New hotel planned for SRQ airport property

The city of Sarasota is reviewing plans for a new hotel at Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport.

Making its first appearance before the Sarasota Development Review Committee on Nov. 19 was Kompose Hotel, a 60-room, four-story hotel on a 2.25-acre vacant lot between University Parkway and Rental Car Road. Accessory uses will include a business center, fitness center, and a 100-seat restaurant open to the public.

The Kompose Hotel brand is owned by Kapstones, a privately held Sarasota-based real estate development and hospitality company.
