The Montgomery County Convention Facilities Authority (MCCFA) Board of Directors approved the selection of Concord Hospitality Enterprises Company to develop the Dayton Convention Center headquarters hotel, according to an MCCFA spokesperson.

As News Center 7 previously reported, the Dayton City Commission unveiled a plan back in April that would put a new 200-room hotel near the Dayton Convention Center.

It has been undergoing a $45 million makeover and should be wrapped in 2025.

Contract negotiations will be done over the next two to three months “for development of the property located at the ‘city plaza’ on S. Jefferson Street, between E. Fifth and Stone Streets,” the spokesperson said.
