Loews Hotels & Co has announced plans for Americana by Loews Hotels – Arlington, TX, marking the brand’s third hotel in the city’s Entertainment District.
Set to replace the existing Sheraton Arlington Hotel, Americana by Loews Hotels will feature 507 guest rooms, including 39 suites.
Designed with meetings and events at its core, the property will offer more than 83,000 square feet of total indoor and outdoor meeting and event space, including a 10,000-square foot Event Barn.
Americana by Loews Hotels will be the brand’s 28th property, and its name pays tribute to the iconic Americana Hotel in Bal Harbour, Florida — a Loews landmark that opened in 1956.
A “ground-shaking” event, where the existing Shearton Arlington hotel will be demolished, is planned for early June, marking the official start of construction on the new hotel this summer.
“This project reflects our strong belief in Arlington as a dynamic destination and our confidence in its continued growth,” said Alex Tisch, president and chief executive officer of Loews Hotels & Co. “Americana by Loews Hotels honors our heritage while looking ahead, bringing together scale, service excellence, and design to support group and leisure travelers alike. As our third hotel in Arlington, it also marks an important milestone for Loews as owner, operator, and developer.”
With the opening of Americana, the Loews Hotels & Co campus in Arlington will have a total of 1,695 guest rooms and more than 374,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor meeting space.
Loews Hotels & Co is a hospitality company encompassing branded independent Loews Hotels and a mix of partner-brand hotels.
Loews Hotels & Co owns and/or operates 27 hotels and resorts across the U.S., including 11 hotels at Universal Orlando Resort with three new hotels that opened in 2025 as part of their partnership with Comcast NBC Universal.
