ROCKVILLE, Md. - Aug. 27, 2015 // PRNewswire // - Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), one of the world's largest hotel companies, announced it has signed an agreement with franchise partners Ceres Development and Orlean Enterprises, to develop a new Cambria hotel & suites in Bloomington, MN.

The hotel will serve Mall of America visitors as well as the surrounding area.

"Cambria hotels & suites continues to experience tremendous growth," said Michael Murphy, senior vice president, Upscale Brands, Choice Hotels International. "This is a great opportunity for our brand, and we're thrilled to once again partner with Ceres to become neighbors with a world-class attraction like the Mall of America."

"Cambria hotels & suites will be a wonderful new addition for travelers seeking an upscale full-service hotel at an affordable price. We're excited to provide a top-notch product and exceptional service to the robust Mall of America Market," said David Crisafi, President of Ceres Enterprises, LLC.

Designed as a business travel and leisure brand, all Cambria hotels are new-construction and feature a larger lobby to give guests a warmer, engaging social atmosphere; oversized rooms that are larger than standard hotel rooms and include separate living, working and sleeping space; and the latest technology that allows guests to stay connected while they travel.
