|boycott_reason=Home2 Suites is a Hilton-branded hotel chain. In multiple locations, Home2 Suites properties have been publicly linked to the presence and lodging of federal immigration enforcement personnel (including DHS components such as CBP/Border Patrol and ICE), prompting community protests and public reporting. Separately, major reporting has documented ICE’s use of hotels (including Hilton-branded properties) in programs that held migrant children in hotel rooms under contractor supervision, which Hilton publicly condemned and said violated its policy. Because hotel lodging can materially support enforcement operations—by providing staging, housing, and infrastructure—ICE List documents Home2 Suites within the broader set of hospitality brands whose properties have been implicated in supporting ICE/DHS activity.

Home2 Suites by Hilton is a U.S.-based, all-suite extended-stay hotel brand operated under Hilton’s brand portfolio.<ref name="WikiHome2">[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home2_Suites_by_Hilton Home2 Suites by Hilton | Wikipedia]]</ref> The brand operates largely through franchised properties and is part of Hilton Worldwide.<ref name="WikiHome2" />

== Boycott ==

Home2 Suites is listed for boycott due to credible public reporting and repeated community documentation alleging that specific Home2 Suites properties have hosted or supported immigration enforcement activity by DHS components (including CBP/Border Patrol and ICE), including instances that triggered organized protests outside Home2 Suites hotels.<ref name="LAPublicPressHotels">[[https://lapublicpress.org/2025/06/federal-agents-stay-at-la-area-hotels/ Federal agents thought they could stay at LA-area hotels.

In addition, major investigative reporting has documented ICE’s use of hotels to hold migrant children under a contractor-run program during the COVID-era border expulsions, including use of Hilton-branded properties (e.g., Hampton Inn), prompting Hilton to publicly state that its hotels should not be used as detention sites and that it does not want migrant detention associated with its properties.<ref name="APHotelsKids2020">[[https://apnews.com/article/weekend-reads-c9b671b206060f2e9654f0a4eaeb6388 AP Exclusive: Migrant kids held in US hotels, then expelled | Associated Press]] (Jul. 22, 2020)</ref><ref name="TexasTribuneHotelsKids2020">[[https://www.texastribune.org/2020/08/04/border-migrant-children-hotels/ Federal agents are expelling asylum seekers as young as 8 months from the border, citing COVID-19 risks | The Texas Tribune]] (Aug. 4, 2020)</ref><ref name="HiltonStatement2020">[[https://stories.hilton.com/releases/statement-from-hilton Statement from Hilton | Hilton Stories]] (Sep. 21, 2020)</ref>

== Background ==

ICE and other DHS components (including CBP) regularly rely on private-sector services and local infrastructure for enforcement operations, including temporary lodging, transport, and logistics. When hotels provide housing or related support that materially facilitates enforcement activity, ICE List documents those companies and brands to improve public transparency and enable consumer pressure campaigns.<ref name="APHotelsKids2020" /><ref name="HiltonStatement2020" />
