The Holiday Inn of Saratoga Springs is
\npreparing for an extensive renovation and
\nexpansion process, spending $2.5 to $3 million
\non remodeling.<\/p>\n

The Holiday Inn, at 232 Broadway, recently
\nreceived an extension on its operating license
\nthrough Intercontinental Hotels Group, owner
\nof the Holiday Inn brand. The license will allow
\nthe Saratoga location to operate until 2024.
\n“With that comes the obligation to renovate”
\nsaid Cindy Hollowood, general manager of the
\nhotel.<\/p>\n

All hotels that qualify for an extended operating
\nlicense are required to renovate their
\nproperty, according to Intercontinental Hotels Group guidelines. Part of the motivation to
\nrenovate is a desire to modernize and keep up
\nwith customer needs, said Hollowood.
\nThe project is expected to be completed by
\nspring 2016. <\/p>\n

Several other hotels are being built in
\nSaratoga Springs or are currently undergoing
\nrenovations. These improvements will help the
\nHoliday Inn stay competitive, Hollowood said.
\nShe said all 168 guest rooms in the hotel will
\nbe refurbished. Fresh wall paper and paint will
\nbe applied. New furniture will be purchased
\nfor the rooms. Fresh bedding and mattresses
\nwill be included.<\/p>\n

Approximately $10,000 will be spent on the remodeling of each room, according to
\nHollowood.
\nRooms will be upgraded during the winter in
\norder to not disturb guests during the popular
\nsummer season. Sixty units will be worked on
\nthis winter, and the remainder the next winter,
\nHollowood said, adding that renovations will
\nnot interfere with guest stays.<\/p>\n

The public areas of the Holiday Inn will also
\nreceive cosmetic improvements. Bookmakers
\nRestaurant and Lounge will receive some
\nupgrades, as well as the hotel ballroom, the
\ngeneral manager said. Renovations include new
\ntables and chairs, and lighting. The front lobby
\nwill be expanded and include a new fireplace.<\/p>\n

Extensive exterior upgrades will include
\nremoval of the canopy and drive-through area.
\nWith that, approximately 1,000 square feet
\nof interior space will be added to the hotel.<\/p>\n

A wrought iron fence will be built to mimic
\nthe entrance to Congress Park. There will be
\na hedge row and a decorative walkway to the
\nbuilding from Broadway. More parking spaces
\nwill be added, Hollowood said.<\/p>\n

R.W. Bell Construction will be providing
\nservices to the exterior of the building.<\/p>\n
