New Marriott-brand hotel will push Terre Haute past 2,000 rooms

Those behind the upcoming TownePlace Suites by Marriott at Interstate 70 and U.S. 41 were honored by the Terre Haute Chamber of Commerce Thursday afternoon as part of what the chamber called a “Community Investment Celebration.”

The event took place at the Terre Haute Convention and Visitors Bureau; it was relocated there because construction has already begun at the hotel site. The four-story, extended-stay hotel of 96 rooms and about 59,000 square feet means Terre Haute’s hotel room count will soon surpass 2,000.
