The Staurolite Inn & Suites opened in 1973 and is constructed with staurolite schist stone native to the Black Hills of South Dakota. Through the years, the Staurolite Inn & Suites has maintained its position as the premier full service hotel in Brookings, South Dakota.

Conveniently located on Exit 132 of Interstate 29, the Staurolite is within walking distance of the new Wal-Mart Supercenter and several restaurants and retail outlets. Just across I-29, the Swiftel Center is the site of many rodeos, trade shows, concerts and special events. Adjacent to the Swiftel Center is the Larson Ice Center where youth and college ice hockey games are played. South Dakota State University and downtown Brookings are just a short drive away.

The Staurolite Inn & Suites is a recently-remodeled 102-room hotel featuring the Fireside Restaurant & Lounge and Casino 2000. With the indoor swimming pool and spa, the spacious rooms, and exceptional service, the Staurolite is the place to stay in Brookings.
