Welcome to Artelo:
A Vision by Square Roots Collective

At Artelo, we invite you into a space where creativity and community converge. As part of Square Roots Collective, our mission extends beyond offering a place to stay. We aim to cultivate connections, inspire imagination, and celebrate the rich cultural fabric that makes Kennett Square unique. Artelo is not just a hotel—it's a canvas for expression, a gathering place for thought, and a beacon of our collective commitment to the arts, sustainability, and meaningful experiences. 100% of Artelo’s profits benefit the local community. So, for example, when you book a room, you are helping to house a family through Family Promise of Southern Chester County or help make nature accessible through Kennett Trails Alliance.

Art at Artelo:
A Tapestry of Creativity

At Artelo, we believe that art has the power to elevate everyday moments. Artelo is home to a diverse array of artistic expressions, each room offering a unique mural that transforms a simple stay into an immersive experience. It is a testament to the power of art in building community. Artelo was conceived as more than just a hotel—it’s a celebration of our area’s vibrant arts community and an ongoing commitment to the diverse artistic talent that defines our region. The art within our walls is more than decoration; it's a dialogue between you and the artist. 

Kennett Square:
The Heart of Our Story

Nestled in the charming town of Kennett Square, Artelo is situated within its quaint streets, and is close to its local boutiques, warm hospitality, and vibrant nightlife. Known as the Mushroom Capital of the World, Kennett Square is a local cultural hub, with numerous local and regional festivals and restaurants that highlight ingredients from Chester County’s rich agricultural heritage. 

Just a stone's throw away is Longwood Gardens, a world-renowned horticultural treasure that offers breathtaking displays year-round. Whether you're here for a tranquil escape or a lively adventure, Kennett Square has something to offer.


Don't miss a visit to The Creamery, another Square Roots Collective project. This family-friendly beer garden is an iconic Kennett historical treasure that once served as home to the Eastern Condensed Milk Company, and now features an outstanding food and beverage menu. It serves as a unique community gathering space that celebrates local art and music, horticulture, and Kennett’s distinct local culture.


From its historic charm to its world-renowned attractions, Kennett Square is more than just a destination—it's a place where stories are lived and memories are made. We invite you to discover it all from the comfort and creativity of Artelo.
