The first Staybridge Suites hotel in Idaho is planned for the Riverstone district of Coeur d’Alene.

InterContinental Group proposed a five-story, 96-room Staybridge Suites at a March 29 project review meeting at the city of Coeur d’Alene, said Ed Wagner,  the city’s building services director.

InterContinental has not applied for a design review hearing. The proposal also has parking issues to overcome, Wagner said.

“To me, it’s not real until they submit for a building permit,” Wagner said.

In a brief email to Idaho Business Review, InterContinental said it planned a 100-room Staybridge Suites with an estimated opening date in early 2019, said Ada Atzios, spokewoman at InterContinental.

Staybridge Suites is one of InterContinental’s 12 brands that include Holiday Inn, Candlewood Suites, Crowne Plaza, Kimpton and InterContinental. Staybridge was launched in 1997 with apartment-style suites for extended stays.

Staybridge has 226 hotels open across the Americas, Europe and the Middle East.

Staybridge has hotels in 40 states but none in Idaho hotels. The brand is present in all of Idaho’s surrounding states in Mukilteo, Seattle and Vancouver, Wash.; Portland, Ore.; Great Falls and Missoula, Mont.; Midvale and West Valley City, Utah; Cheyenne, Wyo.; and Reno and Las Vegas, Nev.
