A project first introduced in October 2018 and hampered by delays, including a dispute between ownership and the previous contractor, has resumed at Old Medina Crossing.
Home2 Suites by Hilton, located between Old Medina Market and the Residence Inn by Marriott Jackson, is described as a more affordable, all-suite extended-stay hotel featuring contemporary accommodations and customizable guest room design.
Consisting of 57,191-square-feet, the four-story Memphis-based hotel brand will offer 89 rooms and target both business and leisure travelers.
Launched in January 2009, Home2 Suites by Hilton was the first new brand introduced by Hilton Worldwide in 20 years.
Home2 Suites hotels are 100 percent franchised.
The property where the hotel is being constructed consists of 3.22 acres and was purchased by JHG Hospitality LLC from RMR Investment Company for $1.3 million.
