Gaylord, MI – May 24, 2017 – The 83-room Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott in Gaylord, Michigan is scheduled to open this Friday, May 26, 2017 with its smart, inventive public space and guest room design, and its bright and inviting décor. Located at 826 Carpenter Street, the Fairfield Inn & Suites Gaylord will operate as a Marriott franchise, owned by TC Triumph and managed by North Mich Hospitality Management of Traverse City, Michigan.
Located just two miles from Gaylord Regional Airport and five minutes from downtown, the Fairfield Inn & Suites Gaylord offers guests convenient access to Mackinac Island, Otsego Lake, Elk Park and Alpine Village.
“Delivering both function and comfort, our new design and décor elevate the Fairfield brand, setting a new standard in the moderate tier category,” said Callette Nielsen, vice president and global brand manager, Fairfield Inn & Suites. “At Fairfield Inn & Suites, we provide an easy, positive and productive travel experience, as well as the promise of consistent and reliable service at an exceptional value. The Fairfield Inn & Suites Gaylord is a truly stunning example of the brand’s contemporary look and feel, and we are pleased to introduce Fairfield Inn & Suites hotels in the Gaylord area.”
From the moment they arrive, guests are welcomed by the hotel’s modern, bright new design features, including an updated exterior and an inviting glass entrance that ushers them into the hotel. Once inside, guests experience the hotel’s open public space featuring natural light and views throughout the lobby to connect the indoors with the outdoors. Consistent with the Fairfield brand’s heritage of great service and a warm welcome, guests are greeted by associates who can easily move from behind the angled front desk to interact and answer questions.
In the lobby area, guests can choose to be productive, relax or enjoy breakfast or a snack in a modern and flexible environment featuring a vibrant, natural color palette of greens, blues and oranges. Guests can also unwind in the lobby’s inviting living area ― whose focal points include a natural stone hearth, organic-shaped sofa and lounge chair, and unique local features — or they can grab a drink or snack item from the 24/7 Corner Market.
The breakfast area’s signature farm table provides a central gathering place where guests can watch television, meet up with colleagues or get work done.
The signature “smart” room décor warmly welcomes guests into a comfortable, productive and restful environment. Flexible and functional, the guest room includes a well-designed work area, an ergonomic chair, task lighting and electrical outlets where guests need them. A curved, mobile desk enables guests to create their own work space, while also optimizing their television viewing. The hotel also features Fairfield Inn’s newest Guest Enhancement Television which allows guests to stream their favorite movies, music, and shows, like Netflix, Hulu, and YouTube.
Inspired by nature, the hotel’s thoughtfully designed rooms and suites place the living and working area near the window to allow for more natural light and views. Building on this natural design, the room décor features organic patterns and fresh colors, blending wood tones with bright pops of color. The new design also places the sleeping area toward the middle of the room, helping to give guests a better night’s sleep on plush mattresses, as well as easier access to the bathroom and wardrobe.
Additional hotel amenities include a lobby bar, an indoor saltwater swimming pool with a whirlpool spa, an exercise room, two electric-car charging stations, complimentary Wi-Fi, as well as fax and copy services.
