Hilton Announces SLH Partnership
Hilton and Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) revealed today the surprising news that the two companies have reached an exclusive strategic partnership.
The agreement means that Hilton guests will soon have access to hundreds of independently owned luxury hotels in the most sought-after destinations around the world. It also means that SLH will end its partnership with World of Hyatt, which has been in place since 2018.
The Hilton-SLH partnership will dramatically expand the luxury options offered by Hilton as unique SLH properties join other luxury brands in the Hilton portfolio such as Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts and LXR Hotels & Resorts.
Through this exclusive partnership, which will ramp up in the months ahead, all of Hilton’s customers will soon be able to book, earn and redeem points for stays at participating properties in the SLH community of 560 luxury boutique hotels spanning 90 countries. More details of this new relationship will be announced soon.
Hyatt has confirmed that it will indeed part ways with SLH, telling TPG that they “have mutually made the decision to end our relationship with SLH in the near future”. Hyatt acquired Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2023, and that program has overlapping properties with SLH.
