When we last wrote about SLH hotels in July this year, there were 294 properties available for booking through Hilton channels worldwide. Since then, the partnership between Hilton and SLH has expanded, with 100 more hotels now added to the Hilton booking platform.
Footprint of Participating SLH Properties Worldwide
Small Luxury Hotels of the World (SLH) is a collection of 571 independently owned luxury boutique hotels spread across more than 90 countries. It offers a diverse range of accommodations, from urban hotels and resorts to unique historic properties, beach resorts, and countryside retreats. While not all SLH properties will participate in the Hilton partnership, more hotels will likely be added. Currently, the collection is strongest in Europe, with 220 participating properties.
- 220 hotels in Europe
- 11 hotels in Africa
- 83 hotels in Asia
- 67 hotels in the Americas
- 13 hotels in Australia and Oceania
You can find the complete list on Hilton’s website here.
Benefits for Hilton Honors Elite Members
Hilton Honors elite members can expect similar benefits at SLH properties as they do at other Hilton properties. In the Hilton Honors App, Diamond members can find the following benefits at SLH:
- Upgrades to preferred rooms: Subject to availability.
- Continental breakfast: For up to two guests per room worldwide, including in the USA, where you typically receive only an F&B credit at other Hilton properties.
- For your stay at SLH, you will earn Hilton Honors points just like you would at any Hilton property, depending on your status tier: diamond members earn a 100% bonus on points for every stay, gold members receive an 80% bonus and silver members a 20% bonus.
However, as a Diamond member, you will not receive the 1,000 Hilton Honors bonus points per stay.
Please note that you must book directly through Hilton to receive these benefits; booking through the SLH platform or third-party sites will not qualify you for the privileges.
Booking by Hilton Honors Points
SLH properties are boutique hotels, with an average of 50 rooms per property, providing a more intimate and exclusive atmosphere than larger hotels. While the room rates are generally higher, they can offer exceptional value when booked with Hilton Honors points—especially when taking advantage of the 5th Night Free promotion.
