Awakening in 1974, Super 8 in Aberdeen, South Dakota, launched its reign as a budget-friendly haven. This wasn’t just any motel. It was the brainchild of Ron Rivett and Dennis Brown. Their vision? To offer comfortable lodging at the revolutionary price of $8.88 a night. The name itself, Super 8, echoes this initial cost. Now, picture the Super 8 here in Denver, a descendant of that first humble motel. Rivett’s father-in-law, a stuccoer, inspired the original stucco exterior and English Tudor style, often built near established Holiday Inns. Super 8’s growth was swift. By 1978, Super 8 had spread from New York to Washington. It transitioned from a Midwestern venture to a nationwide phenomenon. It even boasts an international presence in countries like Canada, China, and Germany. The Super 8 chain has undergone significant transformations. In 2010, they upgraded their rooms with new bedding and redesigned bathrooms. More recently, in 2016, a brand overhaul saw 1,800 rooms in the US and Canada remodeled, including a fun giveaway of the old art and furniture. Today, Super 8 continues its legacy of offering dependable amenities. Here, you’ll find free Wi-Fi, a complimentary light breakfast, and ample parking. Some locations even feature a seasonal outdoor pool. So, the next time you see a Super 8, remember its humble beginnings and the innovative spirit that brought affordable comfort to travelers worldwide.
