Hilton has announced plans to open its first property in Lille, France.
The 124-key property will continue to welcome guests and trade as a Hilton affiliated hotel before fully rebranding under Hilton Hotels & Resorts in 2024, following a multimillion-euro renovation.
Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development, Europe, Middle East and Africa, Hilton, said: “Hilton’s portfolio in France is on a steep growth trajectory, and we now have more than 45 hotels trading or under development.
"This growth is fuelled by demand for our brands, allowing us to develop our portfolio of properties in a number of important destinations.”
Investment in the hotel will see the addition of a new executive lounge area offering business travellers complimentary food and refreshments.
Hilton Lille will also offer 360sqm of meeting space set across seven meeting rooms.
Hilton Lille joins 23 trading hotels in France across the Group's brands including Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Canopy by Hilton, Curio Collection by Hilton, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, DoubleTree by Hilton, Hilton Garden Inn, and Hampton by Hilton.
