Everything You Need To Know About Tribute Portfolio
Since Tribute Portfolio is a soft brand, each property is allowed to retain a significant amount of its individual character. That means each hotel or resort offers a unique experience — the thing that unites them all is a common spirit.
Elements of this spirit include striking design moments, bold use of color, noteworthy art installations, and more. Each property strives to create spaces that bring others together and curate experiences that connect you to the local community.
Tribute Portfolio’s target competitors are the Curio Collection by Hilton, Preferred Hotels and Resorts, Leading Hotels of the World, and the Independent Collection.
In general, The Luxury Collection is thought of as being the most luxurious boutique brand. The Autograph Collection follows closely after as a luxury/upper-upscale brand. Then, Tribute Portfolio is the upscale/upper-upscale brand just after the Autograph Collection.
