MCLEAN, Va. – (Nov. 4, 2011) – Hilton Worldwide today announced the signing of a management agreement with HH Developments to operate a Hilton Garden Inn hotel in Santa Fe – the capital city of the province of Santa Fe, Argentina.  The new-build Hilton Garden Inn Santa Fe, expected to open at the end of 2013, represents the brand’s second development project in Argentina, following the recent announcement of the Hilton Garden Inn Zarate project – a management agreement with the same ownership group.

“We couldn’t be happier to announce this newest project in Argentina and bring another Hilton Garden Inn hotel to our part of the world,” commented Tom Potter, area vice president, operations, South America, Hilton Worldwide.  “Hilton Worldwide has a commitment to grow throughout Latin America and introduce new brands to new markets.  This agreement is the latest milestone in our efforts, following the opening of the Hilton Garden Inn Santiago Airport in Chile and the signing of the Hilton Garden Inn Zarate in Argentina.”

Just 20 minutes from the international airport, the Hilton Garden Inn Santa Fe will welcome business and leisure travelers alike.

“We are proud to introduce the Hilton Garden Inn brand in Santa Fe, a business and cultural center surrounded by exciting nature-filled activities,” commented Adrian Kurre, Global Head, Hilton Garden Inn.  “This hotel will be a welcome addition to our Hilton Garden Inn portfolio and we look forward to providing travelers with an upscale, yet affordable hotel in this fantastic destination.”

The strikingly modern six-story Hilton Garden Inn Santa Fe, designed with utilizing natural light in mind, will feature 116 guest rooms, all with the Garden Sleep System® allowing guests to adjust the firmness and softness of the bed, ergonomic Mirra® chair by Herman Miller, LCD high-definition, flat-screen television, easy-to-set alarm clock with MP3 connectivity, a spacious work desk, and a “hospitality center” that features a mini refrigerator and coffee maker.
