Hilton’s luxury story is no longer defined solely by Waldorf Astoria (though, there’s plenty to brag about on that front), Conrad or LXR Hotels & Resorts. One year into its exclusive partnership with Small Luxury Hotels of the World, Hilton has quickly reshaped its high-end portfolio by adding hundreds of boutique properties and opening doors to destinations where the company previously had little or no presence.
What began with nearly 400 SLH properties in 2024 has now grown to more than 450, with Hilton and SLH bringing on board, on average, more than one new hotel each week. The partnership has extended Hilton’s luxury footprint from 35 to 90 countries and expanded its global reach from 124 to 136, including debuts in Andorra, Cambodia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, São Tomé and Principe, and Slovenia.
