AUSTIN -- It is pretty noticeable, appearing as a hole on Congress Avenue right now, but it is set to be the newest JW Marriott Austin come 2015, the largest hotel in Austin.
The 1.2 million-square-foot facility will feature 1,012 guest rooms. The Convention and Visitors Bureau said with 35 meeting rooms, it will be a huge selling point for businesses who are unable to book at the Convention Center, but who are still interested in Austin.
