PLAINFIELD, IN— A 103-room Cambria Suites hotel will be built in Plainfield by a hotelier who already runs two hotels nearby, according to published reports. The full-service Cambria, from Choice Hotels International, features over-sized rooms, flat-screen TVs, DVD players and wireless high-speed Internet,and caters to younger business and leisure travelers. “I decided I wanted to bring an upscale hotel” to the I-70 interchange with 267, said Venkata Nattam, vp of Evergreen Motor Lodges. “There are no nice flags here” with full-service hotels, he said. Nattam and his brother, Dr. Screenivasa Nattam, a Fort Wayne doctor, bought a 71-room Super 8 Motel at the Hendricks County interchange in 2001 and built a 64-room Wingate Inn there in 2004. They also own two hotels in Franklin. The $9-million Cambria will be adjacent to the Super 8. Construction will start next month, and the hotel will open early next year. It will include a coffee bar serving breakfast and dinner, a convenience store, meeting space and a fitness center with pool and spa.
