The hotel combines comfort, convenience and a vibrant social atmosphere, creating a welcoming experience for guests seeking a connected and contemporary stay.

“GLō continues to redefine what travelers can expect from a suburban hotel, offering elevated yet accessible experiences in high-growth markets,” said Amy Hulbert, Vice President of Boutique and Upscale Brands at BWH Hotels. “Olive Branch is a dynamic hub for logistics, healthcare and manufacturing, and this new property provides the perfect blend of contemporary design and character for those visiting the Memphis area.
