Davidson, which owns and has managed the property since 1997, completed the renovation in several phases to minimize guest disruptions.
“The renovation of the Hilton Eugene & Conference Center essentially brings the hotel to ‘like-new’ status,” said John Belden, (photo at right below) Davidson’s president and chief executive officer. “The hotel now is well positioned to maintain its standing as Eugene’s premier hotel and meeting facility.”
Highlights of the major upgrade include a complete redesign of all of the hotel’s gu
est rooms and suites, to incorporate the Hilton Serenity Bed & Bath Collection, which includes a plush-top mattress, fine European-style linens and Crabtree & Evelyn bath amenities; 32” LCD televisions; and Cuisinart direct brew coffee maker. The renovations also include a refurbished fitness center with Fitness by Precor facilities, which utilize Precor-developed strength, cardio and entertainment equipment.
The Hilton Eugene & Conference Center is centrally located at 66 East Sixth Avenue in the heart of downtown Eugene, adjacent to the nationally renowned Hult Center for the Performing Arts. It is easily accessible to the University of Oregon, 5th Street Public Market, the Eugene Federal Courthouse and the Willamette river front with miles of beautiful scenery.
