Back in July we blogged about big changes coming to downtown Indianapolis, including the construction of a new JW Marriott hotel that will be the brand's largest property in the world. Set to open in 2011, event planners can now get a first look at the 1,005-room property at the JW Indy website.

At 34 stories, the new Indianapolis hotel will be connected via skybridge to the newly expanded Indiana Convention Center and will be just minutes from the newly constructed $1 billion Indianapolis International Airport. The hotel will also offer 104,000 square feet of its own meeting, banquet and exhibit space, including 23,000 square feet of breakout space and the 40,500-square-foot Grand Ballroom, the largest ballroom in the Midwest.

Expecting to change the face of Indianapolis, the convention hotel will join the four other Marriott hotels of the Marriott Place Indianapolis complex, which will offer a total of 145,000 square feet of meeting space.

Outside of the boardroom, overnight meeting guests will enjoy 37-inch high-definition LG plasma-screen televisions, well-lit, spacious work stations and high-speed Internet access in its amenity-laden rooms. The hotel will also have three different dining options: High Velocity, a high-tech sports bar; Tuscan Bistro, for fine Italian dining; and a gourmet, European-style coffee bar.

Planners interested in booking the JW Marriott Indy can take advantage of its special Indianapolis meeting promotion. Submit and RFP and receive a special pre-opening offer. Or, submit an RFP for 500 or more rooms for 2011 or 2012 and receive a complimentary site visit.
