Hilton (NYSE: HLT) today announced the signing of Signia by Hilton Tainan in partnership with Forte Hotel Group. The newest brand in Hilton’s luxury portfolio invites guests to experience the aura of distinction and sophistication with refined moments of personalized service, cosmopolitan amenities and signature spaces to celebrate special milestones or worldly events.
Debuting in July 2026 in the heart of Tainan, Taiwan’s oldest city and a rich cultural heritage destination, the 344-room hotel will make its mark as the first Signia by Hilton in Asia-Pacific.
Famed for its vibrant food culture, numerous shrines and temples, picturesque natural surroundings and mild weather, Tainan is a popular destination for leisure tourism as well as a center of business and commerce. Signia by Hilton Tainan will offer easy access to a luxury shopping complex and landmarks as well as over 50 museums. Tainan Airport and the Tainan Railway Station are both within a 30-minute drive while Kaohsiung Airport is within an hour.
“As Signia by Hilton expands globally, the Brand caters to the modern traveller who seeks to reach their peak, personally and professionally, and who continues their pursuits during their travel journeys,” said Vincent Ong, vice president, Full Service Brands, Asia Pacific. “Signia by Hilton Tainan will bring to life sophisticated stays marked by the Brand’s distinctive “9to5/5to9” mantra across the hotel’s destination restaurants, premium wellness offerings and the premier Club Signia lounge.”
The hotel will offer over 1,850 square meters of meeting space, featuring modern technology, anchored by tailored, attentive service for meeting planners and their guests.
Signia by Hilton Tainan will also feature an all-day dining restaurant, a specialty restaurant and a lobby lounge. Guests staying in Club Signia rooms and suites will be able to enjoy personalised service with access to Club Signia, bespoke concierge services and enhanced in-room amenities.
Guests seeking relaxation and rejuvenation can indulge in a range of wellness offerings, from a state-of-the-art spa offering rejuvenating, bespoke treatments to a fully equipped fitness center featuring the latest technology and a pool.
Mr. Benjamin Liao, chairman, Forte Hotel Group said, "This collaboration with Hilton is a union of brand strength and a symbol of shared vision. By leveraging Forte Hotel Group’s deep roots in the Taiwan market and combining it with Hilton’s global hospitality expertise, we look forward to connecting the charm of the city with modern business, injecting fresh international energy into Tainan."
Signia by Hilton Tainan joins the brand’s growing portfolio in gateway locations around the word, following the recent opening of Signia by Hilton Amman, the first Signia by Hilton hotel outside of the United States, as well as the signing of the first Signia by Hilton in India, in Jaipur. This comes as Hilton recently announced that its luxury and lifestyle portfolio reached 1,000 trading hotels with another 500 under development globally demonstrating continued momentum and opportunity for its brands in this segment of the market.
