Tru by Hilton is an American chain of hotels owned by Hilton Worldwide. [2] [3] [4]
The hotel brand was announced in January 2016 at the Americas Lodging Investment Summit in Los Angeles. It was designed to compete against Comfort Inn and La Quinta, [5] and the first Tru by Hilton hotels were expected to open late in the same year. [6] The goal was to create rooms of 228 square feet (21.2 m2) with "clever" bathrooms. The brand uses platform beds instead of box springs and uses a landing zone where guests can place their luggage and hang their clothes rather than a dresser. Hilton realized that they could shrink the width of the room from the typical 12 to 10 feet (3.66 to 3.05 m) because typically the TV cabinet would take up 2 feet (0.61 m), but with flat screen televisions the space could be spared. The desk that was decided to be used is a portable chair attached to a table, allowing the guest to use the chair wherever they want in the room. [7] As of February 2021 [update] , it has 178 properties with 17,403 rooms in two countries and territories, all franchised. [1]

Tru by Hilton will operate as a franchise, under Hilton. When the launch of the new brand was announced, Tru by Hilton had already signed over 100 franchise agreements. [8] [9] The brand will occupy the mid-scale hotel market. [10] The hotels will offer limited food and beverage options and feature a social area characterized by a large central lobby, referred to as The Hive, that is divided into sections for eating, working, playing and lounging. [5] The front desk, called the Command Center, will also have a social media wall to engage guests. [11]
Tru by Hilton was designed to be scalable so that properties could vary in size and still fit in urban, suburban, airport or highway adjacent settings. [12] The brand's initial locations were in the Atlanta, Cheyenne, WY, Dallas, Houston, Chicago, St. Louis: St. Charles, Missouri, Denver, Portland, Boise, ID, [13] Oklahoma City and Nashville markets.

A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis. Facilities provided inside a hotel room may range from a modest-quality mattress in a small room to large suites with bigger, higher-quality beds, a dresser, a refrigerator, and other kitchen facilities, upholstered chairs, a flat-screen television, and en-suite bathrooms. Small, lower-priced hotels may offer only the most basic guest services and facilities. Larger, higher-priced hotels may provide additional guest facilities such as a swimming pool, a business center with computers, printers, and other office equipment, childcare, conference and event facilities, tennis or basketball courts, gymnasium, restaurants, day spa, and social function services. Hotel rooms are usually numbered to allow guests to identify their room. Some boutique, high-end hotels have custom decorated rooms. Some hotels offer meals as part of a room and board arrangement. In Japan, capsule hotels provide a tiny room suitable only for sleeping and shared bathroom facilities.
