ASMALLWORLD AG (SWX:ASWN) announces global partnership with Hilton Impresario, Hilton's preferred partner program for Waldorf Astoria and Conrad hotels

Zurich, 07.11.2019 - ASMALLWORLD AG (SWX: ASWN) expanded its travel offering by entering a global partnership with Hilton Impresario, Hilton's preferred partner program for Waldorf Astoria and Conrad hotels. This will allow the company to offer its customers exclusive benefits during their stay.

The agreement will make ASMALLWORLD Travel, a fully owned subsidiary of ASMALLWORLD AG, a preferred partner for Hilton's luxury hotel brands Waldorf Astoria and Conrad. As preferred partner, ASMALLWORLD Travel can offer its customers a host of benefits when they stay at Waldorf Astoria or Conrad properties worldwide.

Benefits for customers include daily breakfast for two guests; room upgrades (based on availability at check-in); double Hilton Honors points and $100 equivalent hotel credit to use during the stay. These benefits come at no additional cost to the customers.

This partnership with Hilton will further expand ASMALLWORLD's travel offering and is an important element for the launch of ASMALLWORLD's own hotel booking platform which is currently in development. This new online offering will launch under the name "ASMALLWORLD Collection" and offers customers a curated list of the worlds' most admired hotels. Once live, members and non-members will be able to book hotels directly from the ASMALLWORLD apps and website. The company expects to launch this new service offering in December.

Jan Luescher, CEO of ASMALLWORLD commented: "This partnership is an important step for the travel offering of ASMALLWORLD. We are quite a new entrant to this space and getting the backing from such an established partner like Hilton shows that they believe in our ambition to become an important player in the high-end travel space."
