Chocolate king Milton S. Hershey built The Hotel Hershey in 1933, high atop the sweetest town in America, Hershey, Pennsylvania. The Board of Directors for Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company retained C² Limited Design Associates as their resort stylists and exclusive interior design firm for its $67 million building campaign, known as “The Grand Expansion.”

C² Limited Design Associates was tasked with designing and overseeing construction of the following facilities within an 18-month window: Registration Lobby, an 8-shop Retail Corridor, 10 new luxury Guest Cottages (48 Keys), a Meetings Cottage, a 30,000 sf Restaurant with a Tavern, Game Rooms and Meeting Facilities, an Outdoor Pool and Water activity complex with Guest cabanas, a Pool side Restaurant and Bar, a Bike and Skate Rental Building, an Outdoor Sports Complex and Activities Building, a Kids Clubhouse, refreshing the hotel’s iconic Fountain Lobby and Iberian Lounge along with a complete new build of Executive Offices, Conference Services and a Bridal Boutique Sales Center.

Client Testimonial

"When the Board of Directors of Hershey Entertainment & Resorts Company decided to renovate The Hotel Hershey, we knew that this project would require the best design firm in the northeast. We turned to C² LIMITED, specifically to Craig Smith and Christina Romann, for assistance. Their experience, background, and industry knowledge made them the perfect choice for a project of this magnitude.

Since the completion of The Grand Expansion, we have received rave reviews from our guests. The increased functionality of the new front entrance creates a unique sense of arrival; the Woodside Cottages offer exceptional guest accommodations, and the pool complex is a favorite for many families. Our guests appreciate the design features that not only enhance their experiences, but also support the legacy of our founder, Milton S. Hershey."
