    Atlanta Marriott Marquis recently revealed its extensive transformation, which cost $78 million and saw guestrooms and suites get a complete overhaul, as part of a roll-out across North America.

    The Greatroom features modern enhancements and programs while the hotel’s 160,000 square feet of meeting space is tailored to foster collaboration.

    The latest modernisation to Georgia’s largest hotel comes on the heels of a $138 million upgrade in 2008, bringing the total investment into the hotel to more than $216 million in less than ten years. New, mid-century modern interiors in each of the property’s 1,663 rooms including 94 suites create a consistent aesthetic that now aligns with the Atlanta Marriott Marquis and its iconic architecture while offering contemporary conveniences.
