Hawkins Way Capital to Develop Dual-Branded Marriott Residence Inn and AC Hotel in Oakland’s Uptown District
The high-rise hotel will contain a Marriott Residence Inn and an AC Hotel, which both are Marriott brands, and would be 18 stories high and contain up to 286 hotel rooms.
The principal developer of the hotel is Beverly Hills-based Hawkins Way Capital, a real estate firm led by managing partners Ross Walker and Karan Suri and by advising partner Wolff.
The proposed hotel, located at 1431 Jefferson St., has received all necessary Oakland city planning approvals, and was designed by San Francisco-based Stanton Architecture.
The lower levels would be in the Residence Inn style, geared towards longer stays, with a mix of studios and one-bedroom apartments. The upper floors would be in the AC Hotels style, aimed at millennial customers and shorter stays and with a "higher level of finishes and amenities," the city planners stated.
Located in downtown Oakland's Uptown District, a bustling nightlife, restaurant, arts and entertainment district, the hotel would front on Jefferson, 14th and 15th streets.
