Hilton global lifestyle brands president Kevin Osterhaus said: “Auburn is centred around one of the South’s largest universities, so we were constantly inspired by the incredibly engaged alumni network and the even stronger football fan base in town. Our goal was to create a space that pays tribute to Auburn’s people, culture, and the enduring legacy that makes this place truly special for guests, students, and alumni alike.”
In March this year, Hilton signed a $210m agreement with Adventurous Journeys Capital Partners (AJ Capital) to acquire the Graduate Hotels brand.
