“We are thrilled to partner with M&L Group to introduce the Waldorf Astoria brand to Finland. It’s fantastic to have signed our first property in the Nordic countries as we approach 300 luxury hotels in the EMEA region. The Finnish capital has seen growing tourist demand in recent years, and we are excited to meet an even wider range of traveler needs with the opening of our fourth property in the city.” – Patrick Fitzgibbon, Senior Vice President of Development for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) at Hilton
The Waldorf Astoria Helsinki will be part of Hilton’s global portfolio, which includes 67 hotels in operation or development.
