Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Basis of Presentation	Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (the "Parent," or together with its subsidiaries, "Hilton," "we," "us," "our" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is one of the largest hospitality companies in the world and is engaged in managing, franchising, owning and leasing hotels and resorts, including timeshare properties. As of March 31, 2017 , we managed, franchised, owned or leased 4,982 hotel and resort properties, totaling 812,341 rooms in 103 countries and territories. On March 15, 2017, HNA Tourism Group Co., Ltd. and certain of its affiliates (together, "HNA") acquired 82.5 million shares of Hilton common stock, representing approximately a 25.0 percent equity interest in the common stock of the Parent, from affiliates of The Blackstone Group L.P. ("Blackstone"). As of March 31, 2017 , HNA and affiliates of Blackstone beneficially owned approximately 25.0 percent and 15.2 percent of our common stock, respectively. Spin-offs On January 3, 2017, we completed the spin-offs of a portfolio of hotels and resorts, as well as our timeshare business, into two independent, publicly traded companies: Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. ("Park") and Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. ("HGV"), respectively, (the "spin-offs"). See Note 3: "Discontinued Operations" for additional information. Reverse Stock Split On January 3, 2017, we completed a 1-for-3 reverse stock split of Hilton's outstanding common stock (the "Reverse Stock Split"). The authorized number of shares of common stock was reduced from 30,000,000,000 to 10,000,000,000 , par value remained $0.01 per share and the authorized number of shares of preferred stock remained 3,000,000,000 . Stockholders entitled to fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split received a cash payment in lieu of receiving fractional shares. All share and share-related information presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted in all periods presented to reflect the decreased number of shares resulting from the Reverse Stock Split. The retroactive adjustments resulted in the reclassification of $7 million from common stock to additional paid-in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 have been prepared in accordance with United States of America ("U.S.") generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and are unaudited. We have condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Although we believe the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 . The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and, accordingly, ultimate results could differ from those estimates. Additionally, interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance. These condensed consolidated financial statements present the condensed consolidated financial position of Hilton as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 and the results of operations of Hilton for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 giving effect to the spin-offs, with the historical financial results of Park and HGV reflected as discontinued operations. Unless otherwise indicated, the information in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements refer only to Hilton's continuing operations and do not include discussion of balances or activity of Park or HGV. Principles of Consolidation In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Reclassifications Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the presentation following the spin-offs, which includes the reclassification of the financial position and results of operations of Park and HGV as discontinued operations as of December 31, 2016 and as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Additionally, certain line items in the condensed consolidated statements of operations have been revised to reflect the operating structure of Hilton subsequent to the spin-offs. The primary change to the condensed consolidated statements of operations is the disaggregation of management and franchise fee revenues.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Accounting Standards In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-04 ("ASU 2017-04"), Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . This ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2017-04 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2017. The adoption did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 ("ASU 2016-09"), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. We adopted ASU 2016-09 as of January 1, 2017. One of the provisions of this ASU requires entities to make an accounting policy election with respect to forfeitures of share-based payment awards, and we elected to account for forfeitures as they occur and adopted this provision of ASU 2016-09 using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of January 1, 2017 of approximately $1 million . Additionally, we have applied the provisions of this ASU on a retrospective basis in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, which includes presenting: (i) excess tax benefits as an operating activity, which were previously presented as a financing activity; and (ii) cash payments to tax authorities for employee taxes when shares are withheld to meet statutory withholding requirements as a financing activity, which were previously presented as an operating activity. Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 ("ASU 2016-02"), Leases (Topic 842) , which supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases in Leases (Topic 840) and generally requires all leases, including operating leases, to be recognized in the statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach and are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements, but we expect this ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheet. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 ("ASU 2014-09"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and requires entities to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Subsequent to ASU 2014-09, the FASB issued several related ASUs. The provisions of ASU 2014-09 and the related ASUs will be effective beginning January 1, 2018. This ASU permits two transition approaches: retrospective or modified retrospective. We are still evaluating our transition approach and expect to reach a decision in the second quarter of 2017. We anticipate that ASU 2014-09 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. However, we expect revenue recognition related to our accounting for ongoing royalty and management fee revenues, direct reimbursable fees from our management and franchise agreements and hotel guest transactions at our owned and leased hotels to remain substantially unchanged. While we are continuing to assess all other potential effects of the standard, we currently believe the provisions of ASU 2014-09 will affect revenue recognition as follows: (i) application and initiation fees for new hotels entering the system will be recognized over the term of the franchise agreement; (ii) certain contract acquisition costs related to our management and franchise agreements will be recognized over the term of the agreements as a reduction to revenue; and (iii) incentive management fees will be recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur as a result of future hotel profits or cash flows. We do not expect the changes in revenue recognition for certain contract acquisition costs or incentive management fees to affect the Company’s net income for any full year period. We are currently assessing the effect of the standard on indirect reimbursable fees related to our management and franchise agreements and the accounting for our guest loyalty program. We continue to update our assessment of the effect that ASU 2014-09 and related ASUs will have on our consolidated financial statements, and we will disclose further material effects, if any, when known.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
Discontinued Operations	Discontinued Operations On January 3, 2017, we completed the spin-offs of Park and HGV via a pro rata distribution to each of Hilton's stockholders of record, as of close of business on December 15, 2016, of 100 percent of the outstanding common stock of each of Park and HGV (the "Distribution"). Each Hilton stockholder received one share of Park common stock for every five shares of Hilton common stock and one share of HGV common stock for every ten shares of Hilton common stock. Following the spin-offs, Hilton did not retain any ownership interest in Park or HGV. Both Park and HGV have their common stock listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols "PK" and "HGV," respectively. In connection with the spin-offs, on January 2, 2017, Hilton entered into several agreements with Park and HGV that govern Hilton’s relationship with them following the Distribution, including the following: Distribution Agreement The Company entered into a Distribution Agreement with Park and HGV regarding the principal actions taken or to be taken in connection with the spin-offs. The Distribution Agreement provides for certain transfers of assets and assumptions of liabilities by each of Hilton, Park and HGV and the settlement or extinguishment of certain liabilities and other obligations among Hilton, Park and HGV. In addition to the allocation of assets and liabilities detailed in the Distribution Agreement, Hilton, Park and HGV have agreed that losses related to certain contingent liabilities (and related costs and expenses) that generally are not specifically attributable to any of the separated real estate business, the timeshare business or the retained business of Hilton will be apportioned among the parties according to fixed percentages: 65 percent , 26 percent and 9 percent for each of Hilton, Park and HGV, respectively. In addition, costs and expenses of, and indemnification obligations to, third-party professional advisors arising out of the foregoing actions also may be subject to these provisions. Subject to certain limitations and exceptions, Hilton shall generally be vested with the exclusive management and control of all matters pertaining to any such contingent liabilities, including the prosecution of any claim and the conduct of any defense. The Distribution Agreement also provides for cross-indemnities that, except as otherwise provided in the Distribution Agreement, are principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of each business with the appropriate company. Employee Matters Agreement The Company entered into an Employee Matters Agreement with Park and HGV that governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Hilton, Park and HGV after the spin-offs with respect to transferred employees, defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution plans, non-qualified retirement plans, employee health and welfare benefit plans, incentive plans, equity-based awards, collective bargaining agreements and other employment, compensation and benefits-related matters. Generally, other than with respect to certain specified compensation and benefit plans and liabilities, each of Park and HGV assumed or retained sponsorship of, and the liabilities