DoubleTree by Hilton today opened DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront, situated directly on the popular Riverwalk, which connects to Friendship Fountain Park. Formerly a Crowne Plaza, DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront opens following a $12-million property-wide renovation that includes a complete redesign of the lobby, meeting spaces, restaurant and guestrooms. The hotel is owned by Sotherly Hotels, Inc. and managed by Chesapeake Hospitality.
“Today marks the second DoubleTree by Hilton hotel opening in Jacksonville this year. We are honored to be a part of this booming economy in such a beautiful city,” said John Greenleaf, global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. “DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront provides travelers with all of the amenities they want and in a location near key business headquarters, nationally-ranked golf courses and entertainment at their fingertips. We are eager for guests to experience our DoubleTree by Hilton culture, starting with our iconic warm chocolate chip cookie welcome and continuing throughout their stays.”
The 10-story, 293-room DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront debuts a fresh makeover that celebrates the hotel’s noteworthy, mid-century modern architecture. Designed by award-winning firm Resort Interiors, the hotel’s fresh, new design aesthetic is marked by a chic, two-story atrium lobby and design touches influenced by the structured bridges and soothing waterways of northeast Florida. Throughout the hotel, guests will enjoy an inviting metropolitan atmosphere enhanced by natural sand, grey and blue hues, as well as driftwood-inspired design touches celebrating the area’s coastal environment. Guest rooms feature contemporary accommodations and balconies where guests can take in the beautiful surroundings.
Throughout their stay, guests will enjoy a range of complimentary amenities, including a large riverfront pool and sundeck with cabanas and loungers, a newly-expanded 24-hour fitness center featuring floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the pool and city skyline, a 24-hour connectivity zone with computers and printers, and free Wi-Fi throughout the property.
With 12,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, including a 4,600 square foot ballroom, DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront is the perfect venue to host weddings, special events and receptions for up to 500 people. Many of the 19 meeting rooms feature sweeping floor-to-ceiling views of the St. John River. For smaller group meetings, the hotel offers the Meetings Simplified by DoubleTree by Hilton package from $35.00 per person, which includes the meeting room, basic meeting Wi-Fi, meeting supplies including a flipchart, markers, extension and power cord, and all day non-alcoholic beverage service. Onsite catering is available to enhance any function.
“Our hotel has been a landmark for the city of Jacksonville and has hosted everyone from presidents and foreign dignitaries to Elvis Presley. We look forward to carrying this tradition into the next generation as we open the doors to DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront,” said Shawn Frisbee, general manager, DoubleTree by Hilton Jacksonville Riverfront. “We can’t wait to welcome guests and deliver the little things that will create a truly rewarding travel experience during their stay with us.”
