COMAYAGUA, Honduras and MIAMI — Hilton (NYSE: HLT) today announced the opening of Tru by Hilton Distrito Palmerola, marking the brand’s debut in Honduras and expanding the brand’s growing footprint across the Caribbean and Latin America (CALA). With nearly 10 hotels welcoming guests and approximately 25 in development across the region, Tru by Hilton expects to have a presence in seven countries throughout the region in the coming years. Located directly steps from Palmerola International Airport (XPL) within Distrito Palmerola, the 103-room hotel introduces Tru’s spirited design, social lobby experience and value driven amenities to one of Honduras’ key connectivity hubs.

The opening of Tru by Hilton Distrito Palmerola builds on the brand’s strong momentum across CALA, driven by a series of strategic market firsts that continue to elevate brand awareness and attract owner interest. In 2022, the brand made its regional debut in Brazil with Tru by Hilton Criciúma, followed by Mexico with Tru by Hilton Monterrey Fundidora. In 2024, Tru by Hilton Cali Sur opened, marking its debut in Colombia, and Tru by Hilton Chillán Ferrat was the brand’s first in Chile in 2025.  Tru by Hilton Chapeco in Brazil and Tru by Hilton Saltillo in Mexico also opened in 2025.  In January 2026, the brand welcomed Tru by Hilton Puebla Angelopolis with plans to expand with its fourth property in Mexico with the opening of Tru by Hilton Mexico City Airport by mid-year.
