The Hilton Curio Collection Hotel Homewood is a proposed 5-story, 129-room full-service hotel to be located on 18th Street at 28th Avenue South in Homewood. The project, which includes redevelopment of the former Wolf Camera store for retail use, is being developed by Mike Mouron of Capstone Real Estate Investments.

The original proposal for a 7-story, 127-room hotel was rejected by the Homewood Planning Commission out of concern for the height of the building and the provisions for parking. The redesigned project was approved by the city, with an agreement to allow spaces in the existing SoHo parking garage to count toward parking minimums. The Homewood City Council also approved a 75% rebate in lodging taxes, capped at $10 million over a 20-year period, as a financial incentive for the project.
