Leisure Real Estate Advisors, LLC is pleased to announce that it has been selected as exclusive marketing agent for the Fairfield Inn & Suites, Hutchinson, KS. This 89 room Fairfield Inn & Suites is among the 2 top rated hotels in Hutchinson. It also represents the Marriott “Inn & Suites” prototype. Along with a very attractive top line revenue and net income, it is well rated on the third-party travel sites. It features one of the best and most visible locations in town, as it is located in the most concentrated retail area in the area. Hutchinson, along the South Hutchinson, is a midsized Kansas town of 43,000, with numerous demand generators. Hutch is located in Reno County with a population of over 60,000. The hotel is only a 45-minute drive down K-96 to the Dwight D. Eisenhower National Airport in Wichita.
Hutchinson has historically been a very good hospitality market.

Downtown Hutch has also received Star Bonds for the redevelopment of the downtown area and includes upgrades to the Cosmosphere, renovations to Memorial Hall, and the addition of the Landmark Building apartment project.
Finally, the Department of Corrections has proposed a $450M new correctional facility in Hutch, which will replace the existing aging facility. The Department has been working on it for years and the project is currently before the 2025 legislative session.
