"We have worked with Kieffer Design Group on various projects for the past twelve years.  Most notable, being our custom Hilton Garden Inn located in Eagle, ID.  Judi and her firm were responsible for the selection, procurement, and presentation/acceptance of our custom design to Hilton.  KDG worked closely with Hilton representatives on ensuring that our hotel complied with both Hilton standards as well as the strict design requirements set forth by the the city of Eagle, Idaho.  They did this while at the same time satisfying the needs of us, her client.  Most recently, Kieffer Design Group has assisted us in renovations, and procurement for our Hilton Garden Inn.  KDG has also helped us with interior design and renovations for our other branded hotels.  Additionally, they have assisted us in working on a design for a Hilton branded hotel that we have planned for developing in Fall of 2010.  We have been very satisfied with the service and outcome of all of our projects with Kieffer Design Group.  We will continue to work with them in the future and would be happy to recommend their services to others."

"We have worked with KDG locally over the last several years on various projects including our meeting room renovation and a proposed corridor and guest bathroom renovation.  We have found the staff of KDG to be easy to work with and have enjoyed our relationship. I believe they would be an asset to any Hotel owner."

"I have the great pleasure of working with Judi Kieffer and her team at KDG as a subcontractor. I am a decorative walls artist. Judi and her team are so kind and easy to work with. She has high standards and an excellent eye for color and design. She respects my work while it is in process and guides me if there needs to be color adjusted or something changed. What I like about Judi is that she listens to her clients. Just recently I worked on a cabin and it is 'elegant' 'playful' and 'rustic' all at the same time. I am excited to be a 'part' of her crew."
