Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants has announced that its first hotel in San Antonio, Kimpton Santo, is set to open in late 2024. The 10-story, 347-key property includes several 19th-century German-English schoolhouse buildings, which have been preserved and folded into the hotel’s design. White Lodging, the hotel’s owner and operator, has also confirmed leadership appointments of Lynn Snyder, who will serve as the property’s general manager, and Jeremy Lander, as director of sales and marketing.
Snyder has been with White Lodging for 15 years. She has been a member of the opening leadership team for seven White Lodging hotels across the country and most recently served as the general manager at the Aloft & Element Austin Downtown. She also co-founded a hospitality junior business council in Austin that fosters community service, mentorship, training and networking opportunities for hospitality workers.
Lander, for his part, brings more than 25 years of experience in hospitality sales to his role at the Kimpton Santo. He will oversee a team responsible for sales, digital and traditional marketing and on-site activations. Prior to his role at Kimpton Santo, Lander worked with Omni Hotels & Resorts in properties across San Antonio and Austin.
Located on the border between Downtown and Southtown, Kimpton Santo is situated in the center of San Antonio’s burgeoning arts and business communities. Upon arrival, guests will experience vintage craftsmanship fused with modernist touches and Spanish-inspired décor.
Kimpton Santo’s 347 guestrooms include 16 spacious suites. The property also has eight schoolhouse guest suites built within one of the historic buildings, complete with stone-clad walls and semi-private patios overlooking a courtyard shaded by century-old oak trees. The hotel's F&B venues include a steakhouse and oyster bar, an intimate cocktail bar and rooftop bar. The roof deck, lounge and pool all offer panoramic views of the city, including the nearby Hemisfair Park. More details about the hotel’s restaurants and bars will be shared in the months before opening.
Good to know: The hotel offers more than 13,000 square feet of event space, including two ballrooms and an outdoor atrium.
