It is the companyâ€™s first property to be managed under an agreement with Lamâ€™s Realty Corporation, a local hotel and real estate development and operations firm. The Four Points by Sheraton is Marshallâ€™s second managed hotel in Philadelphia and the seventh in the state. â€œThis is our ninth urban hotel in the Northeast corridor, which provides us with additional economies of scale and operating synergies,â€ said Michael Marshall, president and CEO of Marshall Hotels & Resorts, Inc. â€œWe believe the greater operating and cost efficiencies will benefit all of our managed properties, as well as enhance our marketing efforts.â€

Guests may sample domestic and international beers in the hotel lounge, courtesy of the Four Points by Sheraton Best BrewsÂ® program.

â€œIn addition to on-going operations, our hotel expertise encompasses development, project consulting, pre-opening services and construction management,â€ Marshall noted. â€œThis is the fourth new-build property that we have opened in the past six months, and we are on schedule to open four more within the next six months.â€
