This past Saturday, the Princeville hotel reopened as the St. Regis Hotel of Princeville. According to senior management, 96% of the previous staff has returned and has been receiving training over the last couple of weeks to understand the St. Regis brand, the top of the food chain for the Starwood Hotel Group. Over 1000 people viewed the hotel over the weekend during this soft opening and Kama Aina rates are in effect for local residents.
The hotel even boasted that they Had their first wedding this weekend. The hotel has been redone replacing the old marble floors with coconut wood floors, Koa, and african woods throughout. The formal grand opening of the hotel is scheduled for October 1st this Thursday. I hope to attend and will report back to you with what I learn.
This photo of the St. Regis lobby shows you the coconut wood floors, and solid Koa columns. What amazing woodwork. The background looks rendered to me, but I'll take some photos when i get up there this week.
