St. Louis is about to become the Midwest's
second city to have a
Four Seasons Hotel. The project is currently under construction.
Executives of Las Vegas-based Pinnacle Entertainment announced yesterday that they had reached an agreement to have their hotel operate under the
Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts flag. The
24-story state-of-the-art hotel, which will be illuminated at night, is an anchor of Pinnacle's massive casino just north of Laclede's Landing. "The tower will be illuminated from within at night with a striking arc of light, creating a new square icon in the downtown skyline."
According to the St. Louis Business Journal, Pinnacle's casino and resort, named
Lumière Place, is expected to be open for business by the end of this year. The hotel will be atop a new parking garage, with views overlooking downtown St. Louis. The hotel will have 200 rooms and a 12,000-square-foot spa. Several restaurants will also be on site including an upscale steakhouse.
In November, Pinnacle announced subsequent phases to the 20-acre development could top $1 billion. The first phase is nearly $500-million. Additional phases, based on market demand, include plans for eight residential buildings totaling 375 condos, and 220,810 square feet of commercial space.
