IHG Hotels and Resorts (IHG) and US-based property management company Scarlett Hotel Group (SHG) have started construction of InterContinental San Antonio in Texas.
Denver-based real estate investment and development company Trailbreak Partners collaborated with SHG to raise $158m in funding to transform the property.
The original structure opened as an office building in 1958, located next to Weston Centre.
The hotel will feature 391 rooms, a rooftop pool with downtown views and provide direct access to the River Walk and river taxi landing area.
InterContinental San Antonio will have 40,000ft² of meeting space, restaurant and bar options and rooftop amenities.
A range of adaptable indoor areas will be available, suitable for small groups and meetings. During the day, co-working areas can be transformed into private dining places.
