Hilton Worldwide has recently opened the Hilton New Delhi/Janakpuri, in India. The 228 guest room property marks the arrival of the first and only internationally branded full service, upscale property in West Delhi.

Martin Rinck, President – Asia Pacific, Hilton Worldwide, commented, “This hotel opening is significant for Hilton Worldwide.
