Tacoma, WA – November 24, 2020 – The 304-room Marriott Tacoma Downtown, managed by Aimbridge Hospitality, the leading, global, third-party hotel management company, opened its doors on November 18th in downtown Tacoma, Washington. The 22-story hotel located at 1538 Commerce Street is the latest addition to Marriott Hotels, the signature brand of Marriott International.
Located in the heart of Tacoma’s financial and theater districts directly off of I-705, the Marriott Tacoma Downtown connects to the Greater Tacoma Convention Center on the ballroom level with a grand promenade that features large windows and views of the Tacoma Waterfront and Mt. Rainier. The new property offers guests convenient access to the University of Washington-Tacoma, the Tacoma Art Museum, the Museum of Glass, and the Washington State Historical Society Museum. The hotel is also near the Port of Tacoma, Mt. Rainier National Park, Tacoma Union Station, numerous shopping, dining, and entertainment options, and is 24 miles from Seattle Tacoma International Airport.
The 304 guest rooms offer a spacious and premium feel with tailored solutions that are as inventive as its guests. Based on consumer insights, locally-inspired accents provide a sense of place, and the work surface provides flexibility to move about, using technology wherever the guest desires. Deluxe walk-in showers, spa-like lighting, luxurious bedding with down comforters, and individual climate control offer a relaxed and upgraded experience. The full-service property features six suites, including two high-luxury presidential suites. Each room or suite provides either Mt. Rainier or Tacoma skyline views or a mixture of both.
General Manager Ben Osgood said, “We are thrilled to be joining the Tacoma community, bringing our patrons and guests an inviting, comfortable place to stay, eat, or meet in the heart of downtown.”
“I am so excited to add a new hotel to downtown Tacoma. As we recover from COVID-19, this will allow the Greater Tacoma Convention Center to more readily hold conferences commensurate with the size of the facility while bringing more visitors to local shops and restaurants throughout our region,” said Mayor Victoria Woodards.
With 13 event rooms totaling over 20,000 square feet, plus a 6,500 square foot outdoor event space and 12,411 square foot Event Hub, hosts can create memorable weddings, meetings, or events, utilizing the property’s onsite event professionals.
