January 12, 2023

Hilton has announced the launch of Spark by Hilton, the latest brand in its portfolio. After extensive research, the corporation decided to fill a gap in the market by creating a new option of premium economy class hotels to meet the needs of people seeking value, quality, and consistency. Currently, over 100 agreements for Spark by Hilton are in various stages of development.

Spark by Hilton provides a simple, reliable, and comfortable stay for every guest, all at an affordable price. For developers, Spark by Hilton utilizes an innovative conversion model to offer owners an attractive investment option.

"Hilton is a pioneer in the hotel industry as we know it today, and we continue to expand our portfolio as guest and owner needs evolve. The debut of Spark by Hilton builds on the legacy of developing world-class brands as we work to serve every guest at every stage of their journey, anywhere in the world," said Chris Nassetta, President, and CEO of Hilton.

Catering to guests looking to maximize the value of their travel experiences, Spark by Hilton aims to provide reliable, friendly basic amenities with unexpected touches. Key features of Spark by Hilton include:

Thoughtful simplicity
Reliable service
Unexpected touches
Consistent quality

"Looking at the economy category, we identified a segment that has experienced rapid growth but lacks consistency, giving us the opportunity to meet the needs of this underserved segment of travelers," said Matt Schuyler, Brand Director at Hilton. "True to its name, Spark by Hilton signifies the beginning of something great – a moment of ignition where we infuse energy and momentum into this category while providing the most reliable and friendly stays. This groundbreaking premium economy brand will deliver exceptionally well-executed essential services to every guest, every time, along with friendly service – ensuring all travelers have wonderful hotel experiences where they truly feel cared for."

By launching Spark by Hilton, Hilton is creating value for owners and operators. This brand is set to offer a unique opportunity for existing properties by reimagining the economy segment and focusing on areas that impact guest experiences, while also ensuring a consistent look and atmosphere in every hotel.

Owners will also benefit from Hilton's powerful network effect, flexible business model, and efficient commercial mechanisms, including supply chain management, a profitable pricing model, and customer-centric offerings such as digital check-in and digital key.

"Spark by Hilton has been developed in close collaboration with our development community, and we are thrilled with the positive feedback and enthusiasm we have received so far," said Alissa Klees, Brand Leader at Spark by Hilton. "In fact, we already have over 100 transactions at various stages of development across the United States, with the first properties set to open this year."
