Royal Sonesta Hotel Boston Undergoing $6 million
Renovation
with a Nod Toward the Hotel's 1960's Origins
Boston, MA - January 2011 – 200 guest rooms at the Royal Sonesta Hotel Boston will be reinvented during the first quarter as the East Tower half of the building is renovated embracing a metro style. The rooms will be crafted to give a more residential feel, with multifunctional furnishings and a modern palate. The $6 million renovation will include upgrading the building control system to incorporate lighting; recreating the way the bath and room interrelate and will give a nod to the hotel’s 1960’s origins. When a guest arrives at the
front desk, the property management system will set
a “welcome scene” for your guest room. The HVAC system will begin
warming or
cooling the room; and the lighting will be warm and inviting as if the
room is
expecting you. If you leave your guest room, when you return the
lighting will
remember your last setting and turn on as you enter. Located
on the Cambridge side of Boston, the AAA 4-diamond 400-room Royal
Sonesta Hotel
Boston is situated on the banks of the Charles River, overlooking the
spectacular Boston skyline. Guest amenities include 24-hour Health
Club,
atrium-style swimming pool, in-room movies and video games,
complimentary
wireless high-speed Internet access, and complimentary hotel shuttle
service to
shopping and points of interest in Boston and Cambridge. The hotel
recently
introduced ArtBar, a warm, intimate retreat for food and art lovers -
featuring
innovative seasonal American cuisine designed for discovery and for
sharing,
communal tables and seasonal outdoor patio. The hotel is also home to
Restaurant dante – where owner/chef Dante DeMagistris presents fresh
and
creative cuisine with modern Italian influences. The hotel is
conveniently
located across the street from the CambridgeSide Galleria Mall with
over 120
