This four-story, 123-room Hilton Garden Inn is located in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on Highland Park Boulevard. Aside from the three outdoor terraces, there are an indoor pool and spa, a fitness center, a convenience store, and a large meeting room that can be divided into two smaller meetings rooms, a business center and a buffet area with dining areas, as well as a Lobby Pavilion, which is separate from the Hotel tower and has a fireplace and clerestory windows. In order to achieve a southern exposure, the hotel is oriented such that natural sunlight is let into the public areas.
Greenfield Architects reconfigured the hotel prototype to better accommodate the site, provide code advantages, and enhance the aesthetics of Hilton's standard details-all while meeting the owner's budget and schedule requirements. The Hotel is oriented for Southern exposure and natural sunlight into the Public Spaces.
