Now Open77 RoomsHotel website
Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: CHH), announced the opening of the first new construction hotel to feature the Lobby in a Box package, a MainStay Suites in Chesapeake, Virginia. By using the proprietary and turnkey Lobby in a Box and Kitchen in a Box packages, the hotel leveraged effective designs with lower costs that are intentionally constructed for the extended stay consumer. The Lobby in a Box package seamlessly designed the lobby into a communal space that provides a flexible setup for guests to either lounge, work, dine or watch TV, and the Kitchen in a Box package facilitated the installation of in-room kitchens with ease so that guests can cook their own meals.
Located at 1660 Debaun Ave. in Chesapeake, the three-story, 77-room property was developed by Ray Patel and designed by Parth Hospitality with construction by Thor, Jr. Inc. and architecture by Tymoff + Moff Architects. The new MainStay Suites Chesapeake was created to meet the needs of this vibrant market, which includes a strong military presence, defense contractors, shipyards, and prominent universities, as well as nearby major corporations such as Dollar Tree and Northrop Grumman.
With Lobby in a Box, MainStay Suites Chesapeake introduces a versatile, multi-functional lobby that features a built-in marketplace with on-the-go meal and beverage options, essential travel items, and flexible seating. Complementing the new lobby design, the property also incorporates Choice's Kitchen in a Box package, with in-room kitchens that enhance the guest experience by offering cooking amenities and residential comfort—a hallmark of the MainStay Suites brand. The combined installation of these packages creates a truly "Live Like Home" experience that supports both functionality and profitability for the property.
MainStay Suites Chesapeake also exemplifies a commitment to sustainability with the installation of over 330 solar panels, providing an eco-friendly energy source. The construction, financed in part through a Small Business Administration (SBA) loan for energy-efficient projects, was supported by Hebron Savings Bank.
MainStay Suites' Chesapeake offers 44,353 square feet of guest accommodations and amenities, including fully equipped kitchens, designated work and relaxation areas in each suite, and convenient, flexible lobby spaces.
