Expected to open in early spring, the 176-room hotel will be Hilton's first NoMad property in the United States. Plans include a restaurant, library and lobby bar, lounge, spa and more than 4,500 square feet of meeting and event space.

The 2027 pipeline reflects a broad expansion across different price points and travel styles, from city breaks and beach holidays to longer stays.
