The 130-key, six-storey hotel will be located in NuLu neighborhood, at 710 East Jefferson Street and will be co-owned by First Hospitality and Weyland Ventures.

Hilton stated that Tempo by Hilton property had broken ground in less than eight weeks from the brand’s launch and claims that it is one of the shortest time periods from a brand’s announcement to groundbreaking in its history.

Hilton senior vice president and new brand development global head Phil Cordell said: “We’ve seen an incredible response from owners who are excited about Tempo by Hilton, and we are working together with them to bring this new offering to market in record time.

“The brand delivers a unique blend of elevated yet within reach offerings that have been specifically developed to appeal to the burgeoning class of modern achievers, and we believe that the NuLu neighbourhood is exactly the kind of place where Tempo by Hilton will not only fit in but thrive.”

Furthermore, the brand will continue to exhibit its deal momentum, with over 30 confirmed deals across cities such as New York, Maui, Boston and Washington DC. There are 40 other deals in various stages of development.
