New Hotel Lobby Welcomes Guests With Bright, Contemporary Atmosphere
STOCKTON, CA–(Marketwire – October 5, 2010) – A bright and contemporary new lobby will welcome guests at the Courtyard hotel near downtown Stockton, CA, featuring the Courtyard by Marriott’s new Refreshing Business lobby concept, designed to give travelers the flexibility to work and socialize however they choose while on the road.
“From day one, Courtyard has prided itself as a brand that listens to what travelers want from a hotel,” said Janis Milham, vice president, Global Brand Manager, Courtyard by Marriott. “Guests want more control and choice with services and amenities that create a healthy balance between working and relaxing. We redefined the Courtyard lobby so it invites guests to get out of their rooms to work, socialize, or for entertainment, whether traveling alone or with colleagues.”

The enlarged business library features several complimentary computer terminals along with a free printer and separate computer stations dedicated to printing airline boarding passes and checking flight status.
