Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. (NYSE:HOT) today announced the opening of a dual-branded Aloft and Element hotel development in the heart of Boston's Seaport District. The 330-room Aloft Boston Seaport and 180-room Element Boston Seaport boast a prime location on D Street, directly across the street from the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center.
"We are proud to debut both our Aloft and Element brands in Boston's dynamic Seaport district, a hub for innovation and a premier convention destination that attracts visitors from across the globe," said Brian McGuinness, Senior Vice President of Specialty Select Brands for Starwood.
