Oliver’s, a rooftop restaurant and bar, is scheduled to open in October.
Two years and three months after Scott Enterprises broke ground for a new hotel on Erie’s bayfront, the new 94-room Hampton Inn & Suites opened for business Monday.
The hotel, built at a cost of about $22 million, is the first phase in what the family-owned company envisions as a $160 million bayfront development called Harbor Place.
The hotel features 32 studio-style suites that provide extra space for up to four guests.

The development, which is being built in phases, is expected to include a second hotel, restaurants, office space, retail shops, a parking garage, skating rink, water fountains, condominiums and apartments, according to Scott Enterprises.
Scott Enterprises owns Splash Lagoon Indoor Water Park, Peek’n Peak Resort in Findley Lake, New York, and numerous hotels and restaurants.
“The opening of this Hampton Inn & Suites is just the beginning of our company’s vision to transform this section of Erie’s Bayfront into a mixed-use development project which is the ideal place to live, work and plan,” Nick Scott Sr., president of Scott Enterprises, said in a statement.
