Hilton announced the grand opening of Conrad Chongqing, establishing its 700th hotel in Greater China.
This significant milestone underscores Hilton’s continued growth in the region and marks the luxury brand’s debut in the mountain city, further expanding Hilton’s presence in West China.
China remains a pivotal market for Hilton’s strategic growth. With a presence in more than 240 destinations across the country, Hilton's 10 distinct brands continue to elevate the travel experience for Chinese guests.
In the first half of 2024, the company’s expansion introduced Hilton brands to 25 new locations across Greater China, including Changshu, Guilin and Rizhao.
“It is a testament to the speed and scale of Hilton’s growth in China that we mark our 700th property less than a year after we opened our 600th property here. With one in three hotel rooms under construction here bearing a Hilton flag, we continue to lead the industry as the fastest growing international hotel company in China and are better positioned than ever to extend our signature hospitality to even more destinations in the country,” said Alan Watts, president, Asia Pacific, Hilton.
“Since our first hotel in mainland China opened in Shanghai in 1988, we have grown together with China’s tourism and hospitality industry for more than three decades. We have added more than 100 new hotels to our portfolio every year, for five consecutive years. With our diverse portfolio of brands, we look forward to further enriching the travel experience for our guests with the light and warmth of our hospitality,” said Qian Jin, president, Greater China and Mongolia, Hilton.
