Thanks to the KY host committee for preparing this informative hotel
overview.
>  HOTEL OVERVIEW
>  The following information is not intended to be a comprehensive
> guide to the hotel public meeting spaces.  It gives brief
> directions to meeting rooms and restaurants, and uses the
> elevators as reference points.  Escalators and steps also give
> quick access to many areas.
>  SUITE TOWER
>  First floor: There are three entrances to the East Tower, with
> the center one being a revolving door.  A large rug is located in
> front of each entrance.  Tour buses will load from this area.
>  With your back to the outside doors, beginning on your left and
> moving around the lobby, you first find escalators to the second
> and third floors.  Then comes the Concierge Desk, and then a
> short hall to the left leading to the elevator bay (4 elevators
> on left).
>  Across the back of the lobby is the transportation desk and the
> front desk.  The front desk is almost directly across from the
> outside doors, but a carpeted area and a glass table are in the
> center of the floor that you will need to go around.  A few feet
> to the right of the front desk are stairs up to the second floor
> meeting rooms.  Ascending these steps, you will be near the
> CarrollstFord room.
>  To the right of the stairs is a small hall with one elevator on
> the right and a door to steps on the left; these give access to
> the parking garage.
>  Back at the outside doors, turn right to find carpet.  Stayin
> on the tile floor with the carpet on your right.  There is a
> large glass bird cage on your left and seating on the right.
> Next on the left is an open area with business offices and
> restrooms, and a large seating area.  On the right is more
> seating.  Continue into the hallway to the Wilkinson, Sampson and
> Laffoon rooms on the left, stairs up to the second and third
> floor meeting rooms on the right, and a door to the parking
> garage at the end of the hall.
>  Second floor: From the main elevators, turn right.  Meeting
> rooms are only on the left.  A railing overlooking the lobby is
> on the right.  Escalators are directly behind the elevators.
>  On the left, in this order, are: Collins, Brown, and
> CarrollstFord rooms; the steps from the lobby near the hotel
> front desk; the women's restroom and a hall to the left with the
> men's room and another entrance to the CarrollstFord room at the
> end on the left; Nunn, Breathitt and CombsstChandler rooms; and a
> long counter with the ACB Caf`every.  Across from the Caf`e are
> the steps down to Wilkinson, Sampson and Laffoon and up to the
> office tower.  The Volunteer and Information Desks are located
> near the ACB Caf`every.
>  Pass the Caf`e and make a left into a long hall.  On the left
> is the ACB Marketplace, the second entrance to CombsstChandler,
> and several entrances to the Grand Ballroom.  On the right is a
> narrow hallway leading to the office tower, the exhibit hall, and
> restrooms at the end.
>  Turning right into the office tower hall, a UPS store is on the
> right and Jeff Ruby's Steakhouse is at the end of the hall.
> Because of the slope of the ground, you are now on the first
> floor of the office tower.  Turning left and walking down the
> hall you pass the first set of elevators (4 on right, 2 on left),
> Coffee on the Run and a small convenient store and a security
> desk on the left, an exit to Main Street and stairs leading up on
> the right, a second bank of four elevators on the right,
> restrooms and a third bank of six elevators.
>  To cross to the Rivue Tower or use the pedway to the office
> tower: Back at the main East Tower elevators, exit onto the tile
> on the third floor.  The escalators are once again immediately
> behind the elevators.  Turn right or left to go around the
> elevators.  Pass the escalator and continue straight to the
> entrance to the Conservatory (for the Rivue Tower), or turn left
> into the pedway to the office tower.
>  The Conservatory connects the Rivue and Suite Towers.  The
> acoustics change dramatically, and there is an unusual amount of
> echo in the Conservatory.  Seating is throughout the entire area.
> Also J's Bar is along the right side, and Thelma's Deli is at the
> far end.  A large bird cage is in the center.  The Conservatory
> is carpeted, except for the tile in front of Thelma's.  There are
> two sets of double doors to the left of Thelmas into the Rivue
> Tower.
