Harpeth Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton ™ managed by Valor Hospitality Partners, continued to raise the bar for luxury hospitality and was recognized in two of the industry’s most prestigious awards, the Connie Award by Hilton and Travel + Leisure’s 500.
“We are honored to be recognized by this prestigious industry honor and further cement The Harpeth’s position as a global leader in hospitality,” said Justin Foster, general manager at The Harpeth. “This is a true testament to the dedicated work our team does in providing an elevated experience and genuine, heartfelt service to all our guests. We look forward to spreading the light and love of hospitality and expanding our global reputation for excellence in luxury travel.”
The Connie Award, named after Hilton founder Conrad Hilton, is the highest award presented by Hilton Worldwide and recognizes the best of every brand within Hilton’s history. It is offered at the most prestigious Hilton in America; Europe, the Middle East and Africa; and Asia Pacific regions that fall into one of two categories: hotels with 500 guest rooms or more and hotels with 500 guest rooms or less. The winner of the award is selected based on the combined ranking of two regions, including all events and research to ensure that they have a clean quality, the hotel’s condition, compliance with the standards of quality and accommodation. This is the first time this award has been presented to a Curio Collection by Hilton™ property in Tennessee, and The Harpeth Hotel will proudly display its lobby statue.
In addition, The Harpeth was recognized in Travel + Leisure’s recently released and highly regarded T+L 500 list, which highlights the top 500 hotels worldwide. The 2023 list is based on Travel + Leisure’s 2022 World’s Best Awards survey, an annual reader-based award survey of readers’ favorite destinations, city hotels, resorts, and more. The T+L 500 is divided into eight sections and is designed to be a reliable tool for millions of fast travelers. The 2023 T+L 500 list appears in the May issue of Travel + Leisure.

This recognition helps to tell a strong and convincing story of its unwavering commitment to excellence.”
