Led by owner Related Companies, South Florida’s visionary development company, the newly transformed hotel is conveniently connected to the Palm Beach County Convention Center and situated steps away from the burgeoning city center, a must-visit destination with a treasure trove of retail, art installations and local community activations.

“Hilton West Palm Beach has been a beacon of hospitality in Downton West Palm Beach since opening in 2016,” said Chris Inman, general manager, Hilton West Palm Beach. “As we envision the next decade and beyond, we are proud to continue evolving with the introduction of new experiences such as Palma, our signature lobby bar, and improvements across the hotel to exceed today’s traveler’s needs.” “With an expanding array of world-class dining and shopping establishments and an ever-growing arts and culture scene, there’s never been a better time to visit West Palm Beach,” said Gopal Rajegowda, partner, Related Southeast. “With the transformative renovation of Hilton West Palm Beach, Related gives tourists another reason to visit the area and continues our investment in the City’s growing economy.”

Led by the globally recognized New York City-based design boutique, Meyer Davis Studio, Hilton West Palm Beach’s all-new look and feel begins in the lobby with the introduction of the new bar and encompasses all accommodations and al fresco spaces, including its palm-tree-adorned pool deck, and revitalized food and beverage destinations.

Lush Lobby Escape and Bar 
Travelers and locals alike can bask in a tropical haven at the hotel’s lobby, adorned with lush native plants, Florida-inspired motifs and intimate seating vignettes. The allure of Palm Beach is found in every detail of Palma, the new signature lobby bar, from gold accents and neutral-toned furniture. With mesmerizing pool views, Palma is the heart of the hotel, where handcrafted cocktails and signature spirits are among the creative specialties and weekend live music transports guests to a social scene reminiscent of the city, all within the hotel walls.

Distinctive Guestrooms and Suites 
The 400 refreshed rooms, including 43 fully renovated suites, feature a refined aesthetic that exudes charm and character with modern touches, artful design, expansive sun-filled views and new deluxe amenities including Byredo bath products.

Outdoor Oasis  
Palm trees and botanical landscapes line the reimagined pool deck, creating a secluded escape in the heart of the bustling city. Six newly constructed private cabanas, designed with reclaimed wood and natural fabrics feature personal televisions, a stocked mini refrigerator, private lounge chairs and a dedicated server. This outdoor oasis transforms into a wellness haven, with new fitness experiences on its expansive lawn, featuring yoga, HIIT and sound bowl healing classes. Additionally fun, energy-boosting opportunity awaits, as the lawn comes to life with entertainment including vinyl nights, live music, weekend DJ series curated by Giant Step and more.
