Atlanta’s Marriott Marquis Hotel is easily one of my favorite designs in a hotel.

I was there for a conference well over a decade ago and I will never forget that trip. It is stunning beautiful and an HVAC nightmare. :)

There were several decorative pools bottom of the elevators. The atrium is a funnel for moisture and hot air. It got pretty swamp around halfway up. The conference levels at the bottom got pretty cold.

Whoever made that decision should be required to move into a room on the 26th floor for a few years. XD
