AmericInn Grand Opening-11/16/22
The newest hotel in northern Minnesota is hosting a grand opening on November 17, 2022, in International Falls. The AmericInn by Wyndham is an 85-guestroom property with a meeting room for 66, a breakfast room, exercise room and pub. The pool has new technology utilizing both traditional equipment backed up by a new ultra violet that combines with natural light from large windows to give a beach-like feel. “We have had guest comments on the brightness, how clean and modern the look is, both inside and out,” said Jim Makowsky, Regional Manager for WDA Properties, the hotel’s management company. “We are excited to be in International Falls. The community has been so welcoming and inviting; these are true characteristics of the AmericInn philosophy.”
The cost to build was nearly 13 million dollars. Initially this project started before covid in 2019. It was put on hold for a while and was resurrected in 2021. Construction began the summer of 2021, and the hotel quietly opened its doors late summer of 2022. The building design is only the second of its type, the first is in San Angelo, Texas. This new design brings a whole new look to AmericInn. General Manager Emily Kvitek said, “I’m proud of how welcoming and clean the property is. This is a reflection of the dedication and work ethic of our new staff.”
Director of Sales for the property, Kayla Cluff, added, “I’m overwhelmed with the support the community has shown for the new AmericInn by Wyndham.” The Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting is Thursday, November 17, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., 2500 Keenan Drive, International Falls, MN.
Lakes Country 104.1 and KGHS will be live from the AmericInn on Thursday from 11:30 to 1:30.
