Hotel, Conf. Center Plan Revived in North Texas

DENTON, Texas

Interest from a Missouri company has revived a dormant project to bring a hotel and conference center to the University of North Texas campus.

A proposal called for a 250-room, full-service hotel — either a Hilton Embassy Suites or a Marriott — on university property near where the Radisson Hotel was located, Price said.

The project also would include a 120,000-square-foot conference and exhibition center on behalf of the city. The company is planning a second 100-room hotel on the property, officials said.

City officials confirmed that the talks were under way but said no agreements have been signed yet.
