Hilton Short Hills Becomes a New Luxury Landmark in New Jersey

Hilton Short Hills has been added to Crescent Hotels & Resorts’ portfolio, giving the New Jersey property fresh momentum in the luxury travel market and strengthening Crescent’s footprint in the Greater New York area. The move matters because the hotel is one of the region’s better-known full-service stays, combining business-friendly access with leisure appeal in a market that continues to attract upscale demand.

The property is an AAA Four-Diamond hotel with 314 guest rooms and suites, more than 21,000 square feet of flexible event space, and 13 meeting rooms anchored by a 5,200-square-foot Grand Ballroom. It also features indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts, a fitness center, an executive lounge and a tented outdoor pavilion with woodland views, which has helped make it a strong weddings-and-events venue.

Its location adds to the attraction: Hilton Short Hills sits across from The Mall at Short Hills, home to more than 160 retailers, and is also close to the business centers of Morristown and Parsippany, as well as Newark Liberty International Airport. That positioning gives the hotel broad appeal for shoppers, corporate travelers, wedding groups and weekend leisure guests, while supporting Crescent’s broader strategy of managing premium assets in high-demand markets.

Looking ahead, the property is well placed to benefit from steady regional travel and event demand, especially if luxury leisure bookings and corporate gatherings remain strong. The latest expansion reinforces the idea that well-located premium hotels in northern New Jersey can still command attention as important travel and hospitality landmarks.
