Tru Hotel Construction Update

Greg C. updates us on TRU hotel construction progress

This past April VegasBright photographer Greg C. shared photographs of a new off-strip hotel, tru, which was in the early stages of construction. Our astute photographer was able to capture some updated construction photos this past weekend; the new photographs show an almost complete hotel which is scheduled to be opened this coming November. Tru hotel is located at 6862 Gilespie Street, just one block south of McCarran International Airport.

Tru is Hilton’s attempt at re-entry into the midscale lodging market; Hilton is going for the coveted millennial customer with this more affordable option.

Here are some of the bullet points from their official website.
