SYRACUSE, N.Y.
Officials of New Castle Hotels and Resorts and RHS Holdings, LLC, a Syracuse-based real estate development firm, have unveiled the first new-build hotels in downtown Syracuse in more than five decades with the launch of the Marriott/Residence Inn Syracuse Downtown at Armory Square.
The combination hotel, a 78-room Residence Inn and 102-room Courtyard by Marriott constructed under one roof, is located in the heart of the city's historic Armory Square district and anchors the Connective Corridor that links downtown with Syracuse University.
The hotels also mark the return of Marriott brands to downtown Syracuse. The $30 million project is the largest, non-office building, new construction project in downtown Syracuse in more than 25 years.
Armory Square is a six- block planned city center boasting office and residential buildings and a commercial/entertainment scene with more than two dozen bars and restaurants, the Museum of Science and Technology, the historic Landmark Theater and 20-plus stores, salons and boutiques.
Courtyard by Marriott/Residence Inn Syracuse Downtown at Armory Square offers valet parking, complimentary WiFi throughout the hotel and features a shared lobby, pool and 1,400 square feet of meeting space. The Bistro, a casual dining concept featuring flexible seating, is a signature feature of the Courtyard by Marriott brand, along with the Go Board, a 55-inch touch screen offering local news, weather, flight information and more.
