Daly Seven made its debut into the dual-brand hotel landscape with the Hampton Inn & Suites and Home2 Suites by Hilton Durham University Medical Center in North Carolina. This milestone marks the first foray into this dynamic concept for Daly Seven.
The property is close to Duke University and Duke Medical Center, introduces 222 contemporary hotel rooms to the Northwest Durham area. The hotel's dual-brand model merges the distinct offerings of two Hilton brands within a single space. Amenities are integrated into a unified experience, from the lobby and registration desk to the indoor pool, fitness center, guest laundry, outdoor fire pit, and grills.
"This venture represents a bold step forward for Daly Seven," Joe Daly, president of Daly Seven, said in a statement. "As we delve into the dual-brand concept, our guests will savor the best of both worlds—the hallmark excellence of Hampton Inn & Suites and the contemporary flair of Home2 Suites by Hilton."
Beyond the architectural integration, this pioneering approach encompasses a unified team ethos. The hotel operates under a single management and sales team, fostering a cohesive approach to guest service. The cross-trained housekeeping staff ensures a comprehensive understanding of the unique features offered by both brands.
"We're proud to pioneer this concept in Durham," said Jonathan Sweet, general manager of the property. "Our team is dedicated to delivering a seamless, top-tier experience, combining the strengths of both brands for our guests' satisfaction."