relating to, compensation and benefit plans and employee-related liabilities relating to its current and former employees. Additionally, outstanding Hilton equity-based awards were equitably adjusted or converted into Park or HGV awards, as applicable, in connection with the spin-offs, and Park and HGV employees no longer actively participate in Hilton’s benefit plans or programs (other than specified compensation and benefit plans). Tax Matters Agreement The Company entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with Park and HGV that governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Hilton, Park and HGV after the spin-offs with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax contests and other tax sharing regarding U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes, other tax matters and related tax returns. Park and HGV each continue to have several liability with Hilton to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for the consolidated U.S. federal income taxes of the Hilton consolidated group relating to the taxable periods in which Park and HGV were part of that group. The Tax Matters Agreement specifies the portion, if any, of this tax liability for which Park and HGV will bear responsibility, and each party has agreed to indemnify the other two against any amounts for which they are not responsible. The Tax Matters Agreement also provides special rules for allocating tax liabilities in the event that the spin-offs are not tax-free. The Tax Matters Agreement also provides for certain covenants that may restrict Hilton, Park or HGV's ability to issue equity and pursue strategic or other transactions that otherwise could maximize the value of their businesses for two years after the spin-offs. These restrictions are generally inapplicable in the event that the IRS has granted a favorable ruling to Hilton, Park or HGV or in the event that Hilton, Park or HGV has received an opinion from a tax advisor that it can take such actions without adversely affecting the tax-free status of the spin-offs and related transactions. Transition Services Agreement The Company entered into a Transition Services Agreement (the "TSA") with Park and HGV under which Hilton or one of its affiliates will provide Park and HGV with certain services for a period of two years to help ensure an orderly transition following the Distribution. The services that Hilton agreed to provide under the TSA may include certain finance, information technology, human resources and compensation, facilities, legal and compliance and other services. The entity providing the services is compensated for any such services at agreed amounts as set forth in the TSA. HGV License Agreement The Company entered into a license agreement with HGV granting HGV the exclusive right, for an initial term of 100 years , to use certain Hilton marks and intellectual property in its timeshare business, subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement. HGV will pay a royalty fee of five percent of gross revenues, as defined, to Hilton quarterly in arrears, as well as specified additional fees. HGV also will pay Hilton an annual transition fee of $5 million for each of the first five years of the term and certain other fees and reimbursements. Additionally, during the term of the license agreement, HGV will participate in Hilton’s guest loyalty program, Hilton Honors. Tax Stockholders Agreement The Company entered into a stockholders agreement with HGV and certain entities affiliated with Blackstone intended to preserve the tax-free status of the Distribution. The Tax Stockholders Agreement provides for certain covenants that may limit issuances or repurchases of Hilton or HGV stock in excess of specified percentages, dispositions of Hilton or HGV common stock by Blackstone, and transfers of interests in certain Blackstone entities that directly or indirectly own Hilton, Park or HGV common stock. Additionally, the Tax Stockholders Agreement, which has a term of two years , may limit issuances or repurchases of stock by Hilton in excess of specified percentages. Management and Franchise Agreements The Company entered into management and franchise agreements with Park, whereby Park will pay agreed upon fees for various services that Hilton will provide to support the operations of their hotels, as well as royalty fees for the licensing of Hilton's hotel brands. The terms of the management agreements generally include a base management fee, calculated as three percent of gross hotel revenues or receipts, and an incentive management fee, calculated as six percent of a specified measure of hotel earnings that will be calculated in accordance with the applicable management agreement. Additionally, payroll and related costs, certain other operating costs, marketing expenses and other expenses associated with Hilton's brands and shared services will be directly reimbursed to Hilton by Park pursuant to the terms of the management and franchise agreements. Financial Information During the three months ended March 31, 2017, we recognized $39 million of management and franchise fees for properties that were transferred to Park upon completion of the spin-offs and $20 million of license fees from HGV. Prior to the spin-offs, the results of Park were reported in our ownership segment and the results of HGV were reported in our timeshare segment. Following the spin-offs, we do not have a timeshare segment, as we no longer have timeshare operations. The following table presents the assets and liabilities of Park and HGV that were included in discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016: (in millions) ASSETS