When your guests plan their trip to the city of Shreveport, they may be excited to find out that the Wyndham Garden Hotel recently underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation.

The massive Wyndham Garden renovation began in January 2015 and includes updates to the hotel's meeting spaces, guest rooms and common areas.

The hotel's new general manager, Victoria Meyers said, "Service and quality are the two biggest contributing factors to a successful hotel, and we have those here at the Wyndham Garden."

While in Shreveport, guests with a penchant for flowers may enjoy a visit to the American Rose Center, where they can walk around the nation's largest rose-dedicated park. Group travelers can delight in chocolate and wine during a unique pairing experience at Jimmy's Seafood & Steak at Margaritaville Resort Casino.
