Starwood Hotels & Resorts, Europe, Africa and Middle East president Michael Wale said: "We are delighted to partner with Bari Gruppe as we expand the innovative Element brand beyond North America, bringing to Europe a fresh new option for travellers seeking spacious, long-stay environments that are both affordable and sustainable.

"The opening of Element Frankfurt Airport could not have come at a better time, with the rising number of savvy and environmentally conscious travellers and the Element brand’s unprecedented global growth momentum."

The hotel features 133 extended stay studios and one-bedroom suites, all with modular furniture, flat-screen televisions, a 24hr fitness centre, all-day dining restaurant and bar Limónes, and Restore, a 24/7 grab-and-go gourmet food pantry.

The opening is part of the Element brand’s long-term strategy to double its portfolio within two years, from 15 to 30 hotels by the end of 2017.
