450+ boutique hotels, 12 new countries, and billions of Points redeemed, Hilton Honors members gain access to a world of unique stays
Hilton is scaling new heights in luxury travel. In just one year, its exclusive partnership with Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) has added more than 450 boutique properties—on average more than one per week—while opening doors to 12 new countries for Hilton travelers. The collaboration has redefined luxury within Hilton’s portfolio, giving guests and Hilton Honors members an unmatched range of experiences, from rainforest retreats to coastal villas.
Anchored by Hilton’s iconic luxury brands—Waldorf Astoria, Conrad, LXR, Signia and NoMad—the addition of SLH has propelled Hilton’s footprint into distinctive destinations like Andorra, Cambodia, Saint Vincent & the Grenadines, São Tomé and Príncipe, and Slovenia. For travelers, that means more ways to book and more opportunities to redeem Points in markets where Hilton had little or no presence.
“Hilton’s luxury portfolio is a priority growth category for us, meeting the needs of guests worldwide who are looking for incredible hotel stays in some of the world’s most exclusive destinations,” said John Rogers, Senior Vice President, Brand Management, EMEA & APAC, Hilton. “Our partnership with SLH is key to that growth, connecting owners to Hilton’s commercial engine and our 226 million Hilton Honors members.”
The results speak volumes: SLH hotels on Hilton’s booking channels have seen traffic jump 78% year-over-year, while participating properties report stronger bookings and visibility. For Hilton Honors members, the partnership has already delivered over 10 billion Points redeemed at SLH hotels worldwide.
From eco-lodges in São Tomé to treehouses in Slovenia, each SLH stay is infused with local culture and crafted individuality. Recent highlights include:
- Angkor Village Hotel, Cambodia – Khmer architecture meets modern comfort with lotus garden dining and cooking classes.
- Sundy Praia, São Tomé and Príncipe – Villas in the rainforest with plunge pools and stone-carved baths.
- Vila Planinka, Slovenia – Alpine serenity with sustainable dining and vineyard vintages.
- The Liming Bequia, Saint Vincent & the Grenadines – Private villas, infinity pools, and island flavors.
- The Blackpine Hotel, Andorra – Sustainable mountain living with eco-design and golden wood interiors.
- Château de Maubreuil, France – Artistic suites and a brasserie retreat near Nantes.
“Our exclusive partnership with Hilton continues to deliver outstanding results. This has been our strongest collaboration, driving significant bookings for our member hotels and attracting more properties to our portfolio,” said Richard Hyde, Chief Operating Officer, SLH.
With momentum building, Hilton and SLH are set to grow even further, with new properties already lined up across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, always with a focus on luxury that’s both exclusive and experience-driven.
