 Extended Stay Chains Compared

The chains detailed here all have self-serve laundry facilities and "suites" with kitchens. These hotels also offer discounts for extended stays, beginning at 5 or 7 days.

However, there are also important differences among the chains. They differ with respect to the Types of Rooms & room features, Services & Policies, and Amenities (including complimentary food service).

The lists below are in descending order, approximately, according to typical room rate. There is usually a high correlation between price and quality, but not always. Also, keep in mind that rates vary significantly based on location, room size, and length of stay.
