Exciting Evening With Legend In Abuja

All the way from Lagos State, Legend Hotel, a curio brand of Hilton, organised an evening outing in collaboration with the Transcorp Hilton, Abuja.

Tagged, Evening with Legend, the evening was laced with a blend of hospitality and culture as the hotel thrilled its prospective clients with lavished refreshment amidst cultural display.

According to the Commercial Manager, Legend Hotel, Funmi Philip-Adewunmi, the event was a special reception cocktail packaged to give back to their old and prospective clients in Abuja.

Located at the Lagos Airport Hotel, the 250-room capacity facility belongs to the Hilton family and shares everything in common.
Philip-Adewunmi said: “What we have in common is Hilton. Legend is a Hilton Hotel just like Transcorp Hilton, Abuja. Legend is a family of Hilton, a curio brand of Hilton. Hilton has several brands – Wall of Astoria, Double Tree and several others. Curio is one of the brands.

“Legend is actually a collection of hotels; one of its kind. All over the world, no curio is like the other one. They are very unique and different. That is the reason we are called, Legend Hotel.”

Speaking further on the essence of the forum, Philip-Adewunmi noted that it was basically to introduce the Legend brand, which started operations about four years ago.

“We want them to know that Legend is a Hilton family. When you come to Lagos, you do not need to go all the way to the Island, thinking that there are no good hotels at the airport. We have all the facilities to make your lodging and meetings pleasurable.

The Public Relations Manager, Transcorp Hilton, Ijeoma Osuji, spoke on the values that have kept the brand afloat even when majority of their competitors are yet to recover from the effect of COVID-19. According to her, Hilton brand prides in its commitment to details and innovations.

Osuji said: “We pay attention to details. We are also committed to training and retraining of staff, we are always innovative and we always think ahead. It is like understanding the journey of a traveler and how it evolves over time and going ahead to position yourself so as to cater for that journey because a traveler keeps evolving.”

She further said: “What people needed some two to three years ago before COVID-19 is different from what they need now. So, they needed some reassurance and Hilton adapted to those needs and always having a cutting edge. That way, you cannot do without appreciating what is being offered to you and coming back over and over again.

“We also recognise that there is the need to give royalty back to the guests for spending their money. Hence, the programmes that we have presently help us to give back so that as they spend their money, they enjoy values as well as earn points that they can claim.”
