Beltrami County: Bemidji Lands Major Hotel Project
Beltrami County (trfnews.i234.me) — Breaking news out of Bemidji this Tuesday afternoon: city officials are expected to announce a major development project bringing a new hotel and convention center to the area.
According to early information, Bemidji has reached a deal for a new 96-room Fairfield Inn & Suites with an attached convention center. The project will be located in the city’s rail corridor near downtown Bemidji. Officials say more details will be released later today, including project timelines, design renderings, and partnership details.
This development represents a significant investment in Bemidji’s downtown area, expected to boost tourism, business events, and local commerce. City leaders have long sought to attract larger gatherings and conferences to support restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues in the downtown district.
The Fairfield Inn brand, part of Marriott International, is known for offering comfortable lodging with modern amenities. The addition of a connected convention center is expected to make Bemidji a more competitive destination for regional meetings and trade events.
TRF News will continue to follow this developing story and provide updates as more information becomes available from city officials and project developers later today.
