Great Lakes Capital, in collaboration with Nebraska Furniture Mart (NFM) and the City of Cedar Park, has signed an agreement for a new Marriott hotel and convention centre in Cedar Park, Texas, US.

The construction of a full-service hotel is scheduled to begin in May 2025. The property will be situated in CedarView, a mixed-use development.

Great Lakes Capital managing partner Ryan Rans said: “The development of this hotel and convention centre in CedarView underscores our commitment to creating vibrant, connected communities that elevate the standard of hospitality.

“We are thrilled to partner with NFM and the City of Cedar Park to bring this transformative project to life.”

The hotel is expected to feature approximately 300 guest rooms, a 30,000ft² event and meeting area, dining options and a pool area, serving both business and leisure travellers.

NFM executive vice-president Ryan Blumkin said: “This hotel and event space will offer a critical resource for Cedar Park and the greater Austin area.

“We are excited to collaborate with GLC and the City of Cedar Park to create a destination that blends convenience, sophistication, and community.”

This project is expected to open in the first quarter of 2027.
