Downtown Calgary Hotel Expands, Revamps and Refreshes Meeting Space

CALGARY, AB--(Marketwire - Dec 20, 2011) - The Calgary Marriott Hotel, known as a leading provider of business traveler accommodations in Calgary, is set to launch its revamped meeting space on March 1, 2012.

Located next to the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre, our expanded Calgary meeting rooms will feature an additional 3,000 sq ft, with large windows offering a great view of the Calgary Tower. The debut of our new event space also happens to coincide with our Three's a Charm promotion, offering valuable add-ons to meetings and events booked by March 1 and held by June 30, 2012. Add-on options include 10% off food and beverage rates, three meeting room Internet connections, a complimentary coffee break, a complimentary guestroom for every 35 booked, 25,000 Marriott Rewards® bonus points for the meeting planner, and 3% off the master bill if you sign within 10 days of receiving your contract.

The number of add-ons varies per meeting size, and our downtown Calgary event planners are available to help with all the details. For meetings of 50 room nights or $15,000 spent, pick one add-on; for meetings of 51 to 75 room nights or $20,000 spent, pick two; and for meetings of 76 or more room nights or $25,000 spent, pick three.

While the Three's a Charm promotion is a major draw for those looking to host meetings, our Calgary hotel offers services and amenities for every event, big or small, including exceptional event menus, cutting-edge audiovisual equipment and support, red-coat catering service and our online MeetingMatrix planner.

Our downtown hotel is ideally located for business travel, and offers amenities throughout, including a fitness centre, indoor pool, 24-hour business centre and Traders Grill restaurant. Guestrooms are outfitted with Room That Works® features, plus spa-inspired bathrooms, LCD HDTVs with video game and movie rentals, plush bedding and floor-to-ceiling windows offering city views. Those looking for additional services and amenities should enquire about our three concierge levels, with a bi-level lounge and VIP services.
