Small Hotels of the World The Hilton Hotels Corporation recently made an interesting deal with London-based Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH). Essentially, Hilton HHonors members can now book stays at these unique, independent luxury hotels around the world through Hilton.
Hilton HHonors members will get points for each stay and can also use points to pay for their stays. SLH has 560 luxury boutique hotels spanning 90 countries. Hilton is not acquiring the SLH collection.
Instead, the deal is a strategic partnership that lets Hilton expand its existing portfolio of luxury hotel experiences with the addition of more than 400 of these boutique properties. These properties are now available on all Hilton direct booking channels, including Hilton.com and the Hilton Honors app.
When the deal was first launched in February, Shaun Leleu, chairman, Small Luxury Hotels of the World, described it as a “win-win” for both brands. “Hilton customers will gain access to our unrivalled collection of exceptional boutique hotels, while our properties enjoy amplified reach to a loyal and discerning audience. It's a game changer for independently owned hotels on a global scale.
” Hilton already has a luxury brand portfolio, including Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts, LXR Hotels & Resorts and Signia by Hilton. Accordi.