Current Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 341 Restricted cash and cash equivalents 160 Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts 250 Prepaid expenses 48 Inventories 527 Current portion of financing receivables, net 136 Other 16 Total current assets of discontinued operations (variable interest entities - $92) 1,478 Intangibles and Other Assets: Goodwill 604 Management and franchise contracts, net 56 Other intangible assets, net 60 Property and equipment, net 8,589 Deferred income tax assets 35 Financing receivables, net 895 Investments in affiliates 81 Other 27 Total non-current assets of discontinued operations (variable interest entities - $405) 10,347 TOTAL ASSETS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS $ 11,825 LIABILITIES Current Liabilities: Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other $ 632 Current maturities of long-term debt 65 Current maturities of timeshare debt 73 Income taxes payable 4 Total current liabilities of discontinued operations (variable interest entities - $81) 774 Long-term debt 3,437 Timeshare debt 621 Deferred revenues 22 Deferred income tax liabilities 2,797 Other 17 TOTAL LIABILITIES OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS (variable interest entities - $506) $ 7,668 The following table presents the results of operations of Park and HGV that were included in discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 : (in millions) Revenues Franchise fees $ 10 Base and other management fees 7 Owned and leased hotels 648 Timeshare 326 Other revenues 3 Other revenues from managed and franchised properties 30 Total revenues from discontinued operations 1,024 Expenses Owned and leased hotels 449 Timeshare 217 Depreciation and amortization 77 General and administrative 10 Other expenses 2 Other expenses from managed and franchised properties 30 Total expenses from discontinued operations 785 Operating income from discontinued operations 239 Interest expense (49 ) Other non-operating income, net 4 Income from discontinued operations before income taxes 194 Income tax expense (75 ) Income from discontinued operations, net of taxes 119 Income from discontinued operations attributable to noncontrolling interests, net of taxes (2 ) Income from discontinued operations attributable to Hilton stockholders, net of taxes $ 117 The following table presents selected financial information of Park and HGV that was included in our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016 : (in millions) Non-cash items included in net income: Depreciation and amortization $ 77 Investing activities: Capital expenditures for property and equipment $ 68

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities	Consolidated Variable Interest Entities As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we consolidated three variable interest entities ("VIEs"): two entities that lease hotel properties and one management company. We are the primary beneficiaries of these consolidated VIEs as we have the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect their economic performance. Additionally, we have the obligation to absorb their losses and the right to receive benefits that could be significant to them. The assets of our VIEs are only available to settle the obligations of the respective entities. Our condensed consolidated balance sheets included the assets and liabilities of these entities, which primarily comprised the following: March 31, December 31, 2017 2016 (in millions) Cash and cash equivalents $ 55 $ 57 Accounts receivable, net 14 14 Property and equipment, net 55 52 Deferred income tax assets 61 58 Other non-current assets 56 53 Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other 34 33 Long-term debt 222 212 During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , we did not provide any financial or other support to any VIEs that we were not previously contractually required to provide, nor do we intend to provide such support in the future.

Interest on the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2027 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning in October 2017. The 2025 Senior Notes and the 2027 Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by us and certain of our wholly owned subsidiaries. We used the net proceeds of the 2025 Senior Notes and the 2027 Senior Notes, along with available cash, to redeem in full our $1.5 billion 5.625% Senior Notes due 2021 (the "2021 Senior Notes"), plus accrued and unpaid interest. In connection with the repayment, we paid a redemption premium of $42 million and accelerated the recognition of $18 million of unamortized debt issuance costs, which were included in loss on debt extinguishment in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. Senior Secured Credit Facility Our senior secured credit facility consists of a $1.0 billion senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") and a senior secured term loan facility (the "Term Loans"). In March 2017, we amended the Term Loans pursuant to which $750 million of outstanding Term Loans due in 2020 were extended, aligning their maturity with the $3,209 million tranche of Term Loans due 2023. Additionally, the entire balance of the Term Loans was repriced with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 200 basis points . In connection with the refinancing of the Term Loans, we incurred $3 million of debt issuance costs, which were included in other non-operating income, net, in our condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2017 , we had $23 million of letters of credit outstanding under our Revolving Credit Facility and a borrowing capacity of $977 million .

