The new Hilton Alvor, which will boast some of the finest local sea view scenery, is scheduled to open in 2012.
“The Algarve is one of Europe’s most visited holiday destinations and we believe in its potential for growing Hilton’s portfolio of hotels, with its great weather, vibrant culture and strong tourism infrastructure,” Patrick Fitzgibbon, Hilton Worldwide Senior Vice President – Development, said. “Hilton Alvor will be a stunning hotel and we are delighted to be working with HN Group to manage this resort property, which we believe will raise the benchmark for upscale accommodation in the area.”
"Occupying a prime location in Alvor’s tourist area, the hotel will be set within a 4.5 hectare park overlooking the magnificent Alvor beach. Hilton Alvor will offer 174 guestrooms, a full service restaurant including extensive outside dining, two bars, a large ballroom with internal and external pre-function, an all-embracing spa and fitness centre, several outdoor swimming pools, plus retail outlets. For business guests, the property will offer meeting and conference facilities of over 500m2. The large formal square which surrounds the hotel entrance will be able to host a variety of specialist events throughout the year," Hilton Hotels informed.
“This resort will revolutionise the tourist industry in the Western Algarve region in providing a superbly equipped five star hotel designed expressly for guest comfort and providing a complete range of activities and pastimes for them to participate in,” HN Group CEO Rakesh Kanabar said.
“Located in the western half of the Algarve, Alvor has a heritage of being an important port during the Moorish occupation. The area offers one of the best climates in Europe, spectacular coastal locations and the charming nearby village of Alvor, full of typical Algarve local colour within its pretty narrow streets, numerous restaurants, shops and bars.
“Hilton Alvor is a fantastic new addition to the Hilton brand portfolio, which includes great resorts in major leisure destinations around the world,” said Dave Horton, Global Head, Hilton Hotels. “The hotel will deliver what Hilton does best - truly upscale accommodations, facilities that are second to none and impeccable service.”
