CITY, Mich., June 10, 2013 –
The West Bay Beach, a Holiday Inn Resort, the only full service hotel
located on Grand Traverse Bay in Traverse City, Mich., is proud to
announce the completion of its extensive multi-million dollar
hotel renovation. The hotel’s total hotel refresh includes the renovation
of its 179 guestrooms, public corridors, lobby, meeting and event space,
outdoor pool area, exterior facade, and business and fitness centers.
“We are
doubly thrilled about presenting a beautifully renovated product to
our guests as well as becoming a part of the Holiday Inn Resort family,”
says Deborah Brown, hotel general manager. “We are looking forward to
being a premier vacation destination as well as a unique venue for
corporate retreats and destination weddings in the Grand Traverse Bay
area.”
The first
Holiday Inn Resort to open in the Midwest, the hotel creates a gracious sense
of arrival for its guests with a fully renovated lobby featuring
check-in pods, contemporary new seating areas, and a concierge desk
to assist with activity planning in the Traverse City area. Throughout the
property, the hotel presents a new urban design featuring contemporary
seating, wall art, and a design palette of bright teals,
sophisticated oranges, and deep brown hues.
Each of
its fully renovated guestrooms has been refreshed with all new
wall treatments, carpeting, and furniture. Each guestroom also features
updated bathrooms, 42-inch flat screen hi-definition televisions, safes,
and refrigerators. The hotel also added two family suites for traveling
families looking to stay together, which includes bunk beds, beanbags, and
a separate playroom.
West Bay
Beach has also upgraded its dining establishments premiering Shimmers on
the Bay, a new upscale restaurant lead by Executive Chef Deric Ham
formerly of Crystal Mountain Resort & Spa. Opened for both lunch
and dinner, the restaurant features two beautiful walnut communal tables,
a grand outdoor patio outfitted with cozy fire pits, and a newly
redesigned bar. Guests can enjoy a carefully crafted menu that
showcases classic American cuisines and fresh seafood including a
shrimp martini served with sweet chili glace, steamed mussels prepared in
a garlicky pesto broth, a smoked whitefish pate served with flatbreads,
and a variety of local salads and pasta dishes. The restaurant hosts
DJs and live music as well as drink specials on Friday and Saturday
evenings starting at 9PM. For breakfast, hotel guests and locals alike
will also enjoy the hotel’s fully renovated breakfast café, The
Bistro, which features a two-way fireplace that faces the outdoor pool and
will serve Starbucks® coffee.
Coupled with
its premier waterside location on Grand Traverse Bay, West Bay
Beach’s fully renovated meeting space provides the ideal destination for
corporate events and weddings. The hotel increased its event space to
7,000 square feet with the addition of two meeting rooms that offer
stunning waterfront views.

and all new contemporary outdoor furniture including cabanas, a
refreshed indoor pool now featuring a hot tub and sauna, a brand new
