Starwood's attempt at world domination continues next Friday, August 8th, with the opening party for Aloft Philadelphia Airport. Just to make sure this debut gets all the attention it can, Starwood has brought out the big guns: an appearance by Philadelphia's own DJ Jazzy Jeff.

Really, how can you miss that? (Well, you will, if you haven't been invited.) Pennsylvania-born model Beth Ostrosky, P.A. Governor Edward Rendell and Philly Mayor Michael Nutter also are expected to attend.

The festivities also will include a fashion show featuring designs from Philadelphia boutiques, a celebrity-signed pillowcase auction to benefit the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program and a preview of the art set to be featured in the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program's 25th anniversary exhibit.

By now you know how Aloft operates, so we'll just give you the rundown of the Philadelphia property. It's about a half-mile from the airport and about five miles from Center City. If you happen to be driving in, you can clear all the dead bugs from your windshield at the hotel's self-service car wash.

Its 136 rooms are pet-friendly and though the opening bash is August 8, you can't check in until August 9. As the say in Aloftland, Aloha Aloft Philadelphia Airport!
