RALEIGH, N.C. November 2, 2016 - The Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley completed an extensive renovation, adding style and refreshing nearly every area of the property including new, experience-enhancing amenities such as fully-renovated and modernized guest rooms, enticing public spaces, a redesigned, modern lobby, new outdoor pool and a well-equipped fitness center. Additionally, a new ballroom was added, doubling meeting space to over 21,000 square feet.

The renovation and development was led by owner and leading investment company Rockbridge, and the property will be managed by Concord Hospitality Enterprises. The newly redesigned property will fit the needs of all travelers with thoughtfully-designed casual spaces to connect and a centralized, multi-purpose event space for groups to meet.

"Our extensive renovation touched every aspect of this hotel," noted Jim Merkel, Rockbridge CEO. "The newly, repositioned property will once again be a leader in the Raleigh market.”

“Renovations to the Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley were done with our guests' comfort at the forefront,” said Dan Freeland, general manager of the property. “Our hope is that each guest has an uplifting experience and the opportunity to recharge during their stay with us.”

Lobby renovations are incorporated within the Marriott Greatroom concept, a global brand design and identity program for Marriott hotels worldwide. The Greatroom Lobby offers a stylish, modern, comfortable and welcoming atmosphere with all day menus for light bites, shareables or meals, with full access to technology.

Accessible from the Greatroom Lobby is the newly expanded terrace that overlooks the outdoor heated pool and is equipped with heaters and a stone-finish fireplace. The outdoor pool is surrounded by comfortable lounge seating, umbrellas and a fire pit.

Guest rooms and suites now boast new furnishings and contemporary decor with furniture that is thoughtfully arranged to maximize space and regionally inspired details for a touch of local flavor. Each room features amenities such as keyless entry, 47” smart TVs with access to Netflix and upgradeable Wi-Fi, a walk-in shower, coffee/tea maker and refrigerator.

A complete redesign and expansion of the concierge lounge provides guests with a modern space to enjoy services from Raleigh Marriott's award-winning Concierge Hosts. North Carolina cuisine and specialty cocktails can be enjoyed at the brand new BRAISE Contemporary Southern restaurant and lobby bar.

To better serve business guests and meeting hosts, the property's 21 meeting rooms featuring more than 21,000 square feet of total meeting space showcase new furnishings, carpet, wall coverings and the latest in technology. Built with an astonishing wood designed ceiling and pre-function area leading into an outdoor terrace, the brand new 10,000 square-foot ballroom can be used for large events and conferences. Catering, meeting planners and Marriott-Certified wedding planners are available on-site.

Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley is located directly across from Crabtree Valley Mall, known for its great shopping and dining offerings, and offers a complimentary daily shuttle to the Raleigh-Durham International Airport. PNC Arena, home of the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes is a short drive away, as is downtown Raleigh.
