The design work for the hotel is underway, which is headed by Conor Smyth alongside Ian McAllister, Roger Tester, Andy Gilmore and David Westwood.
Located at Port-au-Prince, the 175-bedroom hotel in Haiti will feature five suites, a casual restaurant with private dining area, fitness centre, swimming pool and a lobby area with a bar, shops and lounge. It will also feature a ballroom, which will accommodate 380 people for dining and around 500 theatre-style.
The hotel is being financed by mobile phone provider Digicel Group, and will be operated by Marriott Hotels & Resorts. Full construction operations will begin in March 2013 and are scheduled to be completed by December 2014.
