Hilton’s luxury brands will continue an extraordinary year of growth across their global portfolios with ten openings and an impressive rollout of new signings slated across Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts and LXR Hotels & Resorts.
This follows a successful year of growth in 2022, which will see 12 openings by year’s end, including six Conrad properties, three of them being in the Americas — Tulum, Nashville and Los Angeles — establishing a stake hold growth in the existing Americas portfolio to now a total of 10 properties.
The Conrad brand’s growth in the Americas is the second largest regional brand category growth after the Asia Pacific, which currently has 25 properties. Other new entry markets across the Hilton Luxury Brands portfolio this year included Shanghai, Sardinia, Washington, D.C., Kuwait and Cancun.
“Hilton’s luxury category continues to set the bar high, with impressive growth in the world’s most sought-out destinations. This momentum continues to demonstrate our commitment to our guests and development partners for the Waldorf Astoria, LXR and Conrad brands,” said Matt Schuyler, chief brand officer, Hilton.
“We are excited to see what’s next as we expand our global footprint across some of the most desirable locations around the world, offering world-class experiences to our guests.”
Dino Michael, senior vice president and global category head, Hilton Luxury Brands, said, “Following a phenomenal year of growth in 2022, especially the expansion of Conrad Hotels & Resorts in the Americas, we are excited to continue the pace for 2023 with the first Waldorf Astoria opening in Cairo, our first LXR Hotels & Resorts property opening in Bali, and a new Conrad hotel development in Orlando, Florida. These, coupled with new standout food and beverage experiences across the portfolio, a refreshed focus on spa and brand rituals and more, reflect our forward vision to bring only the best in class to each and every guest in the world’s most desired destinations.”
Over the next two years, Hilton’s luxury portfolio will expand in ways that will provide guests with the ultimate stay experience in more dream-worthy destinations than ever before, while surrounding them with the warm hospitality and personalized service each brand is known for.
