The lobby level now features 720 South Bar & Grill, a 238-seat restaurant and 208-seat lounge, which will showcase a contemporary American style menu. Also on the lobby level is SNAX, a grab and go marketplace featuring a technology -lounge seating area.

Additional meeting space was also created on the lobby level with the opening of the new Buckingham room. 454 guest rooms have undergone a complete renovation.
