"It is something new not only to Northwest Arkansas, but to the whole traveling experience." Conceived by the same team that created W Hotels for Starwood Hotel & Resorts Worldwide, the aloft brand is aimed at raising the bar in the select-service segment. The aloft brand will feature urban-inspired, loft-like guest rooms, enhanced technology services, landscaped outdoor spaces for socializing day and night, and energetic lounge areas designed to serve as attractive venues where guests can socialize. The new aloft hotels also will feature flexible meeting and function space and offer wireless Internet access throughout the properties. |
