A new extended stay hotel is scheduled to open in February in the Queensgate Drive area in Richland.

The Home2 Suites by Hilton Richland is next door to the Queensgate 12 Cinema.

Hotel officials say the project is a result of growth in the Richland Queensgate area and in the Tri-Cities as a whole. It’s within walking distance to restaurants and shopping.

The four-story hotel features modern styling and  120 guest suites.

The 18,561-square-foot building includes lobby space called the Oasis, saline (chemical-free) pool and spa; Home2Mkt, a 24/7 on-site store with items ranging from groceries to toiletries; a business center, and Spin2Cycle, a fitness and laundry center.

The hotel’s outdoor space includes a fire pit with expansive seating area, gas barbecues and a walking trail for pets.

Western States Lodging & Management is building the $9 million project at 2861 Lincoln Landing. The land cost $1.4 million.

Rimrock Construction Co. of Draper, Utah, is the general contractor.

Vanzeben Architecture of Ogden, Utah, is the architect.
