PHOENIX — Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. is making a play to become the hospitality provider of choice for electric vehicle owners.
The McLean, Virginia-based hotel giant announced it plans to install up 20,000 Tesla Universal Wall Connectors at 2,000 of its hotels in the U.S., Canada and Mexico starting next year.
A new Hilton-branded 204-room hotel is scheduled to open in the Park Central complex in midtown Phoenix in 2024, while a Homewood Suites Hotel by Hilton was proposed earlier this year for the new Mercy Center mixed-use project in Gilbert.
