Palm Holdings has reopened the newly renovated Courtyard by Marriott Kitchener, a Marriott Bonvoy hotel.
The hotel features 12 stories and 172 rooms, multiple restaurants, meeting facilities and an extended fitness and pool program. Located at 2960 King St., the Courtyard by Marriott Kitchener is situated close to Highway 8 and 401, as well as minutes from the Waterloo International Airport.
The renovation features an innovative lobby space that serves as an extension of guests’ rooms with space to relax and work by the fireplace. The newly designed Bistro continues the property’s stylish public spaces, with flexible seating for casual dining. The eatery serves classic American cuisine with a contemporary twist all day and serves Starbucks coffee, as well as other specialty beverages.
The Charcoal Steakhouse, Del’s Italian Restaurant and Martini’s Lounge are all connected to the hotel.
Guest rooms feature Courtyard’s latest contemporary room design meant to fully accommodate the needs of today’s travellers. Each room type offers ample space to work, sleep, relax and prepare for the day, designed with sleek finishes in a modern palette. All guest rooms include complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi.
The Fitness Centre is equipped with elliptical machines, treadmills, rowing machines, strength equipment and free weights. Guests can also relax at the indoor heated pool, or step away from their room and take advantage of the 24-hour business centre.
The property is centrally located near the business districts. The Courtyard by Marriott Kitchener offers four meeting rooms to accommodate board meetings of eight up to meetings of 50 guests. The Elmira room is spacious enough to host a variety of events, from wedding brunch and cocktail receptions to sports team meetings and corporate gatherings in a variety of configurations to fit guest needs.
Leisure travellers can enjoy attractions like Bingemans Big Splash, Chicopee Tube Park, THE MUSEUM and Ken Sieling Waterloo Region Museum, as well as retail like the CF Fairview shopping centre, are all conveniently located near the property.
The hotel adds to Palm Holdings’ more than 20 locations under ownership and management in the United Kingdom, United States and several locations across Canada.
“We are excited to open our doors to business as the newest hotel in the Tri-City Region. We felt there was a gap in the market having a premier hotel stay in the Kitchener region and hope to bring a unique higher experience to the area,” says COO Gord Chow. “This is a great property, and we’re honored to add it to the Palm Holdings portfolio.”
