Kingston Marriott Brand Transformation

Redesign of the hotel's main guest-facing spaces to Marriott brand standards while the hotel stayed open.

A comprehensive renovation of the property's most prominent spaces: the main lobby, Great Room, M Club Lounge, Academy Bar, common corridors, public washrooms, elevator lobbies and circulation areas.

The hotel remained fully operational. Guest access to rooms, elevators, reception and amenities was maintained throughout, with work phased around occupancy levels, events and peak periods.

Scope of work

  • Main lobby and arrival experience
  • Great Room, M Club Lounge and Academy Bar
  • Elevator lobbies, public washrooms and common corridors
  • Architectural finishes, custom millwork and feature lighting

Key challenges

  • Uninterrupted guest access to guestrooms, elevators, reception and amenities
  • Noise, dust and vibration control around guests and staff
  • Strict safety and security protocols in active public areas
  • Deliveries, staging and trade access in a constrained urban site
