Hilton launches Hilton.com/Golf just in time for Dad’s Big Day

MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- According to a recent study by Hilton*, a fourth of U.S. dads are hoping to receive a golf-related gift this Father’s Day, while most American men would rather golf with their dad instead of the President. Just in time for Dad’s big day, Hilton launched Hilton.com/Golf, a website providing a suite of offerings for travel and golf enthusiasts.

“Whether a guest is teeing off to relax with family and friends or to land a business deal, we know it’s often an important part of the travel experience,” said Andrew Flack, vice president, Product Marketing and Customer Insights, Hilton Worldwide. “The launch of Hilton.com/Golf is exciting, as it provides a one-stop destination for golfers of every skill level, making it easier to prepare for the next round and to navigate the booking process.”

At Hilton.com/Golf, visitors will find the following resources:

  • Courses and Offers, highlighting information on Hilton’s premier portfolio of golf hotels and resorts around the world as well as golf offers at individual properties. The Golf, Stay & Play package is a new offer available, in which guests will receive one round of golf and a cart each day of their stay. Participating brands include Hilton Hotels & Resorts, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Conrad Hotels & Resorts, DoubleTree by Hilton, Embassy Suites Hotels, Hilton Garden Inn, Hampton Hotels and Hilton Grand Vacations.
  • The Hilton Pro Shop, allowing visitors to redeem Hilton HHonors points for the latest golf equipment, view golf tips from top-ranked instructor Brian Mogg and receive details on the latest packages and deals, such as the Golf, Stay and Play package.

*The Hilton survey was conducted by Edelman Berland among 601 Men (U.S. census representatives over 18 years of age), using a three-question online survey between June 2-6, 2014. The margin of error (MOE) for the audience (n=601) is + 4.0 percent at the 95 percent confidence level.
