Be our guest as Embassy Suite twirls in Corpus

CORPUS CHRISTI – Embassy Suites Corpus Christi has unveiled its multimillion-dollar renovation 4337 South Padre Island Dr. In July 2011 an investment company — ZJZ Hospitality — was formed to purchase and revamp the hotel.

Guest suites and meeting rooms have been rebuilt from ceilings to floors, outfitted with new fixtures, bedding, draperies and furniture. The outdated indoor swimming pool was gutted and re-crafted with Mediterranean tile, a new hot tub and poolside furnishings.

The hotel first opened in September 1984 at a cost of $11 million as the Granada Royale Hometel.
