Tao Group Hospitality will operate the hotel’s two culinary venues.
LAVO will make its Tampa debut at Hotel Cala, offering coastal Italian dining with pastas, pizzas and signature dishes.
On the other hand, BarOnda will provide a more informal waterfront setting serving cocktails and small bites.
The property will also have 10,000ft2 of indoor and outdoor event space across seven rooms, with capacity for up to 450 guests.
Hotel Cala is owned by Newbond Holdings and will be managed by Schulte Hospitality.
Newbond Holdings founding partner Neil Luthra said: “For more than half a century, this site has been part of the fabric of downtown Tampa, and Hotel Cala gives us the opportunity to reimagine it for a new generation.
“We wanted to create something that feels distinctly Tampa. A new destination along The Riverwalk that brings together hospitality, dining and culture in a way that will give both visitors and locals a new reason to experience this part of the city.”
Newbond Holdings is an investment platform focused on real estate and hospitality, pursuing debt and equity investments across the hospitality, office, multifamily and other property sectors.
