MIAMI—Midtown Miami is getting a Hampton Inn & Suites. Miami-based Mayan Properties is partnering with the principals of 3H Group Hotels and Arti Hersi on the project.

Construction is beginning on the hotel at a time when Miami is posting record-setting levels of business and leisure tourism. The 151-key hotel will rise along the city's Biscayne Boulevard corridor at the intersection of Biscayne Boulevard and Northwest 35th Street near the mixed-use Midtown Miami complex and the Miami Design District.

“We're bullish on Midtown Miami and the Biscayne Boulevard corridor, which is seeing a tremendous level of residential development and commercial activity this cycle,” says Mayan principal Boaz Ashbel. “The glaring void in the market is a mid-range hotel brand stylishly designed, which is where our Hampton Inn & Suites will meet demand from commercial and leisure visitors seeking a comfortable place to stay in a convenient location.”
