Beverly Hills, Calif. - Avalon Hotel, the mid-century modern escape in the heart of Beverly Hills, recently updated the menus at its restaurant, blue on blue, to reflect the season's freshest tastes. The hotel also recently completed renovations to its common areas and welcomed a new general manager.

"We are very excited about the seasonal changes at Avalon, particularly to blue on blue's menus, as there have not been any major additions or updates since the restaurant opened in 2000," said new Avalon Hotel General Manager Janne Clare. "We are now offering guests our time-honored classics while showcasing new creations that feature the season's finest produce, meats and spices of California."

To ensure comfort and convenience, Avalon Hotel constantly refurbishes its public areas, most recently expanding its restrooms. Spearheading updates to the property since she joined the Avalon Hotel in July 2003, Clare brings more than 15 years of experience at Starwood Hotels and Resorts throughout Kauai, Hawaii, Costa Mesa, Calif., and Boston to the Kor Hotel Group.
