Luxury Hotel brand, Hilton, will be constructing two new hotels in Guyana. In a statement, the company said the dual brands of Hilton Georgetown and DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Georgetown, will be the company’s first two hotels to be built in Guyana.
Almost four years ago, a private company had signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Government for the construction of two Hilton branded hotels in Guyana, but that project never commenced, and it appears as though the main hotel company has decided to do the work itself.
Owned by an affiliate of Assets Group and managed by Hilton, the two properties will have more than 400 rooms and form part of an oceanfront, mixed-use business and entertainment complex in Georgetown, the company said.
“We believe in investing in Guyana, a country poised for significant growth and a promising future in tourism and hospitality,” said Moutaz Al Khayyat, chairman, Assets Group.
“Our choice to debut in this emerging market reflects our commitment to investing in high-potential destinations and our confidence in Guyana’s trajectory. These properties are meticulously designed to offer a diversity of high-end experiences,” the company announced .
The 11-story Hilton Georgetown will feature an elevated stay experience with 253 guest rooms and suites.
The brand-new DoubleTree Suites by Hilton Georgetown will offer 158 contemporary suites with spaces.
“We are proud to bring the flagship Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand, which continues to set the standard for travel, and the renowned DoubleTree by Hilton tradition of warm welcomes and upscale comfort to Guyana,” said Gary Steffen, global category head, Full-Service Brands, Hilton. “We look forward to welcoming travellers and bringing Hilton’s iconic hospitality to Guyana through our award-winning brands.”
The company said the hotels will stand as a testament of its dedication to creating premium and luxurious spaces that cater to the discerning needs of its guests.
