Wynwood is slated for hotel. You’ll need to wait a bit to check in.
Wynwood has art, restaurants, bars, offices and apartments — but few tourist digs. That’s about to change.
Mr. Krymwood, a 76-room hotel, is coming to 176 NW 28th St., adjacent to the Latin American restaurant R House Wynwood, according to a press release by the project’s developer Michael Krymchantowski. The 8-story hotel is slated to open by October 2023.
At Mr. Krymwood, rooms will measure 300 square feet to 700 square feet. Amenities include a speakeasy and club, restaurant, indoor lounge and bar, gym, outdoor bar and rooftop pool.
Krymchantowski already has a modest short-term apartment rental building, Krymwood Flats, on Northwest 29th Street.
The new hotel, Krymchantowski said in the press release, “will bring an incredible sense of growth to one of Miami’s most beloved neighborhoods.”
With funding already in hand from QKapital Group, Krymchantowski plans to launch construction on the $20 million project by March 2022.
The South Florida hospitality industry suffered during the pandemic as travel came to a halt and hotels sat mostly empty. Lodges rarely booked a hotel guest. Although some closed during the pandemic, others survived as the economy reopened.
The story has been updated to reflect the estimated construction cost for the project.
