With construction continuing to run ahead of schedule, downtown Austin’s new 1,000-room JW Marriott hotel has again pushed forward its opening date.
The 34-story, 1,012-room convention hotel, at East Second Street and Congress Avenue, is now set to welcome its first guests Feb. 13, Indiana-based developer White Lodging said Wednesday. When completed, the facility will be the city’s largest hotel.
