“Waldorf Astoria Texas Hill Country’s signing marks a monumental milestone for Hilton and is integral to both our growth in the state, which represents Hilton’s largest hotel portfolio in the U.S., and Hilton luxury brands portfolio expansion across the Americas,” said Amy King, Vice President, Luxury & Mixed-Use Development, Hilton.

“Conrad Hilton’s legacy in the hotel business began in Texas more than 105 years ago, and working alongside incredible owners, we’re proud to deliver on Conrad’s vision as we introduce our distinguished luxury hotel and residential portfolio in the destination.”

Waldorf Astoria Texas Hill Country is less than a mile from downtown Fredericksburg, providing an ideal hub for those eager to experience the charm of Texas Hill Country. This area is renowned as the state’s top wine-tasting destination and the second most visited wine country nationwide, boasting over 100 wineries. Surrounded by vineyards and rolling hills adorned with wildflowers and farms, Fredericksburg presents a backdrop and a perfect getaway 75 miles west of Austin and 65 miles northwest of San Antonio.

Created through a collaboration of Studio CABAN, FAB Studio, TIPLER Group, Studio Outside, and Paul Duesing Partners, the resort aims to be an elegant retreat for all guests, framed by countryside views. The accommodations will showcase genuine Texan design features, offering views of the surrounding Hill Country alongside multi-room resort villas designed for individual residents and available for guest rentals. These villas will include private plunge pools, outdoor courtyards, and unique programming.
