History

Introduced in May 1997, the concept arose out of rebranding former Fairfield Suites properties which featured an all-suite layout into a brand of its own. These featured a bedroom, living area and kitchen. Rooms included a microwave, small refrigerator, iron and hair dryer. The hotel’s breakfast buffet, and fax and copy services were complimentary. Growing from 34 properties (six managed and 28 franchised) in 1999, 153 operated by 2006. The 300th opened in 2013.
