On the hotel's main floor, the new MClub lounge offers an exclusive space with premiere services that invite guests to work, enjoy a bite, recharge and connect. Meanwhile, the expansive Greatroom restaurant invites guests to enjoy traditional American dishes for breakfast and lunch and sophisticated cuisine flavored with southern flair for dinner. Nearby, mixologists at the property's chic new Bourbon Bar serve up craft spirits and signature cocktails.
