DETROIT, April 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Detroit Marriot Troy has implemented an innovative new lobby concept called 'The Lobby Reinvented' to help guests transition seamlessly between all parts of their day. The Troy hotel lobby space was designed with extensive input from guests to make the area work better for travelers as they partake in individual work, small group meetings, networking, socializing and after-hours activities.

Services and appointments found in the lobby change throughout the day to reflect the needs of the productivity-focused traveler, from jump-starting the day with coffee and fruit, to getting down to business at mid-day, to recharging with dinner and drinks in the evening. The front desk has been transformed into a streamlined service area complete with individual pods to help guests quickly check in and out or get the amenities they need.

Numerous accommodations found in the space include complete wireless connectivity, public computer terminals, two business cubicles and a media wall with programming feeds. Guests can fuel productivity through a variety of Troy meeting and seating options like small and large work tables, individual box seats, social cubbies and sofas.

The $1.2 million renovated space was decorated with a modern contemporary feel using hues of merlot, chocolate, olive greens and yellows. Guests of the Detroit area hotel can relax in the Party Pit with refaced fireplace and comfortable seating or at the new bar with a 42" flat-screen TV. Decorative pieces include white tiling, hardwood floors and carpet; white stone tabletops; bubble chandelier; stainless steel accents; and new artwork.
