January Week Four Update

Steady progress is being made on the first block of rooms being refurbished. In phase two of the restoration, the lobby and bar will be completely redesigned. We have learned that the hotel’s lobby will focus on a centered bar featuring a 15-foot, backlit backbar set beneath two oversized beaded pendant lights and an Erte-inspired mural on a silver-leaf canvas by Evans & Brown of San Francisco.

When the renovations' complete will the hotel have any job openings? Will you post them online or in the newspaper?

Kara - teh first rooms will not be ready until April and the lobby renovation will be done in Phase II starting in December. So, while the hotel will not be brand new in March it will still look nice and be enjoyable.
