Curio – A Collection by Hilton is a luxury hotel brand part of Hilton Worldwide's portfolio.[3] Curio is a soft brand, meaning its hotels are supported by Hilton, but retain their own individual branding.[4][3] Hilton selects independent boutique hotels to be part of the Curio collection based on their character and with the aim of offering travelers a unique local experience.[4][2]

The brand was launched in June 2014.[3] By January 2016, Curio had opened 20 hotels[1] in four countries including the United States, Jamaica, Argentina and Germany.[2]

Curio collection hotels use Hilton's reservation system and are part of Hilton HHonors, Hilton Worldwide’s guest-loyalty program.[3]
