Hilton teams with Uber to offer guests smoother travel and city guides
Hilton Worldwide has announced a new technology-driven partnership with ride-sharing service Uber to streamline travel experiences for Hilton guests.
Through the tie-up, Hilton guests around the world can set Uber ‘Ride Reminders’, which come in the form of automated phone notifications making it easy to request Uber rides to and from the hotel when needed. They will also receive a US$20 (€18, £13) discount on their first ride.
Additionally, Hilton HHonors members will soon be able to explore the ‘Local Scene’ in select US cities through a digital guide of the top trending restaurants and nightlife spots selected for being the most frequented destinations with Uber riders. This will be accessible through the HHonors app, on which members can already book a stay, check-in, select their room, pre-order amenities and use their smartphone to enter their hotel room door with a digital key.
“By partnering with Uber, a leading innovator, we’re helping travellers explore destinations like they’re locals,” said Rich DiStefano, senior director of Mobile Products at Hilton Worldwide.
“This is the first time any company has leveraged Uber riders’ most frequented destinations to provide local recommendations. We’re excited to offer these unique benefits for our loyal guests.”
