Quick Facts Hotel Development in Southeast Michigan, 2008 Hotel Development in Southeast Michigan – 2008 The Southeast Michigan region has hosted numerous national events in the recent past such as Super Bowl XL and the NCAA Tournament, and most recently the 90th PGA Championship at Oakland Hills. The demand for hotel space has been growing and will continue to do so, especially as more Michigan residents decide to spend their vacations locally. What does the region’s hotel inventory look like and what is planned for the future? Since 2000, the region has added over 12,000* hotel rooms and 5.4 million square feet of hotel development space. * There are an additional 6,791 hotel rooms where the year built was not available. Many of these were most likely built since 2000. Over $1.6 billion have been invested in hotel development since 2000. There are 313 hotels in Southeast Michigan with a total of 41,394 rooms. There are 26 major hotel chains/affiliates in Southeast Michigan. The largest hotel in the region, based on number of rooms, is the Marriott Hotel at Renaissance Center with 1,298 rooms. Marriott International, Inc. has the largest presence in the region with 49 hotels and 8,074 rooms. The City of Detroit has the highest number of hotel rooms with 5,731. This includes the new Greektown Casino Hotel, currently under construction with 400 rooms, and the recently opened MGM Grand and Motor City Casino Hotels, also with 400 rooms each. The City of Romulus, home to Detroit Metropolitan Airport, has 28 major hotels with 4,276 rooms, the second-highest number in the Southeast Michigan region. In 2006 there were 11, 897 hotel jobs in the region. Since then, approximately 600 more jobs have been added. Future Outlook: There are 18 hotels (2,088 rooms) and over 850,000 square feet of space planned or under construction, with a potential 800 more jobs for the region. Hotel data were derived from SEMCOG’s development monitoring program which tracks nonresidential development occurring in Southeast Michigan. While not all-inclusive, every effort was made to include hotels part of a major chain or affiliate. Only hotels located in Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, Washtenaw, and Wayne counties were included.

This foodservice giant with more than 30,000 restaurants in 100 countries provides food to nearly 50 million customers each day, but decades of expansion, sales growth, and profi ts made the burger giant complacent. By focusing on getting bigger, not better, the company stumbled in 2002, recording its fi rst losing quarter. By 2003, U.S. sales had fl attened, as many consumers were turning to healthier options and restaurants with more upscale menu items, a segment sometimes referred to as “ fast - casual ” . Morgan Spurlock’ s fi lm Super Size Me , released in 2004, also seriously diminished the public image of the quick - service chain, as moviegoers watched Spurlock become ill and gain 25 pounds after eating only McDonald’ s food for one month. With pressure to get back on track, it was time for McDonald ’ s to rethink the business.

  • Hotels Moving Into Old Buildings by AMY ZIPKINMARCH 10, 2014
    BUSINESS DAY Hotels Moving Into Old Buildings By AMY ZIPKINMARCH 10, 2014 The vault from the Cotton Exchange is used as office space at the Cotton Exchange Hotel in New Orleans. Credit William Widmer for The New York Times Reuse and recycle are taking on new meaning for hotels. The Lamb’s Theater, a longtime fixture on West 44th Street inside the Manhattan Church of the Nazarene, is now the luxury Chatwal Hotel. In Philadelphia, the previously empty Lafayette Building near Independence Hall opened in 2012 as the Hotel Monaco. In New Orleans, new life is being breathed into the Cotton Exchange Hotel off Bourbon Street. As the hotel industry shakes off recession doldrums and new hotels are being built, the once-standard chain hotel has a sibling, hotels repurposed from existing buildings like offices, warehouses and hospitals. Behind the push is the changing tastes of younger travelers, who flock to cities and are bringing an urban sensibility to their accommodations. “Travelers don’t want consistency and reliability to come at the expense of authenticity,” said Henry Harteveldt, a travel analyst for the research firm Hudson Crossing. The adaptive-use hotel is a presence in smaller cities like Amarillo, Tex.; Pittsburgh; and Stamford, Conn.; as well as big cities like New York, Washington, Boston and New Orleans. “Brands have realized standardization doesn’t mean as much to guests as it did in the past,” said Bjorn Hanson, divisional dean of the Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism and Sports Management at New York University. Executives at Marriott estimate that 10 percent to 20 percent of their Courtyards opening this year will have had other uses.
