The place
The 233,330-square-foot development sits adjacent to the Las Vegas Convention Center, positioned to serve convention attendees, business travelers and long-stay guests along the Convention Center corridor.
The concept
Mortenson Development closed construction financing and broke ground on June 15, 2026 on this dual-branded, 18-story tower — the company's first project as owner-developer in Las Vegas, with Mortenson also serving as general contractor. PK Architects of Tempe, Arizona designed the building, with interiors by Denver-based Wild Muse Interiors. The 397 rooms split into 237 AC Hotel rooms and 160 Residence Inn suites, sharing a single roof but distinct arrival and amenity experiences: a dedicated Residence Inn lounge with complimentary breakfast on one side, an AC Hotel lounge and rooftop pool deck with Las Vegas skyline views on the other, alongside shared flexible meeting and event space, a fitness center, and a coffee bar and retail market.
Dining & wellness
A coffee bar and retail market, a Residence Inn breakfast lounge, and a rooftop pool deck with a patio, bar and AC Hotel lounge are planned; no standalone restaurant has been announced.
