WAUSAU, Wis. and MCLEAN, Va. – October 4, 2017 – Hilton Garden Inn, Hilton’s (NYSE: HLT) upscale yet affordable global brand of hotels, today announced the opening of Hilton Garden Inn Wausau in Central Wisconsin. The 108-room hotel and 6,000 square foot conference center is owned and managed by Ghidorzi Hotel Group.

“Our Wausau team is proud to step forward as one of the first properties to open in line with the Hilton Garden Inn brand refresh catering to the evolving needs of the modern traveler. We designed this hotel as a tool for our team to deliver an exceptional guest experience at every turn,” said Chris Ghidorzi, head of Ghidorzi Hotel Group.

Those touchpoints begin with striking architectural details inside and out to complement Wausau’s natural landscape and legacy of craftsmanship. The hotel’s custom design also emphasizes dynamic common spaces, including the grand, open concept lobby that houses the Garden Grille & Bar as well as the spacious fitness and pool areas. Floor to ceiling glass windows maximize natural daylight throughout the hotel, while tall ceilings add volume to every room.

Located at 2101 North Mountain Road, Hilton Garden Inn Wausau is in an ideal location for those visiting Central Wisconsin. The hotel offers easy freeway access near major employers, medical campuses, businesses, retail and restaurant districts, Granite Peak Ski Area and other outdoor activities.  An eight-station Tesla Supercharger is located onsite to enable long distance travel for Tesla owners.

“Guests of the Hilton Garden Inn Wausau will be treated to more than a spectacular property. My team and I are excited to brighten each stay with a smile and personal touch that makes our guests feel at home here,” said Zach Gray, General Manager of Hilton Garden Inn Wausau.

Guests can dine on-property at the Garden Grille & Bar where the brand’s inviting food and beverage options appeal to changing preferences for healthy, on-trend menu choices, small plates, premium wines, national and local craft beers, and handcrafted cocktails. In addition, The Shop is open 24 hours with a complete selection of salty snacks, sweet treats, cold beverages, and microwaveable items.

The hotel’s conference center features the latest AV technology, a dynamic pre-function area and flexible meeting space for up to 325 guests. Custom interiors, natural daylight and views of Rib Mountain State Park are welcome additions to any event in this state-of-the-art facility.

Hilton Garden Inn Wausau guests will enjoy amenities and services, including complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property, remote printing via Print Spots™, a large fitness center with top of the line equipment, pool, oversized hot tub and zero entry pool for our youngest guests.

All 108 guest rooms are spacious and airy, and boast the brand’s signature bedding featuring fresh, white duvets and crisp linens; a spacious and clutter-free work desk with an ergonomic desk chair; and an in-room “hospitality center” with a mini fridge, microwave oven and Keurig coffee maker.
