The 1980’s was a decade filled with massive improvements, including a $40 million renovation to bring The Claremont up to date while maintaining its rich century-old historic charm. During that time, a Mediterranean porch (doubling as an open air Wedding Chapel), a cocktail lounge and a coffee shop were completed. New tennis courts were built and the pool and tennis facilities were completely remodeled adding a snack bar, a lounge and pro shop. In addition, the grounds were re-landscaped with exotic flowers and greenery. All of the guest rooms were refurbished, air-conditioning systems were installed and banquet rooms were renovated. The Claremont also added a $6 million amenity to the Club building: an authentic European-style spa. Professionals were recruited from across the country and abroad.Beginning in 2000, The Claremont Resort & Spa began another extensive renovation, the Millennium Grand Makeover, including upgrades to all 279 guest rooms, improvements to the lobby and meeting space, addition of a new spa and dining venue and expansion of the fitness facilities. As demand grew, a brand new state-of-the-art Claremont Spa debuted in 2001 in the basement of the main building. This 20,000 square-foot facility continues to build momentum as one of the finest spas in the country. In addition to the 32 treatment rooms (double the size of the former spa and salon), The Claremont Spa boasts an inventive menu of treatments designed for both men and women, a “Signature Journey” series, plus elegant lounge areas with dramatic floor-to-ceiling water walls and hydrotherapy baths and spaces that capitalize on the Claremont’s magnificent San Francisco Bay views. The Paragon Bar and Café was completed in September 2001. The lively albeit casual dining spot with skyline views has an eclectic array of hand-shaken cocktails and a café-style menu. There is live jazz four nights a week and outdoor deck seating. Lunch and dinner are served daily. The Claremont’s focus on health and wellness amenities resulted in the expansion of its fitness center in 2002. The 20,000-square-foot facility is part of The Claremont Club. Enhancements including a Pilates room, special cardio and weight rooms, new locker rooms and fitness class rooms were completed in March 2002. A Living Well Center offers private and group instruction on fitness, nutrition and fashion. Through the years, the Claremont has maintained a tradition of gracious hospitality and its staff looks forward to being of service for generations to come. Plans for the next stage of the Millennium Grand Makeover are soon to be announced. |
