Kinseth Hospitality Companies today announced it has been recognized with a 2017 Hilton Mobley Top Performer Award for Small Portfolio of Tru by Hilton hotels. In addition to the annual Development Awards announced each year at the NYU conference, Hilton added a "Top Performer" category to celebrate owners achieving excellence in guest experience and business performance.

Les Kinseth, President of Kinseth Hospitality Companies went on to say:

"Hilton announced the Tru by Hilton brand at the ALIS Hotel Conference in Los Angeles in January of 2016, and Kinseth Hospitality Companies soon after executed an initial four franchise license agreements for the Tru by Hilton brand. We believe that Tru by Hilton is a 'disruptive' brand in the mid-scale segment of hotels where Tru provides a new option for travelers who believe that being cost conscious and having a great stay don't have to be mutually exclusive. We believe the Tru by Hilton brand is modern and functional, and designed to appeal cross-generationally, making the brand a winner with both business related travelers and leisure-oriented guests.

"Kinseth Hospitality Companies is pleased to have been recognized for our 'First In Class' Development and Home Office Support Teams to build, construct and open multiple Tru by Hilton locations, providing an experience that Hilton Honors guests love, and for the recognition for our fantastic Operations Team at the property level that keep our guests returning."

Today, Kinseth operates two Tru by Hilton properties open in Cheyenne, Wyoming (the 4th property to open systemwide) and Cedar Rapids, Iowa. In addition, Kinseth has two Tru by Hilton hotels under construction; one in St. Charles, Missouri and another in Brookfield, Wisconsin. In addition to these four properties, the company has more Tru projects in the development pipeline and looks forward to developing, opening and operating more Tru by Hilton locations within its portfolio.

The Top Performer Award is presented to leading ownership groups for brands in Hilton's portfolio with at least two opened hotels in 2017. The winners are selected based on calculated performance metrics.
