Courtyard by Marriott has opened “Refreshing Business” lobby-experience spaces at three airports across the country. The lobby-like spaces, which offer couches, communal work tables and the Courtyard brand's 55-inch LCD touchscreen “GoBoard” of local news, business and sports headlines, are open in at Los Angeles Terminal 7, Charlotte Concourse E and Philadelphia Concourse E.

The lobby experience, launched last year for a two-month period at airports in Chicago, Atlanta and Denver, is designed to extend Courtyard's hospitality services to travelers as they are on-the-go. “Courtyard has been welcoming business and leisure travelers for more than 20 years and our expertise and knowledge has gone into the innovative elements of our Refreshing Business lobby,” said Janis Milham, vice president and global brand manager, Courtyard by Marriott. “Now frenzied air travelers can experience the lobby and public space Courtyard offers guests at more than 300 hotels across America. We expect to reach 500 by early next year.”
