The joint venture behind the new Hampton Inn & Suites hotel in Midtown Miami recently announced to begin the construction of the 151-room property. Mayan Properties partnered with 3H Group Hotels and Arti Hersi, Inc. for the development.

Founded in 1994, Miami-based Mayan Properties is a fully integrated real estate investment merchant bank, one of the region’s most active private real estate investment and development firms that takes pride in a portfolio of over 60 commercial and residential properties throughout the U.S.

Located at the intersection of Biscayne Boulevard and Northwest 35th Street near the Miami Design District, along the City’s thriving Biscayne Boulevard corridor, the new Hampton Inn & Suites will include 4,400 square feet of retail space at street level and an eight-story parking garage. It joins a network of 2,000 Hampton Inn hotels around the world.

“Guests will benefit from the perks the Hampton brand offers, including a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee, daily complimentary hot breakfast and the Hilton Honors rewards program,” said 3H Group Hotels CEO Hiren Desai.

Boaz Ashbel, principal of Mayan Properties added: “The glaring void in the market is a mid-range hotel brand stylishly designed, which is where our Hampton Inn & Suites will meet demand from commercial and leisure visitors seeking a comfortable place to stay in a convenient location.”

The project’s architect is Israel Bigelman and Kobi Karp is in charge of exterior architecture. Monioni Design has been entrusted with the interior design, while Michael Comras of the Comras Company is handling the leasing of the retail space. Chattanooga, Tennessee-based  3H Group Hotels is under contract to operate the hotel.  The development is expected to open in the first quarter of 2016.
