Motto by Hilton Nashville Downtown — Apple Hospitality acquisition
Apple opened and acquired the newly constructed 260-room Motto by Hilton Nashville Downtown on December 22, 2025 for approximately $98.2 million, or $378,000 per key as Apple rounded it. Harbor PPK is $98.2 million ÷ 260. Fixed-price take-out ahead of development is Apple’s narrative. Not a slice of Host’s $530 million 1 Hotel + Embassy Suites complex — Harbor does not invent that allocation.
