Le Meridien Amman Completes Its Grand Renovation

Online, January 17, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Le Meridien Amman, the largest amongst five star hotels in the capital, has proudly completed the refurbishment project of the façade, as well as several other locations on the property, which comes as a continuation to the hotel's vision of constantly upgrading and improving their product and services.

Recently, the 400 square meter Victorian-style Grand Ballroom which is decorated with mahogany wooden walls, gold-plated wall-mounted lighting, crystal chandeliers, and hand-tufted royal blue carpets has been unveiled. It is also connected to a 40 square meter ash wood VIP lounge, and will offer the optimal opportunity for both guests and visitors to experience a truly chic discovery. It also presents itself as the perfect venue for a perfect wedding.

The facelift of the chain restaurant Benihana, offering the most delectable Japanese cuisine and Sushi, has also been completed in the previous year, adding to this inviting restaurant a refined and sophisticated style.

Furthermore, Le Meridien Amman's new main entrance has added timeless, uncontained space to the lobby, offering guests the perfect balance of public versus private space to enhance their arrival experience. The contemporary design of the entrance, in addition to the entrance of Al Mukhtar Lebanese Restaurant, has also included an artistic revelation to the property's canvas.

The completion of the Abdali bridge has facilitated accessibility to the hotel from different locations, and greatly assisted in eliminating the traffic congestion, which makes reaching the hotel in an easy and quick manner, a simple and effortless process.
