Located on San Jose’s North First Street, not far from San Jose Mineta International Airport, Kalthia Group chose to again use Guerdon for this their second modular hotel. Production of the 99 modules took place in Guerdon’s Boise, Idaho facility.

The project sits on the same piece of land as their first modular project, a 144-room Hampton Inn & Suites. Similar in size and scope, this 146-room, 99 module Holiday Inn Express represents overdue hospitality development in the San Jose airport submarket. Both hotels are slated to open to the public in 2018. Kalthia Group Hotels will be both the owner and operator of the completed hotels.

“Our team recognized that San Jose Mineta International Airport has long been underserved by hotels, and our goal was to provide the market with much-needed rooms as fast as possible,” explains Mitesh Kalthia, president of Kalthia Group Hotels. “We chose to use Guerdon’s modular technology because it not only cut our construction time down, it offered a more efficient and higher-quality build. We’ll certainly rely on the modular construction process on future projects.”
