SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has completed a $22.25 million renovation of the iconic, Morris Lapidus-designed InterContinental San Juan. IHG is one of Puerto Rico's pioneering international hotel companies and first had a presence on the island in 1960.
The hotel's improvements aim to provide an outstanding experience for business and leisure travelers. While guest rooms reflect a harmonious combination of different tones of beige and blue symbolizing sand and sea, the decorative accents and wood details evoke the emblematic colors and architectural characteristics of Old San Juan.
The public space areas provide a warm and modern ambiance for business meetings and leisure, and all meeting rooms were refreshed with a look and feel consistent with the rest of the resort featuring the newest digital signage with sleek design and sophistication.
"Few properties in the region offer the combination of an oceanfront location coupled with the business amenities featured at the InterContinental San Juan," said Alvaro Diago, COO, Latin America and Caribbean, IHG. "There is no doubt that this one-of-a-kind property will continue to define hospitality on the island of Puerto Rico and remain a key asset in the InterContinental® Hotels & Resorts portfolio."
The AAA Four-Diamond InterContinental San Juan renovation included upgrades to its elegantly-appointed guest rooms and suites, lobby, meeting rooms and the property's common areas, bringing a fresh, new look to the globally-renowned hotel. The property is located on two miles of pristine white sand beach on Puerto Rico's northern coast of Isla Verde, just minutes from Luis Muñoz Mar'n International Airport.
