Hilton Brand Teams Up With Grubhub on Hotel Meal Delivery

Homewood Suites by Hilton and Grubhub announced a plan to expand their partnership to simplify the process of ordering food and drinks while traveling.

As part of the expanded deal, the companies will bring off-premises dining options to travelers through the Grubhub app at nearly 500 Homewood Suites locations across the United States.

“We are delighted to team up with Grubhub as we continue to innovate new ways to enrich the guest experience and enhance the food and beverage offerings available to guests of Homewood Suites by Hilton,” Homewood Suites global head Rick Colling said.

“This distinctive collaboration offers guests access to great local restaurants, helping them feel at home during their stays while exploring local communities through food,” Colling continued.

To take advantage of the partnership, guests at Homewood Suites properties that do not have on-site dining options can order from local restaurants and convenience stores on Grubhub via geolocation and QR codes around the property.

For a seamless experience, the hotel location and courier drop-off instructions will automatically populate at checkout. Guests who were a part of a pilot program earlier this year noted higher overall satisfaction with the experience, from the speed of delivery to the packaging of the food.

Homewood Suites visitors that affiliate with their hotel will also receive one free month of Grubhub+, Grubhub’s loyalty program.

“Travel and food go hand-in-hand, and we’re excited to work with Hilton to be their go-to meal delivery provider and make it easier for guests to discover new restaurants from the comfort of their room,” Grubhub chief operations officer Eric Ferguson said.
