It isn't the "end all in hotel chains", but it is Class A hotel space and DT San Antonio doesn't have much of that. The hotel market is going downhill in the U.S right now and people are traveling less. The conventions are where people are travelling. This project would likely cause a 33% rise in class A hotel space downtown within that climate and might not be able to stay open.
Is there such a thing as class A hotel space? I thought that only pertained to office buildings.
