“We are thrilled to have three brands rank highest in the J.D. Power 2023 North America Hotel Guest Satisfaction Index,” said Matt Schuyler, chief brand officer, Hilton. “This recognition is a testament to our ongoing commitment to guest satisfaction across all our brands and to our teams around the world that are delivering the most reliable and friendly stay experiences each day."
