Despite closures and quarantines, construction continues at the Best Western Bandera Suites and Saloon. Like many others, the hospitality industry has taken a nosedive, but hotel planners are looking toward the future.
This week, the sprinkler and AC systems are being installed. The projected opening will not be late April or early May as last projected, however General Manager Cori Reid said the hotel may be open by late May, depending on what happens statewide and nationally.
As the situation develops with the governor’s executive orders, as well as local declarations, Reid said she would determine when she will begin accepting resumés for at least eight to 10 positions.
