DDB Contracting has completed a comprehensive interior renovation of the Courtyard Marriott Philadelphia. The project delivered 50,000 square feet of refreshed hospitality spaces for client Remington Hospitality.

The team transformed the property’s lobby, ballrooms, meeting rooms, pre-function areas, restrooms, and common spaces. Projects like this occupied historic hotel renovation demand precision that goes beyond standard construction scheduling. The hotel remained fully operational throughout. DDB coordinated every phase of work to minimize disruption to guests while maintaining an aggressive timeline.

Remington Hospitality is a leading hotel management company known for driving performance and guest experience across a diverse portfolio. The Courtyard Marriott Philadelphia is one of the city’s storied hospitality landmarks. This renovation reflects Remington’s commitment to delivering elevated accommodations in premier markets.

“You open up walls in a building like this and it tells you things. That’s just the reality of historic work. The key is having a client who trusts you to handle what you find,” said Ed Albanese, Owner of DDB Contracting.

The Courtyard Marriott Philadelphia now stands ready to deliver an elevated experience for guests and event attendees for years to come.
