Comfort Inn – Chatham to provide free rooms to families visiting hospitalized loved ones over the holidays

The Chatham Comfort Inn, located at 1100 Richmond Street, is pleased to announce that they are offering their “Room at the Inn” program in keeping with the spirit of the holiday season.

“Room at the Inn” provides complimentary accommodations to those from outside of the immediate Municipality of Chatham-Kent who are visiting friends or loved ones at Chatham-Kent Health Alliance over the holidays.

Reservations must be initiated with Admitting Department personnel of CKHA by calling 519-352-6400.

The “Room at the Inn” program is offered from December 24 up to and including December 26.

“Being away from home during the Christmas season may not be a choice,” stated Sheila Bateman, General Manager of the Comfort Inn.

“We offer these accommodations to help bring families together during the holidays. It can be a difficult time when a family member is ill. Getting a good night’s sleep is most helpful for patients’ families. The hotel is only a few minutes drive away.”

Guestrooms feature free in-room coffee service, free wireless Internet service, complimentary hot breakfast, and all rooms have refrigerators and microwaves.

The Comfort Inn, completely renovated in 2016, provides easy access to a variety of restaurants and services in Chatham, as well as an in-house fitness room.
