Stylish Doubletree Hotel Norwalk, CT reveals fresh new look
Cordova, TN, June 1, 2009 –The Doubletree Hotel Norwalk has a fresh new look thanks to a recently completed $3 million upgrade. Design considerations were made to enhance guest experiences and to grow occupancy. The hotel is owned by CT Hotel Partners, LP. Hospitality Management Advisors, Inc., the management arm of Wright Investment Properties, Inc., manages the property.
As a result of the renovation, the Doubletree Hotel Norwalk impresses guests with a real sense of arrival with its smart new lobby. The lobby area was opened up to create a more spacious feel. The hotel’s design team knocked down walls to achieve a more open flow and clean line of sight between the lobby, restaurant and bar. A permanent buffet and executive private dining room was added to Saffire Restaurant. This allows the hotel the ability to host intimate gatherings that require privacy but not in a typical banquet setting. The bar area has become much more functional with additional seating that can also serve as an area for semi-private functions and has a new design concept. Dark woods mix with rich contemporary colors like cobalt blue, lipstick red and chartreuse green giving guests a chic area to relax and enjoy camaraderie after a busy day.
The 265-room Doubletree Hotel Norwalk has a contemporary décor that features all of the signature Doubletree Hotel amenities including Doubletree’s signature Sweet Dreams ® bedding, 32-inch flat screen TV’s, spacious work desks, ergonomic chairs and two phones with speaker phone capability. Other offerings include complimentary high speed Internet access throughout the hotel, Saffire Bar and Grill, Hilton fitness center by Precor ®, indoor pool, 4,000 square feet of meeting and banquet space including the Silvermine Ballroom, which can accommodate meetings up to 300 people and a business center.
“Being the only true full service hotel in Norwalk we wanted to create a hotel that was more open and functional allowing us to attract additional types of clientele,” said Charles Swan, President of Hospitality Management Advisors. “The Doubletree Hotel Norwalk now truly embodies the Doubletree brand’s contemporary look and feel. We are proud of the recent renovation, which will definitely enhance the guest experience.
