Westfield, Ind. — The City of Westfield announced today the first hotel to locate in the vicinity of Grand Park Sports Campus.
The Cambria Suites and Hotel will be located in the Grand Park Village development across 186th Street from the sports campus.
“We're pleased to make this exciting announcement,” said Westfield Mayor Andy Cook. “We've worked hard to create the positive conditions for the hospitality industry to grow in Westfield so it’s rewarding to see that our economic development strategy is paying off.”
The 110,000 square foot Cambria Suites and Hotel will feature 150 rooms, described as oversized suites with plenty of room to work and play. The hotel will feature 5,000 square feet of meeting and conference space. It is being developed as a joint venture of Ceres Enterprises LLC and Orlean Group LLC.

Grand Park has exceeded its first year projections with 870,000 visits since opening in March.
