Atlanta, GA., July, 2006 – Atlanta’s largest, premier convention hotel, the Atlanta Marriott Marquis recently unveiled a cutting-edge, $38 million renovation to all 1,675-hotel rooms and suites.

“With the integration of these state-of-the-art enhancements to our hotel rooms, we have created a setting that is ideal for work and relaxation, solidifying our position as a leader in downtown Atlanta for years to come,” says Gary Gentile, General Manager of the Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel.
