Grand Californian Hotel Revealed After 12 Month Makeover
Sixteen years after its opening, the Grand Californian Hotel has undergone its first comprehensive makeover. In the lobby and public areas new furniture has been brought in, fittings and fixtures have been updated, and even the custom made carpet has been replaced. Guest rooms were taken down to the bare walls to ensure that guests will experience a completely renewed decorating scheme. The Arts and Crafts style has been respected, but the rooms have been updated both in terms of appearance and amenities. The last element that will be completed is the Concierge Lounge on the sixth floor.
