The Ultimate Road Trip Across America Comes To Sacramento

What makes for the best travel and hotel experience?  The hospitality industry wants to know and that's the information they will seek from tourists and locals alike on Thursday, July 26th.  Beginning at 11:00 a.m., the DoubleTree by Hilton “Little Things Project” will visit Old Sacramento's waterfront area for a unique pop-up event experience. The object is to offer tourists and locals alike a welcome break from a hectic day. Visitors to the Power Up Bar will enjoy a free famous DoubleTree by Hilton chocolate chip cookie and can plug in to the Power Bar WiFi hotspot to connect and charge their phone or other technology before heading to their next destination.

The Power Up Bar hit the road for a 50-city tour earlier this Spring, taking in feedback that will make its way into additional hospitality benefits at DoubleTree by Hilton hotels worldwide. To date, more than 5,000 people have contributed feedback , identifying the perks that make their travel experiences memorable.  On the tour to date, travelers and locals have most frequently said that good customer service and comfort are the two most important features of their travel experience.

“This is a great way to get feedback that will ensure that we remain on top of our guests' preferred hospitality perks," stated Ken Leone, General Manager, DoubleTree by Hilton Sacramento. “In the current economy, travelers are very specific about their budgets and services.  Hotels can't afford to ignore the insight of travelers.  It's also a great opportunity for us to say ‘thank you’ to the community that has been so good to us over the years.”
