ATLANTA
Swiss real estate investment company ACRON has tapped Capella Hotel Group to introduce and manage the Solís Hotel at Two Porsche Drive, located adjacent to the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta.
"We are proud to be part of the unique and legendary experience Porsche creates for its customers,” said Horst Schulze, chairman and CEO, Capella Hotel Group. “We will add a sophisticated hotel to the complex that reflects the high standards of excellence for which Porsche is renowned.”
The Solís property, scheduled to open in 2017, will be designed by the award-winning HOK Architects firm, which also designed the Porsche Cars North America Headquarters. Peter Silling & Associates will craft the hotel's interior design and the property is scheduled to break ground in March 2016.
"The City of Hapeville is so pleased to see this world-class project moving forward. We have worked diligently, with the ACRON development team and with our partner, the Hapeville Development Authority, to see this day become a reality,” said Mayor Alan Hallman, City of Hapeville, Georgia.
The Solís hotel is being developed to pamper discerning travelers with its sophisticated design and high service standards. The hotel will offer 214 guest rooms and signature suites; refined yet approachable restaurants and bars featuring fresh, seasonal cooking; and 6,500 square feet of event space including a 3,600 square foot ballroom, and a Rooftop Lounge with views of the Porsche handling course.
The Porsche Experience Center, which opened in May 2015, is adjacent to the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. The complex attracts a global audience to the auto company's classic car heritage display and restoration area, business center, signature restaurant and 1.6-mile development track.
