Omni to Develop New Convention Hotel in Texas

Omni Hotels & Resorts has signed a development agreement with Midland Downtown Renaissance, LP, a collaborative effort by locally based companies, foundations and investors, to develop and manage a 135-room luxury hotel in the center of downtown Midland, TX.

Omni, with its headquarters in Dallas, is expanding upon its Texas presence with the addition of the Omni Midland Hotel, the company’s 12th hotel in the state. The hotel plans include approximately 15,000 square feet of meeting space, a 7,000-square-foot ballroom, 135 guestrooms, a spa, a rooftop pool, a lobby bar with an all-day dining concept, and a Bob’s Steak and Chop House.

Omni and Midland Downtown Renaissance, LP have engaged two design partners with deep Texas roots. HKS Architects will be responsible for the hotel’s architecture and Looney & Associates will lead interior design on the project. Additionally, The Design Agency has been tapped to curate all the restaurants and bars within the hotel to create destination concepts for the community to enjoy.

Midland Mayor Lori Blong said in a press statement, “This development opens up endless possibilities for more conferences, conventions and events at the Barbara and George H.W. Bush Convention Center. With Omni’s expertise in the meetings and convention market, this new convention center hotel will undoubtedly enhance our economy and increase visitation across all travel segments.”

An opening date has not yet been announced.
