As one of Hilton's premier select-service revenue drivers, Hilton Garden Inn requires upscale public spaces and high-performing F&B bar environments. Here is how to renovate HGI properties to maximize food-and-beverage revenues while satisfying Hilton brand review.
The Evolution of Hilton Garden Inn Public Spaces
Hilton Garden Inn properties built in the early 2000s featured compartmentalized lobbies with heavy traditional millwork, enclosed pavilions, and isolated dining areas. Hilton's latest brand prototype opens these spaces completely into an activated central social hub.
The Garden Grille & Bar now serves as the energetic heartbeat of the hotel, serving breakfast by day and transitioning into a cocktail bar and dinner destination in the evening. Sourcing the bar front millwork, back-bar liquor displays, stone countertops, and lounge seating is critical to driving high-margin beverage revenue.
Guestroom Modernization Essentials
Hilton Garden Inn PIPs focus heavily on guestroom technology and comfort:
- Power-Integrated Nightstands: Nightstands with recessed AC, USB-A, and USB-C high-wattage charging ports on both sides of the bed.
- Upgraded Lounge Seating: Deep-seat club chairs with high-resiliency commercial foam and accompanying modern ottomans.
- Custom Hospitality Wet Bars: Compact guestroom refreshment centers with integrated mini-fridges, Keurig coffee stations, and microwave enclosures.
- Lighting Architecture: Dimmable warm architectural LED lighting replacing harsh overhead fluorescent fixtures.
