WASHINGTON, DC, November 28, 2005. Marriott International, Inc. (NYSE: MAR) announced today that the Wyndham Pittsburgh Airport hotel in Coraopolis, Pa., has been re-flagged as the Pittsburgh Airport Marriott. Located at 777 Aten Road, the 316-room hotel will undergo a comprehensive $10 million renovation early next year. The property is owned by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and is operated by Interstate Hotels & Resorts.
"We're very excited to be part of the Marriott family of hotels, and we look forward to welcoming our past guests and introducing new visitors to this wonderful hotel," said Tom Hardy, general manager, Pittsburgh Airport Marriott. "Upon completion of the renovation, our customers can expect Marriott's new luxurious bedding and fresh design, and we will continue to provide an outstanding level of service that our guests have come to trust and rely on."
Beginning in February 2006, the Pittsburgh Airport Marriott will undergo a comprehensive renovation to its exterior, public space, fitness center and signature restaurant, Meritage Grill. Guest rooms will be completely refurbished and will feature Marriott's new, luxurious bedding with plush mattresses, soft sheets and multiple pillows. Replacing the traditional hotel bedspread is a down comforter nestled inside sheeted duvets, which will be freshly laundered for each new guest.
The bedding features 300-thread-count, cotton-rich, white top and fitted bottom sheets, which are among the finest and softest sheets of any global hotel chain. The stylized bedding is accented with euro shams, a decorative bed scarf and a bolster.
