The project is one of the first new-build hotels created with the brand image and services mandated under the relaunching of the Holiday Inn Express brand by InterContinental Hotels Group. Portland, OR-based Wright Development is the general contractor on the project.
AHDP president Clyde Harris tells GlobeSt.com that the project is expected to cost $9 million. "The project is located on Abercorn Street, which is the main thoroughfare in Savannah," Harris says. "It's also located near several hospitals in an area that's growing." Harris Hotel Group, also headed by Harris, will manage the property.
Harris says the project was also attractive because the 172-room Holiday Inn located about two miles from the new hotel will no longer be a Holiday Inn as of February 2009. "There will be a large number of Priority Club members looking for rooms," he says.
