Hilton’s “Tru” Brand Comes to Oklahoma

Hilton Worldwide has broken ground on its second Tru by Hilton. The property is five miles from the Will Rogers World Airport, at 802 S. Meridian Ave. in Oklahoma City. Opening is scheduled for next spring.

Tru by Hilton is different from the standard hotel in that its lobby area offers four “zones” for lounging, working, eating or playing. Designed to appeal cross-generationally, complementary amenities will include a unique toppings bar breakfast; coffee and tea; mobile check-in and Digital Key available through the Hilton HHonors mobile app; a multifunctional fitness center; and plenty of wifi bandwidth.

Hilton Worldwide has 70 approvals and 172 more deals committed or in progress, up from 130 hotels in January when the brand launched at The Americas Lodging Investment Summit.
