Hilton Hotels are anti 2A.

[VietnamEraVet]

Recently, I attended a business conference at a Hilton Resort Hotel here in SC. Aside from the fact that the hotel was grossly overpriced and stuck us with a host of ridiculous extra fees, I was not happy to see a sign on virtually every entry / exit doorway declaring that concealed firearms were prohibited on the premises (even including the on premise parking garage, - so much for leaving your legal CCW in your vehicle if you chose to do that).

Now, as to those extra fees that were automatically added to every room...

$20 for breakfast (and it was pretty pathetic besides)
$25 per day parking
12% sales tax on everything
$30 "resort fee"
3% credit card processing fee
WIFI fee

Yeah, the per night room rate was advertised as $149, and ended up over $250 per night. And their going to tell me once I got there that I cannot continue to legally carry there? I just crossed Hilton Hotels off my list.

Hey Hilton hotel

Tourist trap for sure.
I stay in Hiltons or one of their affiliated Brands and have never experienced what you speak of... I did stay at a Double Tree that was overpriced, and Breakfast was $15.50 plus Tax, and to add insult to injury, the Fire Alarm went off at 1:00 am took a half hour or more to clear, then went off again just after we were allowed back in. Yea, not going back to that one.

Concealed is concealed. FUH.

1. On extra fees, all travel and leisure companies now pile "fees" on top of their rates. Be it airlines, hotels or rental cars, or cell phone companies, etc. You need to do your research up front to be sure you are not surprised by those fees, so this one is on you.

2. Don't generalize all Hilton hotels CCW policies based on one property. It may be that Hilton has a CCW ban everywhere, but more likely it is property-specific.

3. As others have said, concealed means concealed. To hell with Hilton - that's their rules, not mine.

A lot of chain hotels, like any other chain, are privately owned - franchises.

I almost always stay at a Hilton affiliate (over 30 nights so far this year) and have never seen a no gun sign

Just booked two nights in Watertown and they have a $60 a night “lost revenue tax”

Too bad the Marriot in Poughkeepsie didn't have those no gun signs up last week when that innocent dad visiting his son at Marist was caught in the cross fire. He'd still be alive today.

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

Meh if I was staying at a hotel (which I do on occasion) no employees would know whether I have any guns or not.....

 

[1075tech]

I never travel alone

They probably took them down after FUKH made them redundant with her CCIA legislation. It's FUKH's fault.
