Throw the ultimate holiday party at the Renaissance Reno Downtown Hotel.
WRITTEN BY CLAIRE MCARTHUR
The Renaissance Reno knows the recipe for a good time.
The hip getaway along the Truckee River in Downtown Reno combines laidback fun with exceptional dining and upscale rooms. It’s a perfect place to celebrate the holidays with friends, family, and colleagues.
The Renaissance’s most distinctive amenity is, without a doubt, Bundox Bocce, its nine-court, indoor/outdoor bocce facility with a full bar and restaurant, Skee-Ball, pool tables, and arcade games. Book a court for your holiday party entertainment, and enjoy the experience while sipping on craft cocktails such as the Bocce Punch, made with vodka, limoncello, and mixed juices.
Bundox offers a holiday menu just for these sorts of festive occasions. Treat your group to slow-roasted marinated tri-tip, New York strip, or roasted turkey alongside classic sides such as roasted-garlic-and-herb mashed potatoes and green bean casserole. Cap the dinner with an assortment of mini desserts from the hotel’s bakery, including profiteroles, assorted French macarons, and apple upside-down cake.
For a higher-end dining experience without leaving the comfort of the hotel, head to The Shore for Mediterranean-inspired fare with river views. If you can’t decide on just one entrée, opt to share a handful of small plates: laffa dipped in hummus, seared diver scallops, and grilled lamb rack lollipops, to name a few. The restaurant’s lounge features live music on the weekends and a unique selection of specialty cocktails.
At the end of the evening, head up to your room and take in the hotel’s eclectic, modern décor, which is inspired by the region’s ranching history and tech future, and the snow-covered views of The Biggest Little City. It will be a night you won’t soon forget.
