Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Contemporary hotel in Downtown Atlanta, United States
The Atlanta Marriott Marquis is a contemporary high-rise in Downtown Atlanta with 52 floors. The building is defined by a striking glass-enclosed atrium that rises through its entire height.
Architect John C. Portman Jr. designed the hotel in 1985 and revolutionized hotel design. His innovation was the open glass atrium that redefined vertical interior space.
The hotel serves as a central gathering point for conferences and events, providing more than 100,000 square feet of meeting space for diverse gatherings.
The hotel has 34 elevators that move guests efficiently between floors. The location puts major nearby attractions like the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola within easy reach.
The building's curved base and side profile create a recognizable silhouette that many notice resembles a Coca-Cola bottle. This design detail reflects how the architect deliberately incorporated Atlanta's industrial heritage.
