Home2 makes its debut in Fayetteville, N.C. and Layton, Utah. Plans call for 100 properties by 2014.
Home2 Suites by Hilton officially opened the brand's first two properties in Fayetteville, N.C. and Layton, Utah, but officials say the properties are just the first of an aggressive roll out of Hilton's first new brand in more than 20 years.
The Home2 Suites by Hilton concept was announced in 2009, but the brand already has 56 properties planned and another 30 in development. Six more properties are under construction and are slated to open in 2011 or early 2012 including San Antonio, Baltimore and Lexington Park, Md.
