THE WOODLANDS/HOUSTON, Texas
The Howard Hughes Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, The Woodlands Development Company, have begun construction on a 205-key Embassy Suites Hotel at Hughes Landing, a 66-acre mixed-use development in The Woodlands (a Houston-area community).
Located on Lake Woodlands, Hughes Landing is a waterfront destination made up of retailers, dining, entertainment, multifamily residences and office space.
The new 205-room Embassy Suites will be an all-suite, full-service hotel for both business and leisure travelers, slated for completion in late 2015. The property will feature 3,000 square feet of meeting and event space; the Embassy BusinessLink Business Center; a full-service bar and restaurant; and a 4,000-square-foot rooftop pool deck that overlooks Lake Woodlands.
A 24-hour fitness center will include cardio, balance equipment and weight-training options.
Hughes Landing will also include Whole Foods Market, Pier 1 Imports, Escalante's Fine Tex-Mex and Tequila, Local Pour gastropub, Del Frisco's Grille and California Pizza Kitchen. The first multifamily development in Hughes Landing, One Lake's Edge, will feature 390 luxury residences and is expected to open in early 2015.
