Home2 Suites by Hilton is a U.S.-based extended-stay hotel chain specializing in all-suite accommodations with modern, adaptable room layouts. Positioned as a competitor to TownePlace Suites by Marriott and Candlewood Suites by IHG, this Memphis-originated brand caters to both corporate and leisure guests. Introduced in January 2009, it marked Hilton Worldwide's first brand launch in twenty years. By December 2019, Home2 Suites operated 384 locations encompassing 40,373 rooms across two nations, including three managed hotels and 381 franchised establishments.
History
The inaugural Home2 Suites by Hilton location debuted in Fayetteville, North Carolina, in February 2011, and the brand expanded to its 50th hotel by the year 2015.
In June 2020, Hilton entered into an exclusive management licensing agreement with Fanyard Hotels, a subsidiary of Country Garden, to develop Home2 Suites properties throughout China, with plans to establish more than 1,000 new hotels in that region.
Design and construction
The architectural and interior design of Home2 Suites was crafted by FRCH Design Worldwide, a firm based in Cincinnati. The majority of these hotels are newly built following a standardized design and layout blueprint. Typically constructed within less than twelve months, each property usually includes 108 suites spread over approximately 56,658 square feet, which incorporates around 4,200 square feet of communal areas. Suite sizes vary from studio units of 323 square feet to one-bedroom suites measuring up to 490 square feet. The buildings are constructed as four-story wood-frame structures on plots smaller than two acres.
