History Lesson El Paso’s historic property Hotel Paso del Norte (Marriott Autograph Collection) has been undergoing a multimillion-dollar, multi-year renovation to bring it to the grandeur of yesteryear with a wide array of modern amenities. The hotel will be among the world’s first Marriott Autograph Collection Hotels to install a state-of-the-art air filtration system throughout the hotel’s entire HVAC system. The Plasma Air system has been shown to kill 99 percent of bacteriophage in the air after 10 minutes of use. Common areas, bars, restaurants, hallways, ballrooms, meeting rooms, spa and fitness rooms, and all guest rooms will utilize the filtration system. Nestled aside the Franklin mountains of El Paso, Hotel Paso del Norte was originally built in 1912 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. The property has 351 guest rooms, three restaurants and 33,000 square feet of meeting and event space. The hotel showcases more than a century of architectural treasures, including the restored bronze statue of Mexican General Pancho Villa, a 25-foot Tiffany-style glass dome ceiling, and the 10th floor overlook where people would gather to safely watch the escapades of Pancho Villa during the Mexican Revolution. hotelpdn.com
