15 year redFor Immediate Release

NAPLES, FLA. – February 23, 2015 – Hilton Naples and Shula’s Steak House Naples today announced that February 24 marks their 15th anniversary in Naples. Throughout the next twelve months, a series of events and special promotions are being offered so that all members of the community can help celebrate the milestone.

The hotel will offer specials including 15% off of room rates for blocks of 15 or more rooms, and room rates discounted 15% for local residents during the summer months. Shula’s will feature many $15 food and beverage specials. In October, a 15-year block party will be held to highlight the year of celebration.

 “The celebration was the brainchild of Hilton Naples and Shula’s team members who wanted to show their appreciation for the community’s support over the past 15 years” said Clark Hill, Hilton Naples General Manager. “They love living here, and they want to say ‘thank you’ for helping to make it possible.”  Over the last 15 years, team members have volunteered their support to the community. This year, the Hilton Naples featuring Shula’s Steak House was named the Collier County Outstanding Philanthropic Organization by the Association of Fundraising Professionals.

Since opening in February 2000, the hotel has been named best resort/hotel by readers of the Naples Daily News the past three years and has received multiple awards by readers of Gulfshore Business and Gulfshore Life. The hotel’s catering department has received national and international acclaim from WeddingWire over the last six years. In addition, the hotel has earned two prestigious awards of excellence from Hilton Hotels & Resorts and the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence multiple times.

Keeping the Hilton Naples and Shula’s Steak House in top condition is a priority with the owners and management team. “Constant upgrades are made to the hotel’s and Shula’s physical appearance and technological features to ensure that guest expectations are exceeded,” said Pace Cooper, president and CEO of Cooper Hotels, which built and still owns the hotel. “Meticulous housekeeping, maintenance and engineering procedures also help ensure the hotel is as beautiful as the day it opened.”
