Today, the Renaissance Vinoy is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been restored to a place of glamour and luxury thanks to an extensive lobby renovation. The lobby's original Mediterranean Revival details have been enhanced with bold bright colors, custom-made artwork from Dale Chihuly and Renee Dinauer and additional seating to create a lounge-like atmosphere that has been popular with guests and locals alike.
