Marriott Hotels and Resorts' flagship property on Broadway in New York, US, has relaunched after undergoing a major multi-million dollar renovation programme.
Working with owner Host Hotels and Resorts, the New York Marriott Marquis has received around US$39m (£25.2m, EUR29m) worth of improvements throughout the property.
Washington DC-based interior architecture and design group ForrestPerkins worked on the scheme, which included an overhaul of nearly 2,000 guest rooms.
New additions to the property's facilities include a restaurant and lounge called Crossroads - An American Kitchen Bar and the Broadway Lounge.
The Broadway Ballroom is able to cater for 2,400 guests and boasts a "vanishing ceiling", as well as programmable chandeliers offering colour-changing LED technology.
Mike Stengel, vice president, market general manager for Marriott International, said: "Even though we celebrated the New York Marriott Marquis' 25th anniversary last year, it feels like a brand new hotel opening."
The hotel remained open throughout the renovation project, which is due for full completion in spring 2012.
