Downtown Lincoln hotel likely to open next month
Lincoln's newest downtown hotel will likely be open in a few weeks.
John Klimpel, one of the developers of the Holiday Inn Express & Suites at Ninth and O streets, told City Council members Monday that the hotel will open "sometime in July, I promise."
Klimpel was appearing before the council for a liquor license for the hotel, which was approved. He said he and his partners are "excited to open the new hotel."
The 139-room hotel has a pool, fitness center, meeting space and a number of other amenities.
