SAN DIEGO
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) announced the development of a new InterContinental Hotels & Resorts property in San Diego by Lankford-Phelps-Portman (LPP), a development partnership. Set to open in 2018, the 400-room hotel will be part of a multi-phase mixed-use development, known as BRIC, on the former site of Lane Field in the North Embarcadero area of downtown San Diego.
“The BRIC development will be a significant addition to San Diego’s North Embarcadero area,” said Ambrish Baisiwala, CEO, Portman Holdings. “This will be the first new full-service hotel—with meeting space and other amenities—on the waterfront for some time.”
The InterContinental San Diego hotel will be owned by LPP and managed by IHG. Portman, the managing partner of LPP, also owns the recently-opened Hotel Indigo Atlanta Downtown hotel and a second Hotel Indigo hotel, set to open in early 2017 in the Lower Downtown (LoDo) area of Denver.
At 18 stories tall, the new property will feature a signature InterContinental Club Lounge, restaurant and lounge, fitness center and spa. The hotel will offer 21 suites and 23,000 square feet of meeting space.
There will be a significant amount of outdoor space for guests to take advantage of the beautiful San Diego weather, including a rooftop bar and outdoor pool overlooking the bay.
Located just a quarter mile from the historic Gaslamp Quarter, the property will provide guests access to the most beautiful and exciting offerings of the expanding downtown San Diego districts.
