Hilton (NYSE: HLT) announced the opening of DoubleTree by Hilton Managua, a six-story, 147-room hotel in the secure and exclusive Villa Fontana area of the country's capital. Owned by Grupo Amano Internacional S.A., the modern hotel is the latest addition to the growing DoubleTree by Hilton portfolio.

After a more than $3 million renovation, guests can experience the brand's warm welcome and feel at home upon check-in, as the hotel boasts spacious suites and guest rooms, state-of-the-art facilities and various dining options.

Each of the 147 contemporary guest rooms features natural colors inspired by the hotel's surroundings - from lakes and volcanoes, to islands and mountains - along with décor from area artisans and artists. The rooms are equipped with stylish, modern amenities, including the Sweet DreamsTM by DoubleTree sleep experience bedding, 50" LCD televisions, spacious bathrooms, signature bath products and a kitchenette with a microwave.

Travelers seeking relaxation have a variety of options, such as the city's largest outdoor swimming pool, a state-of-the-art fitness center and an expansive outdoor deck with views of Lake Managua and the mountains of Nicaragua.

Guests can dine at Kyoto Restaurant, a top-rated Japanese restaurant with signature dishes such as Kyoto Maki and Sushi Boats. Overlooking the lake, Bar Maderas offers tasty cocktails, beers and comfort food, while Las Isletas Restaurant features a carefully crafted menu of local and international cuisine for breakfast and lunch. Those looking for fresh salads, sandwiches and baked goods on-the-go can stop by The Market, which is open 24/7.

For gatherings and events, DoubleTree by Hilton Managua boasts more than 6,000 square feet of flexible event space. Holding up to 360 guests, the four meeting rooms range in size from a small conference room for up to 12 guests to expansive ballrooms of more than 3,000 square feet. Groups can also opt for an outdoor event by the hotel's poolside garden with beautiful landscape backdrops.

DoubleTree by Hilton Managua offers convenient access to fine dining, shopping and local attractions, including Galerias Santo Domingo Mall, Nicaragua National Zoo, Antigua Cathedral of Managua and The National Palace of Culture. The hotel is also less than 30 minutes from Augusto Cesar Sandino Airport.
