SUN Development & Management Corporation

SUN was formed in 1989 by Bharat, Harshad and Nayna Patel with the purchase of a single hotel in Indianapolis, Indiana. Since its inception, the company has steadily grown its portfolio – consistently delivering exceptional experiences to its guests and employees.

Since then SUN has achieved continued success. Today, SUN's portfolio of fine hotels includes premier brands such as Embassy Suites, Hilton Garden Inn, Homewood Suites, Hampton Inn & Suites, TownePlace Suites, SpringHill Suites, Fairfield Inn and Suites, Holiday Inn & Suites, Holiday Inn Express, Staybridge Suites, Candlewood Suites and Comfort Suites.

SUN's success can be attributed to its dedicated, hands-on management team comprised of both key construction and property management personnel. The management team's blueprint for sustained growth and top quality hotel development is achieved through a commitment to superior architecture, advanced construction techniques, centralized management and most importantly, guest preference.

We create loyal relationships by delivering what was promised with a focus on accountability and conducting our business with integrity. Our second responsibility is to our employees, who are critical in order for us to fulfill our responsibility to our guests.
