“We are pleased to open our fifth Marriott hotel in Philadelphia’s western suburbs,” said Clarke Blynn, owner of Gulph Creek Development, the developer. “We are particularly excited about Fairfield Inn & Suites’ new look, which is a fresh, modern appearance. In addition, our location on the 15-mile Chester Valley Trail will enable our guests to bike and jog right out our back door.”
The new décor package is warm, timeless, forward-thinking, and inviting with simple nods back to the brand’s heritage. Specific elements meant to evoke feelings from the Fairfield Farm include a farmhouse table in the lobby for gathering and connecting, photography from the Fairfield Farm serving as artwork in the lobby and guest rooms, natural materials and unique textures featured throughout, and a history wall in every property showcasing the brand’s roots.
The new guestroom design is impactful, unique and addresses the functional needs of the Fairfield guest for a seamless experience. The room was designed with the modern traveler’s needs to stay productive on the road in mind without overcomplicating the guestroom. Each room features a modern lounge chair, serving as both functional and comfortable to either work or relax in. The artwork in the room takes center stage with the window treatment acting as a focal point, displaying photography taken at the Fairfield Farm. The material is sheer and allows light to pass through the photography, warming up the room and creating a comfortable environment. The guestrooms also feature an enhanced 55-inch TV system with streaming capabilities, a mini-refrigerator, coffeemaker and microwave. Each suite offers a comfortable sofa, spacious living area and an extra 55-inch TV.
Additional hotel amenities include an indoor swimming pool, a fitness center, valet laundry service, complimentary Wi-Fi, as well as fax and copy services, and offers three outdoor patios, with one that overlooks the adjacent reservoir. A complimentary hot breakfast, featuring oatmeal, scrambled eggs, sausage, make-your-own waffles and other healthy items, such as fruit, yogurt, and whole grain cereals and breads is also available.
