Hilton has surpassed 500 open hotels across Florida, particularly in its lifestyle brands, including the upcoming debut of Tempo by Hilton.
In 2024, Florida reported a record-breaking 143 million visitors. Over the past decade, Hilton has nearly doubled its presence in the state.
“Florida has long been a cornerstone for leisure travel and surpassing 500 hotels across the state marks a pivotal moment in Hilton’s journey here,” said John Koshivos, vice president and managing director, development, Southeast U.S., Hilton. “We are proud of our multi-brand growth in Florida, where we’ve introduced the breadth of Hilton’s award-winning brands, from Hampton by Hilton to Conrad Hotels & Resorts, in sought-after locales, from the Panhandle and Orlando to Miami and the Keys. As we aim to offer our guests the right brand for their needs, our lifestyle brands are standing out in this continued expansion, as they reflect the evolving tastes of today’s modern travelers who crave immersive, culturally rich experiences.”
Lifestyle-Driven Growth
A focal point in the company’s plans is expanding its lifestyle footprint, including the first Tempo by Hilton properties in Florida, new Canopy by Hilton hotels in South Florida and the doubling of its Tapestry Collection by Hilton portfolio.
