Hilton Reaches 1,000 Luxury Hotels
Hilton has recently opened hotels in Paris, Cape Town, Dallas, Osaka, Costa Rica, Jordan, and other locations, celebrating the milestone of reaching their 1,000th hotel globally within their luxury and lifestyle brands. This achievement follows a record year of growth for Hilton, marked by strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and the addition of nearly 100,000 rooms to their portfolio. With almost 500 luxury and lifestyle hotels in development, including the recent announcement of NoMad Detroit, Hilton continues to showcase its momentum and opportunities within this segment of the market.
“Our ultimate goal is to serve travelers for any stay occasion, anywhere in the world they want to be,” said Chris Nassetta, President and CEO, Hilton.
“Our luxury and lifestyle portfolios are an essential part of this strategy, and today we marked an important milestone as we strive to have the best hotel brands in these categories across the globe. We look forward to continuing to build on our momentum with the expected opening of three new luxury and lifestyle hotels per week this year.”
In 2025, Hilton plans to open more than 150 luxury and lifestyle hotels worldwide. Notable upcoming openings include the highly anticipated Waldorf Astoria in New York, Waldorf Astoria Rabat Salé, Conrad Athens The Ilisian, and Conrad Hamburg. Additionally, the first LXR Hotels & Resorts will open in India, along with the debut of Curio Collection by Hilton in Thailand, which is set to mark the brand’s 200th hotel milestone later this year. Recent openings have featured Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique, Waldorf Astoria Osaka, Sax Paris (LXR Hotels & Resorts), Signia by Hilton Amman, Canopy by Hilton Cape Town Longkloof, Tempo by Hilton Raleigh, and The Radical Asheville from the Tapestry Collection by Hilton.
Momentum for New Luxury and Lifestyle Signings
This year, Hilton has added over 100 future luxury and lifestyle hotels to its development pipeline. This expansion follows the recent introduction of the NoMad and Graduate by Hilton brands, as well as the launch of a new exclusive partnership with Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH). Recent signings across this expanded portfolio include:
- NoMad: In recent weeks, Hilton announced the planned debut of NoMad in Singapore and announced the signing of NoMad Detroit. This is in addition to more than 15 deals in various stages of development globally. NoMad Detroit will be housed within The Station at Michigan Central, a 30-acre tech and cultural hub and part of an effort to revitalize Detroit’s historic, once-abandoned passenger rail station. In partnership with Ford Motor Company, NoMad’s careful renovation of The Station will connect the rich history and diverse innovation ecosystem of Michigan Central Station and the City of Detroit with NoMad’s global spirit.
- Graduate by Hilton: New hotels are planned in markets near major universities, including Boulder, Colorado, and Syracuse, New York. More than 50 additional deals are in various stages of development. Among these projects are plans to expand the brand beyond the United States and the United Kingdom to university-anchored towns worldwide.
- Small Luxury Hotels of the World: Hilton’s exclusive partnership with Small Luxury Hotels of the World expanded this year, with 50 additional hotels recently added. This brings the number of unique, individual SLH properties now available to Hilton guests to approximately 450. Additions this year include Nobu Hotel Warsaw, Dylan Hotel, Dublin in Ireland, VISTA Lago di Como, and Namia River Retreat in Vietnam.
Recently, Hilton has made several signings across its luxury and lifestyle brands. These include new Waldorf Astoria locations in Turks and Caicos and Texas Hill Country, as well as an LXR Hotels & Resorts property in Hiroshima, Japan. Additionally, the first Signia by Hilton hotels have been announced in Asia and Africa. The Tempo by Hilton brand is expanding internationally, with launches planned in Canada and EMEA. Furthermore, Canopy by Hilton is set to enter the markets in Tokyo and Italy.
