BURBANK, CA-Holiday Inn Burbank Media Center has finished work on Phase II of a three-phase $15 million renovation project for the 485-room hotel located at 150 E Angeleno Ave. Situated two blocks away from hundreds of shops and restaurants, AMC-16 movie theaters, and Burbank Town Center, the hotel is three miles from the Bob Hope Burbank Airport and minutes away from major studios and post-production houses.

"With Burbank emerging as a first-rate travel destination and with tourism on the upswing, our goal is to have the Downtown Burbank Holiday Inn exceed guest expectations,” said Chris Haven, general manager. "The redesign demonstrates our commitment to offer business and leisure travelers the most modern, welcoming and high-quality accommodations available, along with friendly service and improved amenities.”

The second largest hotel in the San Fernando Valley ranked by the number of suites and guestrooms, the Holiday Inn Burbank Media Center consists of two 19-story towers with 20 meeting rooms representing 16,520 square feet of space. Included with the 485 guestrooms are 102 full suites complete with kitchenettes, king or two queen beds and special executive rooms with added desk areas. Other amenities include a ballroom, the People's Choice restaurant, Crystal View and Casting Call cocktail lounges, Lucy's Gift Shop, the sales office, an arcade, outdoor heated pool, private garden, dry sauna, fitness center, business center, free Wi-Fi, complimentary shuttles to and from Bob Hope Airport, and free parking for registered guests.

Improvements were made to the suites, lobby, sales office, cocktail lounges, ballroom and commercial areas, and included new colors, furnishings, and a contemporary image. With Phase II complete, guests can enjoy the newly designed People's Choice Restaurant with a menu featuring contemporary American cuisine and a focus on fresh, healthy selections. For a New York-style metropolitan experience, patrons can ride up to the 18th floor of the Executive Suites Tower for the sleek new Crystal View Lounge and breathtaking panoramic views of the San Fernando Valley.

Also part of the Phase II renovations are the South Pacific Ballroom with separate bar with a capacity for 250 people, and the outdoor garden park facing 1st Street complete with waterfalls, koi ponds, and a romantic gazebo perfect for weddings.

With more than 1,200 hotels worldwide, the Holiday Inn brand is the most widely recognized lodging brand in the world. In fact, Holiday Inn was one of the first international hotels to establish a presence in China in 1984. The Holiday Inn brand provides the services that business travelers need, while also offering a comfortable atmosphere where all people can relax and enjoy amenities such as restaurants and room service, swimming pools, fitness centers and comfortable lounges.
