Korn Design, HBA partner for top-to-bottom renovation of Kimpton Nine Zero

Kimpton Nine Zero, a property located at the crossroads of Boston’s Beacon Hill, Downtown Crossing and the Financial District, is undergoing a top-to-bottom transformation. Included in the hotel's renovation project are 190 guestrooms and suites, living room lobby, and 2,400 square feet of event and workspace.

The renovation project is slated for completion in late winter 2018.

For the renovation, Kimpton and the hotel’s owner Brookfield Properties are working with Boston’s Korn Design and California’s Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA).

Upon completion of Kimpton Nine Zero, the lobby will have new velvet, stone and metallic finishes, and old-fashioned accents like leather-bound books and typewriters. The rooms will have leather-laden bed frames and Eames chairs, and will be accessorized with books and artwork. Meanwhile, the hotel’s event and workspace will also be transformed.

The property—which was acquired by Kimpton in 2006—has 2,400 square feet of private event and workspace.

Michal Penek is the GM of Kimpton Nine Zero.
