GALLOWAY, N.J., Oct. 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Seaview, a
Dolce Hotel - part of the renowned meetings and events brand Dolce
Hotels and Resorts by Wyndham - today announced plans for a
transformational renovation updating its 296 guest rooms, event
spaces and dining outlets with modern design inspired by the
hotel's celebrated Jersey Shore
history.
The renovation comes on the heels of new ownership for the
hotel, which was sold in August 2018
to Dr. Kiran Patel, Florida philanthropist and Wyndham partner on
landmark hotels including the striking Wyndham Grand Clearwater Beach in Florida and prominent Dolce Cheyenne Mountain
Resort in Colorado.
The $17 million renovation will
include updates to all 296 guestrooms and suites; refreshed meeting
spaces, lobby and public areas; renovations to the outdoor pool;
and new dining options including a new original restaurant concept
within the hotel's famed Oval Room. To sustain the massive
renovation, guest rooms and meeting spaces will be closed to
visitors for the winter months, reopening starting in March 2019. The hotel's golf course remains
open.
"Seaview is a beloved icon of the Jersey Shore community with a rich local
history shared by many guests who have spent generations
vacationing here – and even team members who spend their entire
careers, some of them across several generations of families,
working with us at the resort," said General Manager Bob Nelson. "This transformation is the dawn of
a new era for Seaview and will provide our guests a modern east
coast destination resort and, true to the Dolce brand, a harbor for
inspired meetings and events - all while still embracing the past
that shaped our celebrated story."
Founded in 1914, the historic Seaview Hotel has hosted famed
names such as Presidents Warren G.
Harding and Dwight D.
Eisenhower, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and Grace Kelly - who in 1946, celebrated her sweet
16 party in the resort's legendary Oval Room. This history inspires
the hotel's redesign, which includes a hint of art deco nostalgia –
a playful nod to Atlantic City's
heyday – paired with cool, coastal blues and modern, comfortable
furnishings.
The coastal motif carries into the hotel's 27,000 sq. ft. of
event space, which caters to a variety of social events with
customizable menus and packages for weddings with both indoor and
outdoor ceremony venues, bar and bat mitzvahs, family reunions and
fundraisers.
As part of the Dolce brand, Seaview will also offer
state-of-the-art meeting facilities across 21 meeting rooms
designed specifically to stimulate productivity and creative
thinking. The hotel offers Dolce's signature Nourishment Hubs,
rethinking the cliché afternoon coffee break with fresh, energizing
refreshments throughout the day as well as its "Thoughtful Foods
for Thoughtful Minds" program offering menus with wholesome
ingredients and convenient, flexible options.
