ROK Builders, LLC, the hotel construction affiliate of Roedel Companies, LLC, recently completed renovation projects at the Marriott Courtyard in Lebanon and the Harborside Hotel in Portsmouth. The company managed a complete makeover of the Marriott Courtyard's lobby, guest rooms, corridors and public spaces. At the Harborside Hotel, ROK installed a new front desk, remodeled the entire second floor and also remodeled the Prescott meeting room and lower corridor. Owned by Norwich Partners, the Marriott Courtyard was updated to meet new corporate design standards. ROK created a new open concept, multi-purpose lobby area called the Bistro. In addition, ROK modernized 122 guest rooms, bathrooms, corridors and public areas throughout the property. During the six month project, ROK worked closely with Group One Partners, Inc. who provided architectural, interior design and procurement services. ROK was retained by Harborside Associates, LP to remodel the front desk area and complete the final phase of guestroom renovations at the Harborside Hotel. New millwork, countertops and lighting at the front desk were installed. On the second floor of the Hotel, ROK updated 59 rooms and bathrooms with new fixtures, furniture and finishes. Public corridors on the floor were also upgraded to better serve guests.
