Hilton San Diego Bayfront

In conjunction with the renovation, this year Hilton San Diego Bayfront became the first Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand in California—and the third globally—to offer Connected Room technology. Connected Room, a first-of-its-kind, high-tech guest room that enables guests to personalize and control every aspect of their stay from one central point: their mobile device. Guests who stay in a Connected Room at Hilton San Diego Bayfront will be able to use the Hilton Honors app to manage most things they would traditionally do manually in a room, from controlling the temperature and lighting to the TV and window coverings. Guests will also be able to personalize their room with technology that loads the most popular streaming media and other accounts to in-room TVs.

The reimagined space offers chic, upgraded furniture and design accents including new winged headboards, sconces, blackout and sheer drapery, lounge chairs, floor lamps, mirrors, bathroom vanities and nightstands, In addition, the rooms now offer Crabtree and Evelyn beauty amenities and Hilton's beloved luxury Serenity Collection bed and linens. An abundance of natural light from big picture windows that showcase San Diego's incredible city and bay views bring the comfortable-yet-contemporary setting alive. Hilton San Diego Bayfront's hallway corridors also received a refreshed look, with new decorative lighting, textured wallcovering, sconces, artwork and more.

With a refreshed color scheme that includes natural colors ranging from slate to indigo, and whimsical artwork that encompasses the feeling of being on the water, the design combines the vibrancy of downtown San Diego with the relaxing vibe of the bay—making it a soothing sanctuary for guests. The renovation, which began December 2018, and will be completed in July.

As part of Hilton's global commitment to redefine sustainable travel by pledging to cut its environmental footprint in half and double investment in social impact projects, Hilton San Diego Bayfront also boasts a continued focus on sustainability with the following measures:

· Using environmentally responsible suppliers for all purchases

· Offering locally grown, organic options at the hotel's restaurants and bars using a "farm to fork" approach

· A towel and sheet reuse program

· Installation of a Water Reclamation System in the Laundry Department that reclaims 70 percent of the water

· Upgraded Building Automation system that improves system programming to implement tighter controls of energy usage while improving occupant comfort (this project saves enough electricity to power 108 typical homes and enough natural gas for 224 typical homes for a year)

· Built-in occupancy sensors for thermostat and light switches

Utilization of Hilton's LightStay Program, a sustainability program that accurately measures and reports on the hotel's energy consumption to identify areas for improvement. Hilton is the first major hotel company to institute science-based targets to reduce its carbon emissions and commit to sending zero hotel soap to landfills.

Since its opening in 2008, Hilton Bayfront—a AAA Four Diamond hotel—has continued to reinvent itself by staying current with design, culinary and wellness trends. The hotel's Eforea spa was rebranded and remodeled in December 2017 to offer guests unmatched relaxation, and its Odysea Lounge continually refreshes its creative craft cocktails and delectable culinary offerings. As a premier, West Coast waterfront hotel, guests can enjoy three full-service, on-property restaurants, a fitness center, heated saltwater pool, and unmatched views from the property's prime location adjacent to the San Diego Convention Center, the Padres' PETCO Park, and the vibrant Gaslamp Quarter that encompasses world-class shopping and dining.
