Hilton's 'Worst-Kept Secret' To Be Unveiled At ALIS
November 21, 2008
Hilton Hotels Corp. has announced a press conference for January, during the Americas Lodging Investment Summit, to unveil the company’s "new development concept."
The press invite reads in part: "One of HHC’s core objectives is global growth; the news shared at this ALIS press event will outline impetus for growth and an exciting new product concept designed to meet the needs of an underrepresented segment of the market."
Brad Carmony, director of brand communications for Homewood Suites by Hilton, admitted to me this morning that the forthcoming announcement may be "the worst-kept secret in the industry."
Since Chris Nassetta came on board as president and CEO of Hilton a year ago, the company has been talking openly about its plans to enter the upscale lifestyle segment and to expand its luxury portfolio. Hilton made a high-profile move this summer toward those ends, plucking Ross Klein from Starwood. Klein, of course, was integral in guiding W Hotels to the top of the branded lifestyle category.
So let’s hear some informed speculation from all you industry insiders: What exactly will Hilton be announcing on January 26?
