estate in Eagle County for nearly 25 years.  

Manley and Desmond have partnered with ArrowMark Partners to capitalize the project. The Denver-based asset manager focuses on providing middle market capital solutions to proven commercial real estate developers and sponsors. Since 2019, ArrowMark has invested over $4 billion in both debt and equity on behalf of its investors.

Project financing will be provided by FirstBank, now part of PNC.
