Fresh Name For Popular Overland Park Hotel By Marriott Reflects Ideal Kansas City Location

OVERLAND PARK, Kan., Aug. 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- The Marriott hotel in Overland Park has always had the ideal location of being close to Kansas City while also being in Overland Park, KS. To properly reflect its positioning to guests, the hotel has decided to undergo a name change and will now be called Marriott Kansas City Overland Park.

Centrally located just off of I-435, the hotel provides its guests easy access to the exciting sights and sounds of both cities. Shop 'til you drop at popular Oak Park Mall nearby, or enhance your shopping experience with a trip to Prairiefire, home to various stores, stylish restaurants and world-class museums.

Sports fans looking to get in on the action will enjoy easy access to numerous athletic arenas. Head over to Kauffman Stadium, home of the Kansas City Royals, or join the crowds of Kansas City Chiefs fans at Arrowhead Stadium. Kansas Speedway is also nearby, fueling guests' love for fast cars and roaring engines.

While the Overland Park, KS hotel boasts a new name, its superior service and thoughtful amenities will remain the same. Former guests can be rest assured that they'll be greeted by the same friendly faces when checking in, dining at one of the two on-site eateries, or simply grabbing a cup of coffee from one of the well-trained baristas at the fully equipped on-site Starbucks.

When it's time to call it a night, visitors will love making themselves at home in spacious rooms and suites. Stay productive with a flexible work desk, ergonomic chair and high-speed internet access. When travelers are looking to kick back and relax, enjoy HD programming or catch up on Netflix with the hotel's online entertainment platform, displayed on the flat-panel TV.
