Unveiling Modern Elegance and Historic Charm in the Heart of Wichita.

The Courtyard Wichita at Old Town, managed by Crescent Hotels & Resorts, —the award-winning operator of over 120 hotels and resorts in the United States and Canada— announced today the completion of its extensive renovation project, marking a new era of elevated hospitality in the heart of historic Old Town.

This milestone greatly enhances the guest experience with a refined ambiance that pays tribute to the rich history of Wichita's railroad and aviation heritage, as well as the Old Town district. In addition to an increased availability of suites, property enhancements include new FF&E in guestrooms and public spaces, refreshed bathrooms in select guestrooms, and upgraded IT through the installation of Marriott's Guestroom Entertainment Platform, providing streaming capabilities in all guestrooms.

In honor of the renovation's completion, a ribbon-cutting event is slated for September 2023 at the Courtyard Wichita at Old Town. This special occasion will serve as the official debut of the freshly renovated establishment, extending an invitation to guests, dignitaries, and the local community to come together and celebrate this significant milestone.

The highlight of the renovation is the unveiling of the Rock Island Suite, a multi-purpose premium guest suite designed for special occasions including weddings. Named in honor of Wichita's railroad history and historic district, the Rock Island Suite features a parlor and exquisite furnishings for unforgettable pre-event gatherings. With a focus on creating top-class event experiences, the renovation extended beyond its 129 redesigned guestrooms and public areas; the property now features 7,000 square feet of versatile meeting and event space, catering to a wide range of gatherings.

Another standout addition to the property is the introduction of Ranney's Boardroom, a new collaboration room that pays homage to the building's original tenant, Joseph Addison (J.A) Ranney Jr. He was one of the notable and successful businessmen of Kansas and the western region, particularly in the wholesale business. The incorporation of a private street-level entrance to a meeting room improves accessibility, allowing for a smooth transition from the city's bustling energy to the hotel's sophisticated ambiance. As part of the commitment to preserving privacy for its guests, the property's newly-added screens grace the lower atrium, offering a picturesque shield to the windows of select suites. These screens serve as a nod to Wichita's pivotal role in the aircraft and railroad industries and the timeless charm of Old Town.

With its prime location, just steps from some of the area's finest restaurants, entertainment, theaters, and museums, upscale amenities, and unwavering commitment to guest satisfaction, Courtyard Wichita at Old Town invites guests to discover the perfect blend of tradition and innovation.
