May 18, 2010 - Cooper Hotels today announced the official opening of its newest hotel and its third hotel at Detroit Metro Airport, the 126-room, 38-suite Hampton Inn & Suites Detroit/Airport-Romulus, located at 31700 Smith Road. Ten years ago to the day on May 2000, Cooper opened its first hotel at the airport, the Hilton Garden Inn Detroit Metro Airport, located adjacent to the new hotel. The Memphis-based hotel company also has an Embassy Suites hotel at the airport, which opened at 12:01 a.m. on January 1, 2008.

The three Cooper Hotels, all affiliated franchises with Hilton Worldwide, have a combined 442 rooms and suites. The hotels employ 150 team members with a payroll of over $3.5 million.

"Romulus is proud to be the home of the new Hampton Inn & Suites at Detroit Metro Airport," said Romulus Mayor Alan Lambert. "This outstanding new hotel will give business and leisure travelers visiting Romulus and the metro Detroit area a quality, affordable and convenient place to stay. Our community is truly happy to welcome the investments and the jobs that the new Hampton Inn & Suites will help attract to Romulus."

With its airport location and easy access to I-94, the new Hampton Inn & Suites hotel is just minutes from all downtown and Ann Arbor attractions. A few of the hotel's amenities include complimentary high-speed Internet access, in-room refrigerators and microwave ovens, coffee makers and state-of-the-art 37-inch HD televisions.

"Hampton Hotels combine quality, service, comfort and plenty of value-added extras, making Hampton the brand of choice in the marketplace today," said Pace Cooper, president and CEO of Cooper Hotels. "Providing high quality accommodations and amenities combined with the friendly service of our team members, all backed by the 100% Hampton Satisfaction Guarantee, is why we will be successful in this market."

Hampton Inn & Suites hotels were designed to accommodate the lodging needs of both transient customers and guests staying three or more nights, including both business and leisure travelers. Unlike a typical Hampton Inn, the new Hampton Inn & Suites hotel combines traditional guest rooms with larger suite rooms in a single property.
