AC Hotels by Marriott®, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of 30 extraordinary brands, announced today the opening of the AC Hotel Columbus Downtown, located in the vibrant Uptown district of Columbus, Georgia. This six-story property is a design-driven lifestyle hotel featuring 125 guest rooms, engaging communal spaces and an extensive bar featuring custom-curated cocktails.
“The AC Hotel Columbus Downtown is the first of its kind located directly on Broadway in Uptown, providing an elevated destination to Columbus, redefining the guest experience with inspired design and service,” says General Manager, Kane Morris.
AC Hotel Columbus Downtown will include a curated collection of artwork and modern design elements, reminiscent of the historic Columbus Mills, utilizing subtle tones and crisp, clean lines.
The thoughtfully designed property offers an inviting ambiance with contemporary styling to provide an elevated guest experience with anticipatory service and expertly executed amenities with no unwanted extras.
The modern guest rooms cater to savvy leisure and business travelers with sleek furnishings, an open closet system, elegant art and hardwood floors. The AC Café is a true European-inspired coffee experience featuring specialty drinks from espresso, lattes and for a real treat, the Carajillo. The AC Library provides a quiet space for guests, complete with ambient lighting and a collection of inspiring novels selected by guest curators, while the buzzing AC Lounge® will provide a collaborative workspace by day and gathering place by night. Purposefully designed for creativity and connection, the AC Lounge is located in the lobby with access from Broadway.
The bar is open for guests and locals alike and features Spanish-inspired tapas-style small bites, expertly crafted artisanal cocktails, local craft beers and specialty wines. The brand’s signature AC Kitchen invites guests each morning to a European-inspired breakfast selection of signature butter croissants baked fresh daily, savory egg tarts, artisan cured meats, such as thinly sliced La Quercia Prosciutto from AC’s iconic Berkel slicing machine, an international selection of cheeses, as well as yogurts and cereals, seasonal fruits and local specialties.
“The concept behind the AC Hotel Columbus Downtown is simple but refined – remove the unnecessary extras to allow guests to focus on what is most important to them. We are excited to offer this frictionless experience to the Columbus area,” said Mitesh Patel, RAM Hotels Executive Vice President. “I especially look forward to introducing the AC Café. We are the first AC Hotel to offer this experience, from the moment the order is placed, to the moment the coffee is served, everything is visible to the guest. A truly elevated specialty coffee service experience available to guests and locals.”
Intuitive service and signature amenities encourage guests to work, explore and socialize at the AC Hotel Columbus Downtown. Kallpods, the brand’s signature wireless service buttons, will be available throughout the hotel to better engage and meet the needs of guest requests. Additional amenities include a state-of-the-art fitness center and an AC Store featuring locally sourced items for on-the-go. As a brand known for applying a premium level of attention to even the smallest needs, each evening a special DIY lavender turn down service is available in the lobby.
The new AC Hotel Columbus Downtown is conveniently located at 1225 Broadway and within walking distance to all the shopping and dining Uptown has to offer. The hotel is well positioned between major companies including Global Payments, Synovus, CSU, Mercer University and nearby Aflac.
