The $140+ million investment into The Omni Homestead Resort, which began with façade improvements last fall, has now moved to the interior with the renovations to the historic West Wing. While the exterior work by Complete Property Services continues, HITT Contracting, one of the largest and most respected commercial general contractors in the United States, is the construction firm of record for the far-reaching project.

HITT's dedicated hospitality construction team, led by Senior Vice President Peter Lanfranchi, will restore and revitalize the guest rooms, public spaces, meeting rooms and restaurants throughout the iconic resort.

The Homestead's rich history, which spans more than two and a half centuries, along with the natural beauty of the Virginia mountains, provided the inspiration for the designs. WATG, one, the world's leading multidisciplinary design firms, and their interiors studio, Wimberly Interiors, collaborated with the Omni Hotels and Resorts' design team to honor the resort's legacy and carry it into the future.

Highlights of the interior work include:

Guest Rooms

Tailored comfort designed to be both delightful and restful is the theme for the 483 renovated guest rooms. Each wing will feature a distinct color palette that flows from the corridors into the guest rooms and exquisite floral patterns along with uniquely Homestead touches, accent the décor.

Great Hall

The heart of The Homestead, the Great Hall is timeless and traditional, cozy and charming. The custom-designed carpet, with a nod to the flora and fauna of the Allegheny Mountains, is accented with the trim of classic hardwood floors. Elegant up lighting enhances the welcoming ambiance and whimsical touches in this iconic setting.

Meeting Rooms

Each of the resort's 28 meeting rooms will be refreshed with a focus on architectural details and advanced functionality. Improvements from lighting fixtures and acoustic ceiling tiles to new carpeting and refinished hardwood floors will create a light, sophisticated retreat for meetings and events.

Theater

This 1923 addition to the resort receives a classic, yet modern update with the viewing area converted from theater seats to comfortable sofa settees, lounge chairs and side tables ideal for a variety of events from movie nights to magic shows. New audio-video technology allows for the transformation of the projection booth into an elegant, signature cocktail bar.

Pioneer Picnic

Conveniently located in the Casino building, Pioneer Picnic provides a new, fast-casual, family-friendly dining experience that honors the cuisine of the region. The wrap-around porch and grand lawn invite guests to dine outside, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views.

Martha's Market

Sunny, light and bright describe the new bistro-style look and feel of Martha's Market, the resort's popular, all-day outlet. Signature coffees, grab-and-go snacks and sandwiches, and a delightful ice cream display are highlighted by the improved efficiency and convenience of the design which flows seamlessly into the adjoining Washington Library.

Lobby Bar

Home to a stunning portrait collection of the resort's presidential guests, the Lobby Bar expands into the Georgian Room. The bourbon and brandy color palette creates a distinguished setting for enjoying top tier spirits, fine wines and even a game of pool.
