Hilton is an international chain of luxury hotels and resorts. It was founded by Conrad Hilton who bought his first hotel in Cisco, Texas in 1919. Hilton expanded his enterprise until it became a leader in the U.S. market and the country’s first coast-to-coast chain. Today, there are more than 3,500 hotels in 81 countries. Its website says: “Hilton Worldwide is the leading global hospitality company, spanning the lodging sector from luxurious full-service hotels and resorts to extended-stay suites and mid-priced hotels.” The company says its commitment is to “creating exceptional guest experiences” and that their “more than 130,000 team members continue to bring the highest quality of service to the world's visitors.” The company established a guest loyalty program called Hilton Honors, which has partnerships with airlines and car rental companies.
