The hotel is situated in one of the most dynamic technology and defense hubs in the Southeast and was constructed in a Qualified Opportunity Zone ("QOZ"). It is strategically located within a mile of Boeing, NASA and the FBI's Huntsville campus and sits next to an office park that houses major government contractors, including Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and the United States Army base, Redstone Arsenal, all of which contribute to Huntsville's strong economic growth.
Guests will experience a modern, efficient design with open social spaces, complimentary breakfast, a 24/7 market, a fitness center and lounge areas that reflect the Tru by Hilton brand's focus on comfort and connectivity.
Opportunity Zones were created as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which designated low-income census tracts as QOZs. Peachtree has supported the program since its inception, strategically allocating capital to spur economic development and advance its goal of revitalizing underserved communities.
Among the most active hotel developers in QOZs, Peachtree has opened 12 hotels with three under construction and three more in the pipeline.
Peachtree's hospitality management division operates premium, branded hotels across the upper midscale and upscale segments, including limited-service, select-service and compact full-service properties. The division manages 113 hotels across 29 brands nationwide.
