    /24-7PressRelease/ - HOLLYWOOD, CA, January 12, 2008 - With all the resources of the showbiz capitol of the world at its disposal, the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel is no ordinary conference facility. Located in the heart of Hollywood and right next door to the Hollywood & Highland Shopping Center, the Renaissance Hollywood luxury hotel can turn any business event into an unforgettable success.

"What is important about our facilities here is the vast amount of resources we have directly at our disposal," says General Manager Bruce Gorelick. "With the Kodak Theater next door where they hold the Academy awards, our beautiful outdoor pool patio, and lots of meeting space available, we can work with anyone to create an event nothing short of extraordinary."

Featuring nearly 65,000 square feet of available Los Angeles meeting space, the hotel speaks to both gala events and intimate gatherings. For thrilling conferences and epic parties, the 25,000 square-foot Grand Ballroom can accommodate nearly 3,000 guests and its modular form allows for reconfiguring into six separate rooms. Inspired by the 1929 Bullock's Wilshire "Perfume Salon," the Grand Ballroom's sweeping outdoor balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooks the famous Hollywood Boulevard and the Walk of Fame. For other large events and conferences, the hotel also has the Hollywood Ballroom, which measures nearly 8,000 square feet, and 15 private breakout rooms.

For more intimate and casual affairs, the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel has a plethora of options. Ideal for a stylish martini reception out in the beautiful Los Angeles weather, the 12,000 square-foot Pool Terrace features gorgeous views of the Hollywood Sign and a classy drink bar operated by Wolfgang Puck Catering. On the top of the hotel, the Panorama Suite is the movie-star's equivalent of a board room, with its baby grand piano, wet bar, and 270-degree view of the city. Other options for smaller events include the Hollywoodland Suite, the Skyline, and the Crestview, all of which work perfectly for the private meeting or reception that needs to impress.

Meetings and conferences at the Renaissance Hollywood can be catered by the world-famous Wolfgang Puck Catering, offering a distinctive menu of the celebrity chef's unique blend of Asian and Mediterranean cuisines. For other meals, the hotel's premier Hollywood restaurant Twist specializes in delightfully eclectic California cuisine, dreamed up by local chef Elie Chow. All dining options are backed up by the professional service and expertise one would expect from one of the world's leading food service organizations.

Even when the workday extends into the evening, travelers will find their room to be quite the hospitable working environment. The work space in each room has all the essentials: high-speed Internet access; a spacious desk and comfortable, ergonomic chair; easily accessed data ports; power outlets at desk level; 2 telephones (1 cordless); and voice mail.
