New Extended Stay Value Place Hotel To Be Ready For Occupany Next Spring -- Bakken, North Dakota, USA

"Anonymous" alerted me to this story earlier in September, see my quick update, September 9, 2011.

Developers "broke ground" for an extended-stay hotel, Value Place Hotel, for the new Granite Peak development north of Williston.

This is about four miles north of Williston, on US Highway, north on "milliondollarway," I might add. It's on the northeast corner of the Epping turning.

It will sit on the 720-acre industrial park-hotel-truck-stop complex, perhaps the largest complex in the area. The entire site is referred to as the Bakken Industrial Park.

"We have found that Williston is an exceptional place to do business. The 'can do, let's get it done' attitude and the cooperation we have experienced from the city and county has truly been refreshing," Chairman and CEO of Nakota Development of Jacksonville, Fla. Arthur Cahoon said.


The Value Place hotel is slated to open in the late spring of 2012. The hotel will feature 124 all-suite efficiency units each containing its own kitchenette. Pre-opening lease commitments are currently being accepted. Suites will be available for a minimum of one week at a time.
