The NoMad brand will be fully integrated into Hilton’s commercial platforms, including Hilton Honors. All NoMad properties will remain independently owned. NoMad Las Vegas is excluded from the transaction and will rebrand to a new flag in the coming months. Hilton projects that as many as 100 NoMad properties will be developed globally
