December 4, 2012: for some reason we were led to believe the Winterton Suites were going to be in downtown Williston. See post below and all the comments. It turns out Winterton Suites is located at 340 26th Street East if I understand the website correctly. This is on the northeast side of Williston, but again, I have been wrong before when trying to locate new facilities on Google maps. Regardless, Winterton Suites says they are now taking reservations for their Williston motel.

From a reader:Has anyone heard of Winterton Suites? They have a luxury suite (small hotel) in Roosevelt,Utah. I see they are planning a downtown Williston hotel...with only 25 rooms and supposed to be ready by spring of 2012, I wonder if it is going to be a rehabilitaded building somewhere downtown? Here is the link announcing the coming soon to Williston.Does anyone know anything more? Any links to press releases?

Only 25 rooms makes me think they might be renovating the Plainsman Hotel in downtown Williston, an iconic landmark, but sometimes renovating is more expensive and more work than simply putting up a new building.
Luxury suites for CEOs, upper level managers of the many oil and oil service companies in the Williston area?
If this is true, luxury suites downtown, it speaks volumes about where we are in the timeline of this boom.
