Overview

Scheduled to open in late Spring of 2008 Element Lexington, Massachusetts will be a wholly-owned development of Starwood Hotels. The hotel is part of two hotels being developed in Lexington by Starwood, the other one being the aloft Lexington.

Just twelve miles outside of Boston, Lexington offers a charming combination of historical sites, farm stands and greenhouses, as well as convenient access to Boston's thriving business community and leisure attractions. Sharing the same parcel of land, the two hotels will be located at 727 Marrett Road at Route 2A.

Inspired by Westin Hotels & Resorts, ELEMENT Lexington will offer a new extended stay experience that combines smart design, nature-inspired, and eco-friendly touches. Modern amenities range from WiFi to an international pantry stocked with everything from Korean kimchi soup to dolmades, a Greek favorite.

The ELEMENT brand's unique smart design philosophy is evident from the moment guests arrive. After passing through a signature portal that provides a literal bridge to the ELEMENT interior haven, guests will be greeted with streams of natural light from a multi-storied window wall. The vitality of the lobby will be matched by the energy of the hotel's outdoor fire pit and barbecue, where a regular nightly gathering will give guests an opportunity to interact, while sipping a glass of wine or draft microbrew beer.

ELEMENT Lexington will offer 123 guestrooms. The smart design and clever use of space in the hotel's guest rooms will be aimed at encouraging guest productivity while facilitating relaxation. ELEMENT Lexington's open, modular flow will blend together each part of the guestroom to create a residential feel.

In addition, each room offers a complete kitchen that features modern, energy-star rated appliances and all the tools and utensils to prepare a gourmet meal.
