DoubleTree by Hilton signs 3 franchises

By James Russell: DoubleTree by Hilton signs 3 franchises

March 11, 2013

Hilton Worldwide has signed three franchise agreements for its rapidly expanding DoubleTree by Hilton brand in the UK. Having opened 11 hotels in the UK in the last two years, the brand has reached agreement on sites in Bristol, Edinburgh and Nottingham.

2013 will see DoubleTree open five new hotels in 2013, reaching a total of 25 hotels in operation across the UK.  This marks a spectacular rise to prominence for the brand, having made its UK debut as recently as 2008 with the opening of DoubleTree by Hilton Cambridge.

Patrick Fitzgibbon, senior vice president, development, Europe & Africa, Hilton Worldwide, said:

“Since launching DoubleTree by Hilton in the UK, the brand has built overwhelming momentum, particularly as a conversion proposition for existing properties.  Beginning the year with the signing of these three outstanding hotels is testament to our aspirations to continue in the same vein throughout 2013.”
