Napa Valley, CA's Silverado Resort and Spa Completes Renovation of Conference Center and Guest Rooms
Napa, CA - April 8, 2014- A California landmark for more than 140 years, Silverado Resort and Spa is pleased to announce the completion of its renovations to their 12,000 square-foot conference center, managed by Backen, Gillam & Kroeger Architects, and SWA Group, and its renovations to the 380 guest rooms, by AMB Designs.
Inspired by the 19th century colonial design of Silverado Resort and Spa's historic mansion, the conference center brings out the rustic, agrarian culture of wine country by using rich materials, including custom carpet bordered by white oak hardwood, oil-rubbed bronze, aged brick, and linen. The center now features classic profiles, trim, wainscoting, and bead boards, all freshly painted in aged white. The lower level conference rooms were transformed into a wine cellar experience with exposed and stained concrete, authentic brick work, controlled lighting, and custom wine racks as decor. Not only was every square inch of wall surface redesigned, but each room also received brand new Manhattan task chairs, banquet seating, tables, and improved internet access and bandwidth.
Silverado's conference center has an intrinsic wrap-around porch in the style of the original colonial plantations. The resort authenticated and enhanced the outdoor experience by extending and re-flooring the deck with new hardwood, and adding bead board ceilings, fluted outdoor fans, and beautiful rocking chairs. Shaded by a century old oak tree, the renovated deck offers groups additional break out space with incredible views of the golf course.
Over the past year, Silverado Resort and Spa and AMB Designs began transforming all 380 guest rooms with a fresh, updated feeling of warmth and luxury, including a new open kitchen design, art work, a redesigned fireplace, crisp Spartan white bedding with paisley and plaid accent fabric, new luxurious shower, stone vanity and additional modern fixtures.
The overall property renovations were sparked by Owner Johnny Miller, whose first initiative was to renovate the PGA championship North Course, reintroducing players to the property's world-class golf program. All of the resort renovation efforts combined have made Silverado Resort and Spa the perfect property to host the 2014 Frys.com Open this October. Further details on the 2014 Frys.com Open will be announced later this spring.