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , derivatives were used to hedge the interest rate risk associated with variable-rate debt, as well as foreign exchange risk associated with certain foreign currency denominated cash balances. Cash Flow Hedges During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , we entered into two interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $1.6 billion and $750 million , which swap one-month LIBOR on the Term Loans to fixed rates of 1.98 percent and 2.02 percent, respectively, and expire in March 2022. We elected to designate these interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Non-designated Hedges During the year ended December 31, 2016 , we dedesignated four interest rate swaps (the "2013 Interest Rate Swaps") that were previously designated as cash flow hedges as they no longer met the criteria for hedge accounting. These interest rate swaps, which had an aggregate notional amount of $1.45 billion and swapped three-month LIBOR on the Term Loans to a fixed rate of 1.87 percent, were settled during the three months ended March 31, 2017 . As of March 31, 2017 , we held 63 short-term foreign exchange forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $255 million to offset exposure to fluctuations in our foreign currency denominated cash balances. We elected not to designate these foreign exchange forwar d contracts as hedging instruments. Fair Value of Derivative Instruments The fair values of our derivative instruments in our condensed consolidated balance sheets were as follows: March 31, December 31, Balance Sheet Classification 2017 2016 (in millions) Cash Flow Hedges: Interest rate swaps Other liabilities $ 7 N/A Non-designated Hedges: Interest rate swaps Other liabilities — $ 12 Forward contracts Other current assets 1 3 Forward contracts Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other 1 4 Earnings Effect of Derivative Instruments The gains and losses recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income before any effect for income taxes were as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, Classification of Gain (Loss) Recognized 2017 2016 (in millions) Cash Flow Hedges: Interest rate swaps (1) Other comprehensive income $ (7 ) $ (10 ) Non-designated Hedges: Interest rate swaps Other non-operating income, net 2 N/A Interest rate swaps (2) Interest expense 3 N/A Forward contracts Loss on foreign currency transactions 1 1 ____________ (1) There were no amounts recognized in earnings related to hedge ineffectiveness or amounts excluded from hedge effectiveness testing during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 .

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements We did not elect the fair value measurement option for any of our financial assets or liabilities. The fair value of certain financial instruments and the hierarchy level we used to estimate fair values are shown below: March 31, 2017 Hierarchy Level Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Assets: Cash equivalents $ 580 $ — $ 580 $ — Restricted cash equivalents 12 — 12 — Liabilities: Long-term debt (1) 6,370 2,512 — 3,996 Interest rate swaps 7 — 7 — December 31, 2016 Hierarchy Level Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Assets: Cash equivalents $ 782 $ — $ 782 $ — Restricted cash equivalents 11 — 11 — Liabilities: Long-term debt (1) 6,369 2,516 — 4,006 Interest rate swaps 12 — 12 — ____________ (1) Carrying value includes unamortized deferred financing costs and discount. The carrying values and fair values exclude capital lease obligations and other debt. The fair values of financial instruments not included in this table are estimated to be equal to their carrying values as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . Our estimates of the fair values were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the estimated fair values. Cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents primarily consisted of short-term interest-bearing money market funds with maturities of less than 90 days and time deposits. The estimated fair values were based on available market pricing information of similar financial instruments. The estimated fair values of our Level 1 long-term debt were based on prices in active debt markets. The estimated fair values of our Level 3 long-term debt were based on indicative quotes received for similar issuances. We measure our interest rate swaps at fair value, which were estimated using an income approach. The primary inputs into our fair value estimate include interest rates and yield curves based on observable market inputs of similar instruments.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes	3 Months Ended

