DALLAS MARRIOTT LAS COLINAS COMPLETES PHASE I OF MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR RENOVATION Guest Rooms Now Complete; Public Space, Meeting Rooms, Restaurant, Bar and Lounge Round Out Phase II Notable entertainers such as Chris Isaak and Steely Dan, acclaimed actresses such as Geena Davis and Carrie Fisher, and more than 20 NFL teams have all chosen the Dallas Marriott Las Colinas for its prime location and trusted Marriott hospitality. One of the first hotels built in the master-planned community of Las Colinas in Irving, Texas (within the Dallas Metroplex), the Marriott Las Colinas has completed Phase I of a multi-million dollar renovation that includes all guest rooms. Phase II is underway to include public and meeting spaces, the restaurant, bar/lounge and Marriott signature Greatroom lobby. The renovation style incorporates the rustic Texas heritage of Las Colinas' ranching industry, drawing inspiration from the region's rolling hills. The new Marriott Hotel standards focus on architectural aesthetic, location and fresh design. Marriott Las Colinas' renovation takes its cue from these pillars and will be complete in Fall 2018. P HASE I: GUEST ROOMS With a base of warm, modern textures, the new guest room color palette reflects the Bluebonnets that dapple the prairie landscape and the oranges that paint the skies at sunset. All 364 guest rooms, including three presidential suites, have been renovated to reflect this design philosophy using wood, metal and leather that harkens to the ranching history of Las Colinas, coupled with a modern and upscale twist reflecting Marriott's modern aesthetic. Room rates start at $259.95. Each luxurious guest room is designed for optimal rest and productivity with architectural framing, contrasting finishes and wall cladding, upscale bathroom fixtures, and thoughtful solutions to enhance a guest's stay, such as: Convenient wall outlets, lamp outlets and nightstands outfitted with USB ports for multiple electronic devices Luxurious bedding with cotton-rich linens and fluffy pillows High-speed Wi-Fi and a large desk with comfortable chair and plug-in panels 50-inch flat-panel TVs with premium cable and movie channels to keep guests well-entertained. The Concierge Lounge, located on the 15th floor, offers exclusive access to personalized business and Concierge services, all-day dining options and evening cocktails. It is an exclusive area for Marriott elite guests. Guests staying on the 12th, 14th and 15th, floors are provided with warm and anticipatory customer service meeting the needs of Marriott's frequent travelers.
