Guests staying in more than 740 Hilton Hotels & Resorts, DoubleTree by Hilton and Embassy Suites Hotels properties across the Americas will wake up to a new exclusive collection of in-room coffee and teas beginning this summer. Hilton Worldwide announced today the new in-room assortment created exclusively by The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® for the company’s three full-service brands. To celebrate the new offering from the oldest and largest privately held specialty coffee and tea retailer in the U.S., The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® will offer complimentary coffee and tea May 30 to members of Hilton HHonors, the loyalty program for Hilton Worldwide, at stores in Arizona; California; New York; Nevada; Texas; Washington, D.C.; and Mexico. Consumers can enjoy 20 percent savings on all products at www.hiltontohome.com/coffee <http://www.hiltontohome.com/coffee> when purchasing the new exclusive coffee blend through June 30.
“Guests drink more than 100,000 cups of coffee in our hotel rooms worldwide each day across the three brands,” said Jim Holthouser, executive vice president, global brands, Hilton Worldwide. “Six months of research and testing went into creating the perfect blend that would meet guests’ varying flavor preferences in the U.S., Canada and Latin America. We know our guests will enjoy waking up to, or taking a break with, these new in-room coffee and teas.”
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®, based in Southern California with more than 900 stores in 27 countries, is known for sourcing and providing the finest ingredients and flavors and continues its longstanding tradition of offering customers the finest premium coffees and hand-selected teas from around the world. Available in regular and decaf, the exclusive Hilton Morning Blend is a 100 percent Arabica blend and composed of El Salvador, Sumatra and Brazil coffees. It is full, complex and crisp but never bitter or over-roasted. Guests can enjoy two tea options: Chamomile All Natural Tea, a delicate infusion of chamomile flowers with a soothing, floral taste and sweet, fresh aroma; and English Breakfast, a hand-plucked Sri Lankan Ceylon Black Tea that is crisp, smooth, medium-bodied – The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf’s® take on a beloved classic.
“We’re excited to partner with Hilton Hotels & Resorts, DoubleTree by Hilton and Embassy Suites Hotels, which value personalized service, quality and exceptional guest experiences as our brand has for 50 years” said Mel Elias, chief executive officer & president, The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®. “For The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf®, the partnership helps us reach new consumers in locations beyond our brick-and-mortar stores and enter new markets, such as Canada, Central and South America and other destinations within the United States.”
