Mortenson Plans $150M Dual-Brand Hotel Near Las Vegas Convention Center
Mortenson Development is building a $150 million AC Hotels and Residence Inn near the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Minneapolis-based construction firm Mortenson Development has announced plans for a new hotel project near the Las Vegas Convention Center. The development, valued at $150 million, will feature a dual-branded property combining AC Hotels and Residence Inn.
The hotel will be located off the Las Vegas Strip, adding to the city's growing inventory of guest rooms. Mortenson, known for its work on the proposed Las Vegas MLB ballpark, is leading the project.
Dual-branded hotels allow operators to cater to different market segments under one roof, with AC Hotels targeting business travelers and Residence Inn appealing to extended-stay guests. The Convention Center area is a key hub for business tourism in Las Vegas.
The announcement comes as Las Vegas continues to expand its hospitality infrastructure ahead of major events and conventions. Mortenson has not disclosed a timeline for construction or opening.
This project further underscores ongoing investment in non-gaming accommodations near the Convention Center, a trend driven by the city's push to diversify its tourism economy beyond casino resorts.
