This month, the Boston Park Plaza announces the completion of a comprehensive, multi-year, $100 million renovation and restoration project.
The renovation included a complete overhaul of almost all of the Park Plaza’s spaces, including their 1,060 guestrooms and corridors, main entrances and lobby, meeting spaces, mezzanine levels, all furniture and fixtures, and the addition of a brand new library room for working or reading and visiting.
Also added were new high-end amenities, including STRIP by Strega, Boston’s only 5,700 sq. ft. high-energy, uber-modern luxury steakhouse; DavidBartonGym and Cyc Fitness Boston, a 20,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art fitness center (complimentary for hotel guests) with an array of paid fitness classes; and an onsite FedEx Business Center. In late 2016, Starbucks will open a signature 2,500 sq. ft. store and Leica Camera will open a 3,000 sq. ft. Leica Store and Leica Gallery within the hotel lobby.
In terms of meeting space, Boston Park Plaza added 6,000 additional sq. ft. of professional meeting and pre-function space, for a grand total of 50,480 sq. ft. Also, the ballroom space has been fully updated with a new charcoal and ivory color palette.
“This rejuvenation project has completely transformed Boston Park Plaza into a self-contained nucleus that pairs top-notch hospitality, world-class dining, and high-end fitness amenities with the modern comforts and conveniences that today’s travelers have come to expect, all the while offering a unique Boston feel,” said Jon Crellin, Managing Director, Boston Park Plaza, in a media release. “Boston Park Plaza was thoughtfully redesigned with today’s modern travelers and executives in mind, and the hotel now truly reflects the city of Boston’s standing as a world-class destination known for its rich history and modern innovations.”
The iconic, almost 90 year-old hotel’s renovations evoke a youthful, innovative, and international vibe to complement the existing and historical architectural elements. The guestrooms and suites boast all-new lighting and much-improved acoustics; new stone-topped wooden cabinetry, custom upholstered headboards, and warmly-hued carpeting; completely renovated bathrooms; and brand new Smart TVs with steaming capabilities via SoniCast (powered by Chromecast).
Additional, behind-the-scenes renovations included a brand-new roof; repair of the exterior façade; replacement of sidewalk surrounds; replacement of the hotel’s signature two-story decorative windows; modernization of the elevator systems; and the installation of a state-of-the-art HVAC system for individual climate control for every guestroom, meeting space, and common area.
Boston Park Plaza is managed by Highgate, a premier hospitality investment and management company who growing portfolio includes more than 100 properties in gateway cities worldwide.
The hotel is located approximately in the middle of the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center (1.6 miles) and the Hynes Convention Center (1.3 miles). View their fact sheet to learn more about this property.
