MCLEAN, Va. - DoubleTree by Hilton has further expanded its global presence after opening seven new hotels in the first quarter of 2019. The brand has seen substantial international growth in the last decade, and with these newly opened properties, DoubleTree by Hilton now boasts more than 560 unique upscale hotels in key destinations around the world.
In 2008, the brand began its global expansion with simultaneous openings of two properties in Costa Rica, and at the time operated 160 hotels. Ten years later, DoubleTree operates in 45 countries across six continents, providing upscale solutions to those in or traveling to key hubs around the world, with hotels such as the recently opened DoubleTree by Hilton Miami Doral in Florida and DoubleTree by Hilton Kocaeli in Turkey.
“We’re thrilled that DoubleTree by Hilton continues to thrive as one of Hilton’s fastest-growing brands in the portfolio,” said Shawn McAteer, senior vice president and global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. “Although guests can expect award-winning hospitality at every DoubleTree by Hilton, each property provides unique experiences for all types of travel, from access to natural hot springs at DoubleTree by Hilton Eskisehir to sustainable dining that helps rebuild the honey bee population at DoubleTree by Hilton Fairfield Hotel & Suites.”
This year also marks 50 years since the first DoubleTree by Hilton hotel opened in Phoenix, Arizona in 1969. Today, as the brand celebrates its 50th anniversary and continues to unveil new hotels in important business and tourism markets around the world, DoubleTree by Hilton maintains its philosophy that it’s the little things that make a big difference, whether welcoming guests with a signature, warm DoubleTree Cookie or serving the local community.
