About Paladin Hotels
Building the future of modern extended-stay hospitality in Southern California.
Our Story
Paladin Hotels is the hospitality division of Paladin Equity Capital, a premier real estate investment and development firm based in San Marino, California.
In 2022, we proudly developed and opened the inaugural Everhome Suites in Corona, California. This milestone marked the very first property of Choice Hotels' newest midscale extended-stay brand to open its doors worldwide.
Today, our portfolio has grown to include four Everhome Suites properties, bringing 450 total keys to Southern California's rapidly expanding Inland Empire. We combine deep development expertise with hands-on, detail-oriented hospitality management to create exceptional experiences for our guests and strong returns for our investors.
