JACKSONVILLE, FLA. — Concord Hospitality has begun construction on Hyatt Place Jacksonville, a 160-room hotel situated across from St. Johns Town Center in Jacksonville. The five-story hotel will anchor The Strand at St. Johns Town Center, a new 45-acre mixed-use development with retail, restaurants and multifamily residences. Scheduled to open in late 2018, the hotel will feature 3,000 square feet of flexible meeting space, an outdoor pool, fitness center and an outdoor deck for events. Concord Hospitality operates two other Hyatt-branded hotels in Florida: Hyatt Place Miami Airport and Hyatt Centric South Beach Miami. Concord also plans to open Hyatt Centric Brickell Miami later this year.
