Could the same thing happen to <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/doubletree hotels"><b>DoubleTree Hotels</b></a>?<p>The mid-level brand's parent company, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/hilton hotels">Hilton Hotels</a></a> unveiled the new logo today along with a proper new name--<b>DoubleTree by Hilton</b>. As you can see the cartoonish Disney-esque green DoubleTree logo has been replaced with a more illustrated look featuring two mature trees in brownish hue. It looks like the first letter in the first chapter of a children's storybook. We like it but it's just going to take juliana 2010-10-14T10:31:23-05:00 What Do You Think of Hilton Hotels' New Logo?

It doesn't look much different from the old logo but Hilton assures us there are some differences, the largest being the emphasis on the word "Resorts" to highlight Hilton's 70 resorts in 25 countries around the world, with 11 more in the pipeline.<p>Here are some other subtle logo changes:<p>&#183; Introduction of a sophisticated blue logo color<br>&#183; Use of a new, juliana 2010-08-16T10:36:06-05:00 Hilton Hotels Get a New Logo, New Website and New Name http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/9/23/11307/1518

There's been a lot happening with the bigger hotel chains recently. Westin unveiled a new website. Renaissance by Marriott unveiled pretty much a new life and now Hilton Hotels has unveiled a new logo, a new website, a new headquarters (in Maryland) and even, a new name. But much like the change we saw at the Hilton San Francisco this morning, it's nothing game-changing.

The new Hilton name is now Hilton Worldwide. Previously, the brand went by Hilton Hotels Corp. which was probably just to corporatey and distant for a hospitality company. Hilton Worldwide is simple and gets the message across that Hilton Hotels are indeed located worldwide.

This was a Renaissance hotel from Marriott? B-b-b-but it was so chic and cool. And (gasp!) sexy. <p>Yes, it's true, we thought the Renaissance brand from <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/marriott hotels">Marriott Hotels</a> was sexy. Back then, a hotel rep told us that it was all a part of the rebranding of Renaissance. Well, it looks like the rebranding has been completed. And as the <a href="http://intransit.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/17/marriotts-renaissance-brand-gets-a-makeover/">NYT</a> recently reported, even the logo got a little tweak too: <blockquote><p>The unveiling is meant to call attention to the metamorphoses of Renaissance, which has spent more than $2 billion in recent juliana 2009-09-18T09:08:54-05:00 Edition Hotels Gets a Logo http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/2/28/10329/1153 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/admin/editionlogo_thumb.jpg" class="imgborder"><p>It's been a while since we checked in with <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/edition%20hotels"><b>Edition Hotels</b></a> after an initial flurry of hotel announcements and today <a href="http://passionsofazealot.wordpress.com/2008/02/28/the-edition-hotels-logo/">Andrew Calvo</a> has discovered the logo for the Bill Marriott-Ian Schrager love child.<p>And....here it is. <p>And...we're kinda bored.<p> Sure the sideways O is a nice touch but it does look like old newspaper font. Maybe in 20 years it will be nice to stay at an Edition Hotel and reminisce about the golden age of newspapers but for now this is pretty dull. <p>It's actually something we expect from Marriott but not from Schrager. Then again, Marriott's footing the bill.
