Westlake Urban and architectural firm AO have begun the stacking of Westlake’s first modular project, the San Jose Hilton Garden Inn. Located at 101 East Gish Rd, the 150-room project is comprised of 88 modular units built off-site in Guerdon Modular Buildings’ factory in Boise, Idaho. The units will be stacked over the course of 10 days in four stories above a podium structure. The hotel is anticipated to reach completion in spring 2020.
Guided by Hilton Garden Inn’s upscale sensibility and core focus on the guest experience, the five-story, 95k sf hotel will feature the same level of finish and state-of-the-art amenities that the brand maintains throughout its properties. Public areas will include a mini market, bar and dining spaces with an outdoor patio. These areas are designed to welcome guests and passerby alike by fostering an interactive relationship with the adjacent public way. Designed to attract tech savvy business travelers, a key guest demographic, these flexible spaces can adapt to accommodate a variety of needs, from intimate meetings to large gatherings.
“When correctly implemented, modular construction is an innovative way to build efficiently with multiple benefits, including cost savings, quality control, shorter project timeline and unparalleled soundproofing,” commented Kristina Chang, president, Westlake Realty. “We are looking forward to the opportunity to leverage this method across future projects.”
San Jose Hilton Garden Inn will benefit from a prime location, less than two miles from the Norman Y. Mineta San Jose International Airport. The hotel is near US 101, US 87 and I-880, and just a block away from VTA and BART stations. It will have easy access to downtown San Jose, the San Jose McEnery Convention Center and other nearby attractions, including the Tech Interactive, SAP Center and Santana Row.
