Hilton Partners with Small Luxury Hotels of the World
Hilton and Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) today announced an exclusive strategic partnership that will welcome Hilton guests to hundreds of luxury hotels in the most sought-after destinations around the world. The partnership will dramatically expand the luxury experiences offered by Hilton as unique SLH properties join the growing Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts and LXR Hotels & Resorts brands.
SLH has been in a partnership with Hyatt since 2018. So today’s news should mean that the Hyatt-SLH partnership is ending. Recently Hyatt also parted ways with MGM which is now a Marriott partner. On the other hand, Hyatt acquired Mr. & Mrs. Smith last year, and that program does have some of the same properties that are under SLH.
Through this exclusive partnership, which will ramp up in the months ahead, all of Hilton’s customers, including the more than 180 million members of Hilton Honors, will soon be able to earn and redeem Points for stays at participating properties in the SLH community of 560 luxury boutique hotels spanning 90 countries. These locations are highly complementary to Hilton’s vast network of hotels and will give guests access to additional luxury accommodations in hundreds of new destinations.
Participating SLH hotels will be bookable on all Hilton channels, giving the hotels exposure to a broad audience while allowing them to retain the independent spirit that makes each property unique. More details of this new relationship will be announced soon.
Meanwhile, Hilton could add even more properties to its portfolio as it is in talks to buy Graduate Hotels.
