Hilton Partners with Be My Eyes to Enhance Accessibility for Visually Impaired Guests

In a groundbreaking initiative aimed at improving accessibility for visually impaired travelers, Hilton has announced a partnership with Be My Eyes, a mobile app that connects blind and low-vision individuals with sighted volunteers for real-time assistance. 

This collaboration marks a significant step in Hilton’s commitment to inclusivity and enhancing the guest experience for all. The Be My Eyes app allows users to connect with volunteers via video calls, enabling them to receive immediate help with various tasks, such as navigating hotel facilities or reading menus. 

This service will be integrated into Hilton’s offerings, ensuring that visually impaired guests have access to support during their stay. By providing tools that assist visually impaired individuals, Hilton aims to enhance the overall travel experience and ensure that everyone can enjoy their stay without barriers. At the same time, Hilton is setting a new standard for accessibility in the hotel industry.

With Hilton operating thousands of properties worldwide, this partnership has the potential to impact a significant number of guests. This partnership promotes awareness and understanding of accessibility issues within the hospitality sector. As such, it is a significant advancement in making travel more accessible for visually impaired guests.
