STERLING HEIGHTS, MI-A new $10.5-million hotel and entertainment facility has opened in Southeastern Michigan. The Best Western Sterling Inn Banquet and Conference Center recently debuted its indoor water park, the first of its kind in the hotel industry in the state.

The company opened a 52,000-sf addition to the hotel, including 90 more guest rooms. The indoor water park, attached to the hotel, takes up about 23,000 sf. Victor Martin, the hotel owner, says the attraction is the first of its kind in the state.”It’s something that’s done pretty well in resort areas; there’s one in Ohio by Cedar Point, and several in Wisconsin,” he tells GlobeSt.com. “There starting to do it more and more in other states.”

He said the park, with a 5,000-sf zero entry swimming pool, a three story water slide and a lazy river, has been a major draw for the 250-room hotel at the corner of 15 Mile Road and Van Dyke Avenue.
