Staybridge Suites Houston Stafford-Sugar Land is the first Staybridge Suites hotel to open with the innovative designs created by Savannah College of Art and Design (SACD) students.

First announced in 2009, SCAD, one of the top five interior design programmes in the nation, partnered with IHG to help completely refresh the Staybridge Suites standardized room décor packages. The Staybridge Suites Houston Stafford-Sugar Land features the Vista scheme, which focuses on fresh colour, organic patterns and subtle textures.

With four storeys and 90 guest rooms, the new Staybridge Suites Houston Stafford-Sugar Land offers three well-designed spacious suite options: deluxe studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom/two-bath.

With the new Vista design, each room includes several features intended to reduce environmental impact. Kitchen counter tops and bathroom vanities are made of quartz, an abundant natural mineral that is virtually maintenance-free and requires no chemical sealing. Modular carpet tiles are 100% recyclable and produce less waste upon installation and replacement. The use of Low-VOC paint throughout the suites helps eliminate toxic airborne chemicals. Tile selections incorporate pre- and post-consumer recycled material. Many fabrics will be dyed and printed in a revolutionary process that does not require water.

The new designs also take into account the unique needs of the extended-stay traveller, including flexibility and storage. Ottoman cubes are designed to provide extra seating and storage space, with upholstered tops that can be flipped over to support a laptop or food and drinks. A desk hutch has been added to the existing work surface, providing guests with the ability to store items and customize their workspace, and a built-in closet unit provides customizable shelving for clothing and luggage. Additional flexibility has been incorporated into the studio suites, where the extended nightstand functions as an added work surface and vanity area, and a bench stored underneath can serve as seating or double as a dressing bench.

Staybridge Suites Houston Stafford-Sugar Land is owned by Clifton Hospitality LP and operated by Alpha Hotel Management LLC under a license agreement with a company in the InterContinental Hotels Group.
