Hilton introduces a vegan-friendly hotel stay offering everything from a plant-based keycard, to eco-stationery and carpet
Premium hospitality chain Hilton is reimagining the aesthetic associated with a contemporary vegan lifestyle. The design-led Hilton London Bankside hotel is now offering a vegan suite created in partnership with multi-sensory design experts Bompas & Parr. Everything from the pillow options and toiletries to the in-room menu and minibar offerings have been redesigned to create a boutique, luxurious and welcoming experience for ethically-conscious travelers.
The vegan experience welcomes guests from the moment they step foot into the hotel and are greeted with a specially designed plant-based check-in desk, botanical artwork, keycards and seating made of Piñatex – a vegan-friendly leather made from the pineapple’s cellulose fibers. Heading up to the brand-new suite, guests will experience a range of features that
embrace a plant-based lifestyle with all aspects thoughtfully designed including bedding, flooring and eco-cotton carpeting, seating, toiletries, stationery, in-room menu, cleaning products, and the vegan minibar.
