In the centre of downtown Winnipeg, you will find a 9-story hotel that has roots firmly planted in the city’s history. The Marlborough Hotel popular for business travellers as well as those who are looking for the perfect venue for a wedding reception. The hotel also offers an interesting history for those who want to know more about it.
The hotel has been as this site since 1914, although the name wasn’t always the Marlborough Hotel. When it opened that November, the original name was The Olympia. The original construction of the hotel, which you will still be able to see today, has a Gothic look and feel to it. The original structure was 4-stories high but by 1924, they’d added the remaining 5 floors. After the construction, the hotel received its new name, The Marlborough. The name stems from John Churchill, the first Duke of Marlborough. Today, the property is an important historic building.While the historic aspect of the hotel is extremely important, not to mention interesting, history alone isn’t what makes it one of the best Winnipeg downtown hotels. Certainly, the structure and beauty of the hotel are important, but it really is what’s inside that counts. The Marlborough has plenty to offer guests, and you will find that the facilities are modern and have every amenity that you could want.
You have a variety of rooms from which you can choose, including suites. They have an onsite fitness centre as well as an indoor pool, whirlpool and water slide. Onsite eateries and drinking establishments, Joanna’s Café and the Regal Beagle, are fun, friendly and even elegant. The staff at the hotel is friendly and welcoming as well. From conferences and business meetings to unwinding at the onsite bar, it’s a great place to do business.
Modern travellers will find everything they need at the hotel. Visitors who are looking for a luxurious place to stay in a classic, historic building in the heart of Winnipeg will find what they want too. It’s the perfect place for everyone!
