About the Photo
Room for Expansion
Since acquiring Hilton Hotels in 2007, we have invested in the growth of the leading global hospitality chain. Hilton’s worldwide system has grown by nearly 30% since the acquisition, and now totals 633,000 rooms. The system added 20,000 rooms in 2011 alone, with non-U.S. rooms accounting for over half that total. The company should continue to exhibit strong growth, with its pipeline at 149,000 rooms, an all-time high.
