business travelers.

a sleeper sofa, a TV and VCR, a work desk with a data port, two
phones with voice-mail message service, an iron and ironing board
and a kitchen and wet bar area with a refrigerator, a microwave, a
coffeemaker and fresh coffee.
Taking Care of Business suites, which will feature additional
in-room amenities for the corporate traveler, also will be
offered.
The property will contain a business center with computers, a
fax machine, a modem and a copier as well as 1,500 square feet of
divisible meeting space.
Additional amenities will include complimentary continental
breakfast buffet daily, USA Today newspapers and free local phone
calls.

facility, a swimming pool and an exercise room.
In addition to the Las Vegas project, Prime also will develop an
AmeriSuites property in Denver as part of its growth plan.

properties by 1998.
Prime's AmeriSuites lineup includes more than 30 properties
throughout the U.S., and another 25 hotels are under
construction.
