In addition to the hotel, three new residential towers will constructed, comprising 82 high-end residential apartments and four retail units.
The hotel and apartments are due to be completed and ready to open in June 2017, conceived by design firm Scott Brownrigg.
Expected to be the first five-star hotel offering in the city for five years, the £50m (US$74m, €70m) development will directly employ 300 people.
Planning approval was granted in April 2012 and initial site investigations were conducted in November 2013.
There are five existing Harbour Hotels, owned by property investors Nicolas James Group, including Christchurch Harbour Hotel and the Kings Hotel, both in Christchurch, Dorset; St Ives Harbour Hotel in Cornwall; Salcombe Harbour Hotel and the Sidmouth Harbour Hotel, both in Devon.
