Homewood Suites By Hiltonò Opens Hotel In Chesapeake, Virginia

Represents Brand's 6th hotel in Virginia

CHESAPEAKE, VIRGINIA (Monday, March 06, 2006) - Homewood Suites by HiltonÒ, the national brand of upscale, all-suite, residential-style hotels, has opened the 100-suite Homewood Suites by Hilton hotel Chesapeake/Greenbrier Virginia. The hotel owned by Crossways Properties and managed by ARP Hospitality Corporation, represents another addition to the growing roster of nearly 170 Homewood Suites by Hilton hotels nationwide.

"The new hotel's location, within walking distance of the Greenbrier shopping district and near the Chesapeake Conference Center, makes our city an ideal market for an upscale, extended-stay hotel like Homewood Suites by Hilton," said Gary LeBlanc, general manager.

"Our hotel is designed for guests who stay for five or more nights, but is also perfect for short stays and families who need to feel more at home while they are traveling," LeBlanc said. "We are the ideal place for those travelers who are away from home or the office for several days but still need to have a full kitchen, executive business center and complimentary high-speed Internet access."

The Homewood Suites by Hilton Chesapeake/Greenbrier's address is 1569 Crossways Blvd., Chesapeake, Virginia. The hotel is conveniently located near many local tourist attractions including the Greenbrier Mall and the Chilled Ponds Ice Rink.

The five-story Homewood Suites by Hilton Chesapeake/Greenbrier features residential-style studio, one- bedroom and two-bedroom suites with fully equipped kitchens and spacious sleeping and living areas that are large enough for work, study, entertaining or relaxing. In an effort to help guests be more productive, the Hilton Family of Hotels custom designed its own clock, featuring one of the easiest-to-set alarms.

What's more, the new clocks also feature a connection cable for MP3 players and other portable music devices including ipodsâ, an addition Hilton made after research revealed that consumers prefer to maintain their own music lifestyles while on the road. Complimentary high-speed Internet is also available in each guest suite, as well as in the Lodge and meeting rooms.

Launched in 1989, the Homewood Suites by Hilton brand today has nearly 170 hotels open with another 110 in the pipeline. Beyond its spacious suites and home-like amenities, Homewood Suites guests can find at each hotel an on-site Suite Shopâ convenience store, exercise facility and guest laundry at most locations. Guests can also enjoy a daily complimentary Suite Start® hot breakfast and a Welcome HomeÒ reception featuring a complimentary light meal and beverages Monday-Thursday evenings. † Additional guest services at Homewood Suites by Hilton hotels include a complimentary grocery shopping service* and a complete business center at most locations.
