With the completion of its dramatic renovation, DoubleTree by

Nevada range. All of the hotel’s guest rooms have also been
revamped with contemporary furnishings and remodeled bathrooms.

culture at this property.”
Hotel guests will enjoy a wealth of complimentary amenities,
including newly-renovated pool and hot tub areas, renovated 24-hour
fitness center, 24-hour business center and WiFi throughout the
hotel’s public spaces and guest rooms.
Several dining options are also available, beginning with the
Atrium Lounge, where a striking trellis design and waterfall views
create the perfect setting to enjoy a diverse drink menu. The
International Café offers a diverse menu to suit any palate,
including classic American fare as well as flavors from around the
world. Menu highlights include the chef’s signature Baja Fish Tacos
and Maple Glazed Stuffed Pork Chop. Guests can jumpstart their day
