Omni Bedford Springs Resort today announced the completion of a $1.4 million renovation that showcases modern updates to the quintessential Americana property, including a new Lobby Bar, Tally Ho Sports Shop, Evitt House Coffee, refreshed fitness center and more.

The resort, once named the "Summer White House" to the United States' 15th President, James Buchanan, Omni Bedford Springs Resort's new and refreshed spaces provide an elevated guest experience that incorporates modern with traditional and provides the same Bedford hospitality the property is known for. The goal of the renovation was to refresh spaces and create a meeting place and focal point in the lobby. The Lobby Bar, located at the grand staircase, is beautifully designed to reflect the history of the property and features a menu inclusive of single barrel bourbons and uniquely crafted cocktails for guests to enjoy while taking in their comfortable surroundings.

Property renovations include the following:

Lobby Bar:

The newly constructed Lobby Bar at Omni Bedford Springs Resort is the focal point of the hotel. As guests enter the sweeping lobby, they are met with a comfortable and inviting space to meet and gather over crafted prohibition-inspired cocktails in the traditional Americana setting of the property. The bar is tucked under the grand staircase and is a cozy space that is met with cool tones of blues, warm creams and dark wood hues that nod to the historic hotel.

Tally Ho Sports Shop:

Tally Ho, the name for the carriage that originally brought people to Bedford, serves as an updated retail outlet and quintessential outdoor activity shop. From hiking and fishing to yoga, Tally Ho Sports Shop has all that one needs to outfit their next adventure. Additionally, guests of the property can access a daily activity list and the yoga studio from within.

Evitt House Coffee:

The new onsite café, Evitt House Coffee, exudes old Americana from wall-to-wall. The all-new coffee shop has expanded its offerings to hotel guests and locals alike, with grab-and-go options, ice cream, and a coffee and beverage selection including STANCE Coffee. As the brand wide coffee partnership found exclusively at Omni Hotels & Resorts nationwide, each cup of STANCE coffee is ethically sourced and tells a story, while also allowing you to trace that origin back to the farmer who sourced it. The ambiance of Evitt House Coffee pays homage to James Buchanan who frequented Omni Bedford Springs Resort and donned the property the "Summer White House." American flags on the wall and all artwork throughout date back to his era.

Reading Nook:

The former coffee outlet has been transformed to a reading nook that is cozy and inviting, and offers a brightly lit space to sit, relax, and indulge in a good book. The transition space leads guests into the indoor pool and provides a small space of solace. If you didn't bring your own read, visit the onsite Bedford Market for a selection of today's chart toppers.

Fitness Center:

For fitness enthusiasts, Omni Bedford Springs Resort's fitness center has also been welcomed with a revamp. The onsite gym has been moved to a bigger, brighter space and features modern equipment including a Peloton and free weight systems for a full workout.
