This agreement is the latest milestone in our efforts, following the opening of the Hilton Garden Inn Santiago Airport in Chile and the signing of the Hilton Garden Inn Zarate in Argentina.”

The Hilton Garden Inn Santa Fe will welcome guests to a waterfront location on the Paraná River. The hotel will form part of the new Santa Fe Port redevelopment project offering everything from a yacht club and shopping mall to residences, premium office space and meeting facilities.

Hilton Garden Inn Santa Fe, designed with utilizing natural light in mind, will feature 116 guest rooms, all with the Garden Sleep System, allowing guests to adjust the firmness and softness of the bed; an ergonomic Mirra chair by Herman Miller, an LCD high-definition, flat-screen television and more.
