SOUTHAVEN, MS, UNITED STATES, August 27, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Onyx Hospitality and WOW Resorts will officially break ground on a new Embassy Suites by Hilton in Southaven on Thursday, Aug. 28, marking the first step in building DeSoto County’s only 4-star hotel. The resort-style property will feature 240 rooms, a lazy river, fine dining, and indoor parking—raising the bar for North Mississippi’s hospitality and visitor experience.

The project is being led by Onyx Hospitality Chief Development Officer Nilesh Patel and CEO Sameet Patel, WOW Resorts Co-Founders and Co-CEOs Anwar Aman and Bruce Patel, along with Yogesh Purohit.

Attached at the hip to the Landers Center—home to concerts, sports, conventions, and large‑scale community events—the hotel is planned to serve as a hospitality hub for visitors and locals alike. The opening is slated for late 2027, creating hundreds of new jobs in the community.
