| J.W. Marriott Debuts Four Redesigned Luxury Suites |
|
|
| FROM WASHINGTON The J.W. Marriott Hotel recently completed the final phase of a $40 million renovation with the debut of two redesigned presidential suites and two additional vice-presidential suites. On the 12th floor, all have access to a 7,000-square-foot terrace overlooking Pennsylvania Avenue, with views of the U.S. Capitol and Washington Monument. |
|
Each of the multiroom suites is more than 1,700 square feet, includes rich gold and platinum decor, and comes equipped with 50-inch flat-screen HD TVs and modern artwork. The presidential suites have white marble and carpeted floors, while the dining rooms are outfitted with conference-sized tables with multimedia capabilities. The largest suite has a custom spa shower and tub with sound and ambient lighting effects.
Owned by Host Hotels & Resorts and managed by Marriott International Inc., the hotel has more than 37,000 square feet of meeting space, including the 14,000-square-foot grand ballroom.
Correction: The original version of this story incorrectly stated that the suites are on the 14th floor.
