A long-closed, historic hotel in Sioux City is being restored to its previous splendor. Owners and developers Amrit and Amy Gill are investing tens of millions of dollars to renovate the Warrior Hotel and the adjacent Davidson Building into a 148-room Marriot with 22 apartments. The Warrior has been vacant for more than 40 years. Amrit Gill says the building has a lot of potential.

The new Marriott will include a bowling alley, spa and other amenities, while the apartments will be on the top two floors. Amy Gill says they’re planning to keep the hotel’s classic decorations and historic style.

The project is a 73-million-dollar investment and it’s scheduled to open in the summer of 2020. The Gills have also renovated two hotels in downtown Davenport.
