Hilton signs three DoubleTree properties across Africa

AFRICA – Hilton has proudly announced three new DoubleTree by Hilton hotels in Togo, Morocco, and the Republic of Congo, marking a debut and expansions.

These additions form part of a bold plan to launch over 100 properties throughout the continent’s vibrant growth markets.

Togo’s Airport Gateway Debut Welcomes Travelers

In a significant first for Hilton, Togo now boasts a 165-room property positioned directly opposite Lomé International Airport, offering unparalleled convenience for both arriving and departing guests.

This thoughtfully designed hotel features spacious suites alongside a signature restaurant, cozy lobby café, refreshing pool, luxurious spa, state-of-the-art fitness center, and versatile conference facilities, all seamlessly blending to cater to business professionals and leisure explorers alike.

As Togo emerges as a promising West African hub, this opening not only enhances connectivity but also elevates the overall travel experience for visitors discovering the region’s rich cultural tapestry.

Congo’s Kintele Emerges as Conference Powerhouse

Turning to the Republic of Congo, the 200-room DoubleTree by Hilton Kintele in Brazzaville’s dynamic Kintele district stands out with its impressive array of amenities, including multiple dining venues, a fitness center, indulgent spa, tennis court, and notably West Africa’s largest conference center spanning an expansive 75,000 sqm.

Such scale positions it ideally for hosting grand regional summits and corporate events, while leisure facilities ensure balanced stays that appeal to a wide array of guests seeking both productivity and relaxation amidst the city’s bustling energy.

Morocco’s Palmeraie Resort Adds Lush Luxury

Further enriching Hilton’s Moroccan presence, the 228-room DoubleTree by Hilton Marrakech La Palmeraie promises a resort-style oasis in the verdant Palmeraie district, complete with landscaped gardens, multiple pool areas, a gym, spa, paddle court, diverse dining options, and meeting spaces.

Scheduled for a 2028 opening, it bolsters Hilton’s robust 16-hotel pipeline in the country, inviting travelers to immerse themselves in palm-shaded serenity that harmoniously fuses Berber traditions with contemporary comforts.

Leadership Vision Drives Continental Expansion

Hilton’s chief development officer for Middle East & Africa, Carlos Khneisser, enthusiastically noted how Africa’s thriving business centers, profound cultural heritage, and breathtaking landscapes continually unlock growth potential.

These signings exemplify Hilton’s dedication to nearly tripling its footprint, supported by on-the-ground local teams that deliver lasting value to partners and exceptional stays for guests alike.
