The 40-story development combines 225 Hampton and 127 Homewood Suites rooms across all floors, a first for Hilton Worldwide.
Hilton Worldwide senior vice-president of development for North America Craig Mance said: "While dual-brand hotels will always maintain each brand’s identity, they allow us to offer guests a greater variety of options and also save hoteliers on operational costs like housekeeping, laundry and meeting facilities.
"The opening of this dual-branded hotel brings together two distinct accommodation offerings under one roof in one of the country’s top markets."
Dual-branded properties offers guests enhanced common areas such as fitness centres and pools, and a greater choice of different-priced experiences under one roof.
