    >Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials cried foul after Hilton Hotels refused service to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

    >The department expressed outrage in a Monday post on X.

    >”NO ROOM AT THE INN!” the post exclaimed. “@HiltonHotels has launched a coordinated campaign in Minneapolis to REFUSE service to DHS law enforcement.”

    >”When officers attempted to book rooms using official government emails and rates, Hilton Hotels maliciously CANCELLED their reservations,” the statement continued. “This is UNACCEPTABLE. Why is Hilton Hotels siding with murderers and rapists to deliberately undermine and impede DHS law enforcement from their mission to enforce our nation’s immigration laws?”

    >Hotels generally have the right to refuse service to customers. Emails from DHS confirmed Hilton management’s decision.

    >”After further investigation online, we have found information about immigration work connected with your name and we will be cancelling your upcoming reservation. You should see a proper cancellation email in your inbox shortly from Hilton,” one email said.

  2. What, the local flophouse not good enough for them? Wasn’t Motel 6 all gung-ho to help ice, reserve with them. Why do these idiots suddenly need such expensive accommodations?

  3. *The Third Amendment (Amendment III) to the United States Constitution places restrictions on the quartering of soldiers in private homes without the owner’s consent, forbidding the practice in peacetime.*

    Hotels rely on immigrant labor for their existence….should not be a surprise that hotel owners <Hilton properties are virtually all franchises> are not a fan of DHS.

    Hyatt and Pritzker….? Doubt DHS has even once thought about staying there. But then again….?

  6. Hmmmm. Just like you can refuse to bake a cupcake because the customer does not meet your moral standards.

    I don’t know if it is a coordinated strike so much as they aren’t willing to house criminals

  8. I book 50+ room nights a year traveling for work. Always used IHG, switching to Hilton as of today.

    Decades ago a late-night flight I had booked out of DC was cancelled due to weather. This announcement came after every other airline had already cancelled. All the food vendors were already closed. There wasn’t a hotel room to be found and the airline rep basically said “oh, well … good luck”. About an hour later 100+ angry, hungry, and tired people were trying to make do when the nearby Hilton staff showed up with all the leftover buffet items and a ton of desserts, plus blankets and pillows. No charge, just being neighborly. Ever since then I have held Hilton in pretty high regards and booked them whenever possible on all my business trips.

    She always looks angry and she’s always throwing a tantrum. Maybe one day her heart will actually explode. All that anger can’t be good for you.
