Visiting Acadia National Park, located on Mount Desert Island off the coast of Maine, has been at the top of my dream destination list for years. It's also one of the busiest national parks in the country, with nearly 4 million visitors last year.
What you need to know about Hilton’s new lifestyle brand Tempo
30.09.2023 - 14:13 / thepointsguy.com
With major hotel companies announcing new brands left and right, it's hard to keep up with all of them. But of all the announcements coming out in the last few years, few have been as exciting as Hilton's new Tempo by Hilton, designed to cater to "active, ambitious travelers."
Last month, the very first Tempo hotel opened in New York's flashy and fast-paced Times Square, and there are more than 35 others in development.
Whether you're a Hilton Honors loyalist or one of those ambitious lifestyle travelers the hotel is designed to serve, here's a quick look at the brand and its first property to help you decide if it's worth a stay.
Tempo by Hilton is a new lifestyle brand with one property open in New York City called Tempo by Hilton New York Times Square; dozens more are in the pipeline. While lifestyle brands are a dime a dozen these days, it seems like Hilton really worked to make this brand something special for its targeted guests, putting a special emphasis on smart room design, wellness, food and drink, location and more.
As we shared in our guide to every Hilton brand, Hilton pitches the brand to investors like this:
Or, as we translated it, "These hotels are meant to feature a midcentury modern style — so travelers can feel like they're sleeping in a West Elm catalog."
For the Tempo by Hilton, wellness is front and center, and this is demonstrated in several ways, starting in the rooms. All rooms feature different zones designed for different parts of the day. The "Power Down" amenities help you fall and stay asleep, while the "Power Up" amenities in the "Get Ready Zone" help you wake up fresh to get your day going.
These areas include different lighting options that adjust with guests throughout the day: bright lights to help you get ready and soothing, dim lights to help you relax. There are also a functional desk for working, a closet space and an oversized bath suite featuring mirrors with built-in Bluetooth speakers.
For a really special room experience in New York, consider booking one of the Ball Drop Rooms with clear views of both the famous Ball Drop in Times Square on New Year's Eve and the celebrity-filled entertainment down on the street below.
According to Hilton, each Tempo property will have wellness-focused amenities to help guests stay balanced while traveling. At the Tempo by Hilton New York Times Square, that might mean booking one of the hotel's nine wellness rooms.
Wellness rooms include a Peloton bike so you can get your spin on overlooking the lights of Times Square, as well as a Peloton yoga mat and resistance bands. A Therabody Theragun Elite and Wave Roller help you work out the kinks after a busy day exploring New York City or working out with the in-room equipment.

TSA PreCheck, Global Entry, and Clear: What’s the Difference?
No one enjoys wasting their time in long airport lines—especially when there’s an exciting vacation at the other end. Fortunately, there are programs like TSA PreCheck, Global Entry, and Clear that can save travelers valuable time and hassle at the airport. Before takeoff, TSA PreCheck and Clear allow travelers to go through the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) security lines faster. After landing, Global Entry speeds up checks at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) international checkpoints. All three have their own designated lanes, if they’re available at the airport.
