On another track... This comes as Hilton is withdrawing from Paris centreville - unless they have something up their sleeve. There's a thread over on the Hilton board re the rebranding of the Hilton Arc de Triomphe. There's been speculation that Hilton might be on the hunt for something else in town - which would make this something of a coup by Hyatt - for the time being, at least. Again - unless and until Hilton has something up their sleeve.
