– Hilton Worldwide today welcomed SLS Las Vegas to its newest brand, Curio – A Collection by Hilton. Curated for travelers who seek local discovery and authentic experiences, Curio – A Collection by Hilton is a carefully selected, global collection of distinctive four to five star hotels.

SLS Las Vegas, owned by Stockbridge/SBE Holdings, LLC a joint venture of Stockbridge Capital and sbe Entertainment Group, is located on the bourgeoning north end of the Las Vegas Strip at the site of the former Sahara Hotel and Casino – a location steeped in Las Vegas history. The resort recently opened following a three-year, $415 million renovation including: the redevelopment of three existing towers, a collection of sbe's most beloved brands and the introduction of original concepts in a sophisticated, yet approachable setting.

"SLS Las Vegas is an exciting example of how Curio provides limitless opportunities for the ambitions of hotel owners and the expectations of their guests, backed up by the assurance the Hilton name provides and the benefits of our HHonors loyalty program," said Dianna Vaughan, global head, Curio – A Collection by Hilton. " SLS Las Vegas and The Highland Dallas, the first two hotels to join Curio, illustrate the range and diversity we are curating among these one-of-a-kind hotels that embody the fabric of their communities."

The re-imagination of this 2.5 million square foot development features more than 1,600 guest rooms and suites; 30,000 square feet of flexible meeting space; a collection of seven Fred Segal retail boutiques and nearly 60,000 feet of non-stop casino gaming action including a high limit room and sports book operated by William Hill.

"We've captured the best of the best of sbe's award-winning hospitality brands at SLS Las Vegas and in collaboration with our partners at Hilton, we're making that experience available to their global community of guests."

Every element of SLS Las Vegas' guest rooms, multi-concept restaurants and social atmospheres was conceptualized by visionary Philippe Stark in collaboration with Gensler.
