The eight-story hotel will have 252 guest rooms, a fitness center, an on-site restaurant with room service and an outdoor pool.
Construction on the 179,000-square-foot hotel is expected to begin in the summer of 2022, with completion slated for 2024.
It will also have ballrooms to be used as meeting spaces.
The project will cost $70 million.
Once construction is completed, the hotel plans to hire 85 full-time and 40 part-time employees.
