Nestled in the crossroads of Texan heritage and cultural innovation, Le Méridien Fort Worth Downtown is positioned to weave its own chapter into the tapestry of the historic city of Fort Worth. In partnership with premier real estate investment and development company, Blueprint Hospitality, and operated by Remington Hospitality, the 14-story boutique hotel is an addition to Marriott Bonvoy, Marriott International's award-winning travel program, and is set to open in spring of 2024 as a nod to the city's storied past and vibrant present.
Experience Southern Hospitality
True to the Le Méridien brand, which champions playful sophistication and timeless design, Le Méridien Fort Worth Downtown will be a destination that tells the tale of two cultures. The hotel will excite guests with a warm, mid-century interior that melds European influences and preserved elements of the renowned former Hotel Texas Annex building. It occupies a prime downtown location neighboring iconic local spots such as Trinity Park, Sundance Square and the Fort Worth Convention Center, and is near the city's outstanding range of art museums: The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Sid Richardson Museum, Kimbell Art Museum and the Amon Carter Museum of American Art.
The hotel's 188 guest rooms and suites will boast complementary mid-century, modernist design, floor-to-ceiling windows and scenic views of historic downtown Fort Worth or the courtyard pool deck. The rooms will also include 55" LG or 65" LG hospitality televisions with access to Netflix, Wi-Fi, ScreenShare and Bluetooth Sound Sync, as well as an in-room coffee bar and additional amenities that create an immersive, personalized experience for guests.
Savor the Extraordinary
At Le Méridien Fort Worth Downtown, guests will embark on a culinary journey. The hotel's full-service restaurant, Bouvier Brasserie, seamlessly intertwines Parisian grandeur and Texas soul. The name 'Bouvier Brasserie' signifies the fusion of two distinct cultures - the elegant and traditional French bistro experience and the rugged, iconic image of the Texas cowboy. Available for all-day dining, the restaurant will offer rich coffee and breakfast options, small plates and seasonal entrees and a curated wine list that complements the diverse flavors of the lunch and dinner menus.
The hotel's rooftop bar, The Annex, will offer an exciting range of cocktails and light bites amidst striking views of downtown Fort Worth. It will serve as a dynamic and engaging social venue, where guests and locals will enjoy weekly live music, events and can even reserve the space for private events like engagement and birthday parties, company gatherings and group outings.
Indulge in Luxury
In addition to the hotel's opulent ambiance and unique outlets, guests will also have access to a plethora of onsite amenities such as valet parking, a fitness center and an outdoor rooftop pool with captivating views from the sixth floor. The rooftop pool, similar to The Annex, will be available to book for private events. Additionally, the first floor is equipped with a marketplace and Le Méridien's Hub; a lobby concept that exudes the comforting aroma of a coffeehouse through social seating and a curated library that also transforms into 'La Vie Rose + Petit Plates', an evening program that will entice guests with delicious cocktails and bites inspired by European classics.
Inspire Connection
The hotel invites guests to create impactful memories and elevate their gatherings with nearly 5,000 square feet of function space. All eight meeting and wedding venues, including a ballroom, breakout rooms and more utilize upscale, contemporary design and state-of-the-art technology to provide a conducive environment for productive discussions and life's meaningful moments. With flexible layouts and customizable setups, the hotel makes event planning accessible and inspiring.
