Homebase Partners, of Bozeman Montana, is planning to demolish the old Clayton Police HQ building at 227 South Central Avenue, in Clayton Missouri, for a 12 floors AC Hotel. This hotel will be the first new hotel in Downtown Clayton in over 20 years when it opens in Late 2020. Currently, the developer has a desire to break ground in the Spring of 2019 with the original plans presented in February 2018. This particular AC Hotel will be the third AC Brand in the region (behind Central West End [Proposed] and Downtown [Proposed] and will be the second property in St. Louis developed by Homebase (other is Central West End AC Hotel [Proposed]).
This particular hotel will be 196 rooms in size and will include a rooftop bar for the general public. There will be no street level retail (despite it being a block North of the MetroLink station). The hotel is right up against the massive Clayton Metro garage but the design takes that into consideration by not giving any hotel rooms that view. The Hotel is on the same block as the recently completed 212 South Meramec tower. The block is also the subject of a potential overhaul with new high rises and mid rises. The cost of the hotel is $45 million.
