Marriott’s Top Convention Hotel Revamped

MERRILLVILLE, Ind.

The Louisville Marriott Downtown in Kentucky has completed a full renovation to the hotel's 616 guestrooms, suites, concierge lounge, pool, spa and fitness center.

The new interior was designed by Chicago-based Zimmerman Weintraub Associates, introducing elements to help the modern traveler, but rooted in the culture of Louisville. The rooms and 25 suites were completely redesigned and refurnished with new bathroom lighting, millwork and valances, 42-inch HD TVs installed in each room. The rooms also received new ergonomic desk chairs, leather ottomans and closets with built-in refrigerators. The entire hotel received new art, including pictures, photos, murals and wall hangings, much of it Louisville-themed.

A complete renovation of the concierge lounge provides additional seating areas and a communal table for informal meetings and networking. The fitness center now includes all new cardio equipment with individual television screens as well as bamboo floors, complimentary chilled bottled water, chilled towels and stereo earphones to further enhance the workout experience for guests.

Located in the center of the city, the Louisville Marriott Downtown offers convenient access to the Kentucky International Convention Center as well as the 4th Street Live entertainment and dining district through a climate controlled skywalk.

Last year the Louisville Marriott Downtown was ranked by meeting planner guests as the number one Marriott convention hotel in North America.

The Louisville Marriott Downtown's 616 rooms are spread throughout the 17-story building. The hotel offers 30 meeting rooms with 50,000 square feet of meeting space, which can hold 3,500 people. The hotel also features an indoor pool, a Starbucks, Blu Italian Grille and Champions, a sports bar.
