Is there a story here or is this just a FYI?

[DisneyFanKevin]

This is an FYI. Why would Disney allow Hilton these benefits is what I want to know.

[Beachgurl]

I thought all the hotels near DTD got the same benefits as the Disney resorts.

[Roll N Fear]

They have been doing this for quite some time. The Hilton is the only DTD resort that offers the same benefits as actual on-site Disney resorts such as EMH.

[peaches magee]

I was gonna say, probably because its on-site and all.

[Dr. Emmett Brown]

Basically the same reason Hard Rock Hotel gets all of its benefits. It's on-site. Hard Rock isn't owned by Universal whatsoever. Hilton isn't owned by Disney. The companies just rented out their plots of land to these hotel companies, and these hotels offer cheaper prices, but still expect the "Disney Treatment," so Disney gives them the same benefits as most other on-site hotels.

Don't the Swan and Dolphin Resorts get the EMH perks?

[Disneyhead]

Yes, the Swan and Dolphin do get the perks. But why is the Hilton the ONLY DtD hotel that gets the perks. All the DtD hotels are on Disney Prop.

[BigAl_PT]

Ah I see the question. There could be some business agreement between Disney and Hilton. If I'm not mistaken, the Swan & Dolphin are Hilton-run, correct?

[Disneyhead]

No, The Swan and Dolphin are owned by Starwood Hotels. The chains in the Starwood family are Sheraton, Westin, The W, Meridian, Four Points, St. Regis, The Loft, The Luxury Collection, and Element. These are all really high end type hotels. Sheraton is their cheapest brand.

Hilton owns Hilton, Conrad Hotels, Embassy Suites, Doubletree, Hampton Inn, and Homewood Suites. These are all sort of mid-level hotels with Hilton being their top shelf brand.

Ahhh Sheraton. I knew it was one of those chains.
