Sleeping Lady Resort Completes Renovations and Upgrades
LEAVENWORTH, WA, November 23, 2009 - Sleeping Lady Mountain Resort, owned by Northwest notable Harriet Bullitt, has announced the completion of several capital improvements - including the renovation of the Kingfisher Dining Lodge, Grotto Bar, and the expansion of their on-site spa. Sleeping Lady's guest rooms are also undergoing upgrades. The improvements will allow Sleeping Lady to expand its service offerings and provide guests with a more engaging and all-inclusive experience. The upgrades coincide with another recent Leavenworth announcement - the addition of daily train service from Amtrak via both Seattle and Spokane.
“We're glad to offer these upgrades just as Amtrak's new service makes Sleeping Lady more accessible,” said Lori Vandenbrink, director of sales and marketing for Sleeping Lady. “The changes allow us to provide a truly comprehensive and relaxing experience for our guests, whether they enjoy refined seasonal dining in Kingfisher or a rejuvenating massage in one of our new treatment rooms.”
Among the larger-scale improvements at Sleeping Lady are the dramatic changes to the Kingfisher Dining Lodge, which include the addition of a demonstration-style kitchen along with a free-standing wine bar. A curving copper countertop now provides an elegant serving space for the chef's featured dishes, which are served buffet-style in Kingfisher's open setting which includes European-style seating. The Grotto Bar also underwent major upgrades, including the addition of an outdoor deck complete with an expansive fire pit and a waterfall that flows down a rocky embankment. Sleeping Lady's guest rooms have been upgraded with new paint, mattresses, linens, lighting and artwork.
