All-Suite, Extended-Stay Hotels

All-suite hotels typically offer approximately 25 percent more space for the same amount of money as the regular hotel in the same price range. The additional space is usually in the form of a lounge and possi­bly a kitchenette area.

Embassy Suites, owned and operated by the Promus Corporation; Residence Inns, Fairfield Suites, and Town-Place Suites, all by Marriott, Extended Stay America; Homewood Suites; and Guest Quarters are the market leaders in the all-suites, extended-stay segment of the lodging industry. Several of the major hotel chains have all-suite, extended-stay subsidiaries, including Radisson, Choice Hotels (that dominate the econ­omy all-suite segment with Comfort and Quality Suites), ITT Sheraton Suites, Hilton Suites, Homegate Studios, and Suites by Wyndham Hotels. These properties provide a closer-to-home feeling for guests who may be relocating or attending seminars, or are on work-related projects that ne­cessitate a stay of greater than about five days.

There are now almost 1,000 extended-stay properties. Many of these properties have business centers and offer services like grocery shopping and laundry/dry cleaning. The designers of extended-stay properties real­ize that guests prefer a home-like atmosphere. Accordingly, many proper­ties are built to encourage a community feeling, which allows guests to informally interact.
