Gastronomic getaways with Hilton

LONDON, United Kingdom – Travellers with a taste for upscale dining can combine incredible culinary experiences with some of Europe’s most desirable destinations, following the news that Hilton’s (NYSE:HLT) hotels are now home to seven Michelin stars across Europe. Great stays and great food go hand in hand – and none more so than with hotel restaurants that have achieved the much-coveted accolade of a Michelin star. This epicurean equivalent of the Oscars allows guests to graze (or gorge) on the finest food and drink without even leaving their hotel, all guests have to decide is where to start…
