Rates will include amenities like complimentary Wi-Fi, however the rooms themselves might be smaller than those at other Hilton hotels. Tru will also feature large communal areas perfect for activities like lounging or working, as well as some fun areas like a play room with ping pong, which will certainly appeal to millennial sensibilities.An artist’s rendering of what Tru’s rooms will look like.

Hilton has already signed 102 properties, with 30 more expected to come to major cities like Dallas, Portland and Nashville. Travelers can expect to see the first Tru hotel open its doors by the end of 2016.H/T: USA Today
