The hotel group continues its expansion in Europe with the addition of newly announced properties.

The brands of the Hilton Garden Inn group and Hampton by Hilton are planning more than 100 openings in Europe over the next five years.

Continuous brand growth

Six newly announced Hilton hotels will open under the group’s service brands in Germany, Italy, UK and Poland. These openings in Berlin, Potsdam, Venice, Bologna, Plymouth and Szczecin will connect more than 60 Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton by Hilton hotels in Europe.

Patrick Fitzgibbon, Senior Vice President of Development EMEA, Hilton said: “Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton by Hilton are two of Hilton’s fastest-growing brands, with more than half of our European growth plan for hotels under these two brands.”

“Hilton has created one of the most successful and sought-after franchise support models in the hospitality industry in Europe, with more than 350 hotels currently operating with our established partners and a further 170 new hotels in the pipeline. The Hilton Garden Inn and Hampton by Hilton are popular with guests and have a proven track record in multiple locations, from regional cities to major capitals, airports and sports stadiums, making them an attractive investment opportunity.

“Currently operating in 23 European countries and with plans to open up in seven new markets over the next five years, value-conscious guests will be able to experience Hilton’s industry-leading hospitality experience in an increasing number of venues.”
