Conrad Hotels & Resorts adalah jaringan hotel yang dimiliki oleh Hilton Worldwide. Didirikan pada tahun 1985, jaringan ini merupakan salah satu merek yang digunakan untuk hotel-hotel termewah Hilton. Nama jaringan ini diambil dari bapak pendiri perusahaan tersebut, Conrad Hilton. Berawal dari satu hotel di Australia, merek ini telah menyebar dan saat ini dapat ditemukan di seluruh dunia. Per tahun 2023, terdapat 47 hotel Hilton dengan nama Conrad.[1]
Sejarah
Pendirian Conrad Hotels & Resorts berawal dari masalah hak cipta yang dihadapi Hilton. Pada tahun 1964, cabang Amerika Serikat dan internasional Hilton memutuskan untuk memisahkan diri dan melahirkan dua perusahaan berbeda, Hilton Hotels Corporation dan Hilton International. Untuk menghindari kompetisi, Hilton International tidak diperbolehkan untuk menggunakan merek Hilton di Amerika Serikat, sementara Hilton Hotels juga tidak diperbolehkan untuk menggunakan merek Hilton di luar Amerika Serikat. Sebagai akibat dari keputusan ini, selama beberapa dekade, hotel-hotel Hilton International di Amerika Serikat mengibarkan bendera "Vista International Hotels", sementara hotel-hotel Hilton Hotels di luar Amerika Serikat mengibarkan bendera "Conrad Hotels".[2] Hotel pertama Conrad hadir di Gold Coast, Australia pada tahun 1985.[3]
Pada tahun 2005, Hilton Hotels dan Hilton International bergabung. Merek Vista selanjutnya dihapuskan dan hotel-hotelnya bersalin nama menjadi Hilton, namun merek Conrad dipertahankan dan dikembangkan menjadi salah satu merek termewah Hilton, bersama dengan Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts.[4]
