Hilton’s newest lifestyle brand in the country offers a clever, connected and local experience at this coastal destination.

Hilton, in partnership with REVPAR INCORPORTAÇÕES and MUV Empreendimentos and Atlantica Hospitality International, opened Motto by Hilton Recife Antigo, marking the debut of the lifestyle brand in Brazil. Designed for travellers seeking to immerse themselves in the heart of the destination, the 132-room property also represents Hilton’s entry into Recife, affectionately known as the “Venice of Brazil” for its picturesque canals, colourful colonial architecture, and vibrant cultural traditions.

Motto by Hilton Recife Antigo’s architecture and décor reflect the diverse landscapes of Pernambuco state, nestled between the arid interior and the sea. The ground floor embraces rustic design with warm earth tones, symbolizing the drought of the interior. The rooftop space evokes the lightness and openness of the sea. Guest corridors feature Cordel literature–inspired illustrations, while colourful artisanal carpets foster authentic community connection.

Guest rooms are adorned with forest-inspired wallpapers and equipped with multi-functional furniture, including bunk beds and sofa beds. Guests have more flexibility with Hilton’s pioneering Confirmed Connecting Room technology, which offers several connecting room configurations to accommodate groups of all sizes. There are 42 connecting rooms, with the option to link up to four at once.

Dining outlets are designed to be integral to the neighbourhood’s scene, welcoming both guests and locals. From the rooftop restaurant, guests enjoy daily breakfast with sea or river views, while the coffee shop on the ground floor welcomes guests and non-guests visiting Recife Antigo. The culinary spots are highly creative spaces where every detail tells a story that reflects the nobility and diversity of the region, contrasting with the delicious simplicity of the blend of flavours.

Located two blocks from the historical downtown area called “Marco Zero”, Motto by Hilton Recife Antigo is the ideal home base for guests wanting to fully experience Recife’s charm, its golden Boa Viagem Beach, vibrant Afro-Brazilian culture, and historic colonial architecture.
