Located on the historic Red River in downtown Shreveport, Sam’s Town hotel is within walking distance of art galleries, botanical gardens, museums, theatres, shopping, and restaurants. Just steps away are the riverfront and festival plaza where Mudbug Madness, the city’s largest springtime festival, will be in full swing featuring live Zydeco, blues, and jazz artists on two stages, delicious local cuisine, raucous contests, tons of boiled crawfish, and fun for all ages. Meeting and function rooms with the ambiance and state-of-the-art technical capabilities to meet our every need open into the spacious exhibit area and outside gallery overlooking the river.

The elegant lobby features a lounge filled with Southern hospitality in which to meet friends and relax, or enjoy free live entertainment. Four restaurants appeal to an array of moods and culinary tastes. If you’re in a hurry, Java is the place to go for gourmet coffees and fresh-baked goodies, as well as hot dogs and sandwiches. Featuring “Cowboy Creole Cuisine,” Smokey Joe’s Café offers a complete menu of hot and spicy down-home Southern cuisine, including breakfast, sandwiches, and salads. If great steaks and seafood are your idea of the perfect meal, William B’s Steakhouse offers fine dining, impeccable service, and an award-winning wine list. If you’re hungry but can’t decide what you’re in the mood for, enjoy a “Taste of the World” at the International Buffet, featuring Asian to Cajun to Italian and plenty in between.

Stay in shape during the meeting at the Rose Spa & Fitness Center, open from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., which offers all the amenities of a world-class spa, including restorative and deep tissue massage, facials, body treatments, manicures and pedicures, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, men’s and women’s dry saunas and steam rooms, and a heated outdoor pool and hot tub.
