US: The All Suites brands by Hilton has reached its 800th property milestone with the opening of the Homewood Suites by Hilton New Orleans French Quarter.
The category includes Embassy Suites by Hilton, Homewood Suites by Hilton and Home2 Suites by Hilton. The All Suites brands have more than 530 hotels in the pipeline domestically and internationally.
“The growth of our All Suites brands is a testament to the power and strength of the category which makes up nearly 15 per cent of the Hilton portfolio, and the committed network of our supportive owners and loyal guests,” said Bill Duncan, global head of All Suites. “These three unique brands complement each other, and by leveraging the natural synergies across sales, operations, and development, we are able to achieve continuous rapid growth across the category. Its trajectory should only be upward from here.”
Each brand, reached individual milestones last year – Embassy Suites’ 225th opened hotel, Homewood Suites’ 400th opened hotel and Home2 Suites’ 100th opened property. The Home2 Suites brand is also one of the fastest growing brands in the Hilton portfolio and is on track to surpass its 200th open property in the coming year.
“It’s quite fitting that the 800th All Suites hotel was opened in a premier urban location like New Orleans’ French Quarter, as we’ve worked tirelessly to provide our owners with scalable and flexible building models to enable them to capitalise on the increased demand for hotels that deliver space and value in metro destinations,” added Duncan. “Thanks to our unique prototypes, it has never been easier to develop an All Suites hotel in crowded urban spaces.”</p