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes At the end of each quarter we estimate the effective income tax rate expected to be applied for the full year. The effective income tax rate is determined by the level and composition of pre-tax income or loss, which is subject to federal, foreign, state and local income taxes. Our total unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2017 were $174 million . We accrued approximately $33 million for the payment of interest and penalties as of March 31, 2017 . As a result of the expected resolution of examination issues with federal, state and foreign tax authorities, we believe it is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will decrease up to $8 million . Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2017 was $173 million associated with positions that, if favorably resolved, would provide a benefit to our effective income tax rate. In April 2014, we received 30-day Letters from the IRS and the Revenue Agents Report ("RAR") for the 2006 and October 2007 tax years. We disagreed with several of the proposed adjustments in the RAR, filed a formal appeals protest with the IRS and did not make any tax payments related to this audit. The issues being protested in appeals relate to assertions by the IRS that: (i) certain foreign currency denominated intercompany loans from our foreign subsidiaries to certain U.S. subsidiaries should be recharacterized as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes and constitute deemed dividends from such foreign subsidiaries to our U.S. subsidiaries; (ii) in calculating the amount of U.S. taxable income resulting from our Hilton Honors guest loyalty program, we should not reduce gross income by the estimated costs of future redemptions, but rather such costs would be deductible at the time the points are redeemed; and (iii) certain foreign currency denominated loans issued by one of our Luxembourg subsidiaries whose functional currency is U.S. dollar ("USD"), should instead be treated as issued by one of our Belgian subsidiaries whose functional currency is the euro, and thus foreign currency gains and losses with respect to such loans should have been measured in euros, instead of USD. Additionally, in January 2016, we received a 30-day Letter from the IRS and the RAR for the December 2007 through 2010 tax years. The RAR includes the proposed adju stments for tax years December 2007 through 2010, which reflect the carryover effect of the three protested issues from 2006 through October 2007. These proposed adjustments will also be protested in appeals and formal appeals protests have been submitted. In total, the proposed adjustments sought by the IRS would result in additional U.S. federal tax owed of approximately $874 million , excluding interest and penalties and potential state income taxes. The portion of this amount related to our Hilton Honors guest loyalty program would result in a decrease to our future tax liability when the points are redeemed. We disagree with the IRS's position on each of these assertions and intend to vigorously contest them. However, based on continuing appeals process discussions with the IRS, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will not recognize the full benefit related to certain of the issues being appealed. Accordingly, we have recorded $46 million of unrecognized tax benefits related to these issues. We file income tax returns, including returns for our subsidiaries, with federal, state and foreign jurisdictions. We are under regular and recurring audit by the IRS and other taxing authorities on open tax positions. The timing of the resolution of tax audits is highly uncertain, as are the amounts, if any, that may ultimately be paid upon such resolution. Changes may result from the conclusion of ongoing audits, appeals or litigation in state, local, federal and foreign tax jurisdictions or from the resolution of various proceedings between the U.S. and foreign tax authorities. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination for years through 2004. As of March 31, 2017 , we remain subject to federal examinations from 2005-2015, state examinations from 2003-2015 and foreign examinations of our income tax returns for the years 1996 through 2016. State income tax returns are generally subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective return; however, the state effect of any federal tax return changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period generally of up to one year after formal notification to the states. The statute of limitations for the foreign jurisdictions generally ranges from three to ten years after filing the respective tax return.

Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation We issue time-vesting restricted stock units and restricted stock ("RSUs"), nonqualified stock options ("options"), performance-vesting restricted stock units and restricted stock (collectively, "performance shares") and deferred share units ("DSUs"). We recognized share-based compensation expense of $25 million and $16 million during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, which included amounts reimbursed by hotel owners. As of March 31, 2017 , unrecognized compensation costs for unvested awards was approximately $171 million , which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years on a straight-line basis. As of March 31, 2017 , there were 29,922,923 shares of common stock available for future issuance. All share and share-related information have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. See Note 1 : " Organization and Basis of Presentation " for additional information. Effect of the Spin-offs on Equity Awards In connection with the spin-offs, the outstanding share-based compensation awards held by employees transferring to Park and HGV were converted to equity awards in Park and HGV stock, respectively. Share-based compensation awards of employees remaining at Hilton were adjusted using a conversion factor in accordance with the anti-dilution provisions of the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan with the intent to preserve the intrinsic value of the original awards (the "Conversion Factor"). The adjustments were determined by comparing the fair value of such awards immediately prior to the spin-offs to the fair value of such awards immediately after and resulted in no incremental compensation expense. Equity awards that were adjusted generally remain subject to the same vesting, expiration and other terms and conditions as applied to the awards immediately prior to the spin-offs. RSUs The following table summarizes the activity of our RSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2017 : Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Outstanding as of December 31, 2016 1,624,541 $ 65.24 Conversion from performance shares upon completion of the spin-offs (1) 671,604 72.42 Effect of the spin-offs 439,113 57.60 Granted 1,313,783 58.02 Vested (876,145 ) 47.19 Forfeited (47,971 ) 47.97 Outstanding as of March 31, 2017 (2) 3,124,925 52.01 ____________ (1) Represents all performance shares outstanding as of December 31, 2016. (2) The weighted average grant date fair value was adjusted to reflect the Conversion Factor. The RSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 generally vest in equal annual installments over two or three years from the date of grant. Options The following table summarizes the activity of our options during the three months ended March 31, 2017 : Number of Options Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share Outstanding as of December 31, 2016 1,076,031 $ 66.83 Effect of the spin-offs 251,145 57.60 Granted 710,967 58.02 Exercised (10,681 ) 45.35 Forfeited, canceled or expired (2,146 ) 57.99 Outstanding as of March 31, 2017 (1) 2,025,316 50.89 Exercisable as of March 31, 2017 (1) 793,005 48.23 ____________ (1) The weighted average exercise price was adjusted to reflect the Conversion Factor. The options granted during 2017 vest over three years from the date of grant and terminate 10 years from the date of grant or earlier if the individual’s service terminates under certain circumstances. The grant date fair value of the options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $ 13.86 , which was determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model with the following assumptions: Expected volatility (1) 24.00 % Dividend yield (2) 1.03 % Risk-free rate (3) 2.03 % Expected term (in years) (4) 6.0 ____________ (1) Due to limited trading history for our common stock, we did not have sufficient information available on which to base a reasonable and supportable estimate of the expected volatility of our share price. As a result, we used an average historical volatility of our peer group over a time period consistent with our expected term assumption. Our peer group was determined based upon companies in our industry with similar business models and is consistent with those used to benchmark our executive compensation. (2) Estimated based on the expected annualized dividend payment at the date of grant. (3) Based on the yields of U.S. Department of Treasury instruments with similar expected lives. (4) Estimated using the average of the vesting periods and the contractual term of the options. Performance Shares As of December 31, 2016, we had outstanding performance awards based on a measure of the Company’s total shareholder return relative to the total shareholder returns of members of a peer company group ("relative shareholder return") and based on the Company’s earnings before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") ("EBITDA CAGR"). Upon completion of the spin-offs, we converted all 671,604 outstanding performance shares to RSUs based on a 100 percent achievement percentage with the same vesting periods as the original awards, and as of March 31, 2017 , there were no outstanding performance shares based on relative shareholder return. During the three months ended March 31, 2017 , we issued performance shares with 50 percent of the shares subject to achievement based on the Company's free cash flow ("FCF") per share CAGR ("FCF CAGR") and the other 50 percent of the shares subject to achievement based on the Company’s EBITDA CAGR. The performance shares are settled at the end of the three-year performance period. We determined that the performance condition for these awards is probable of achievement and, as of March 31, 2017 , we recognized compensation expense based on the anticipated achievement percentage of 100 percent . The following table summarizes the activity of our performance shares during the three months ended March 31, 2017 : EBITDA CAGR FCF CAGR Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Number of Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share Outstanding as of December 31, 2016 335,802 $ 68.09 — N/A Conversion to RSUs upon completion of the spin-offs (335,802 ) 68.09 — N/A Granted 169,843 58.02 169,812 $ 58.02 Outstanding as of March 31, 2017 169,843 58.02 169,812 58.02

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 (in millions, except per share amounts) Basic EPS: Numerator: Net income from continuing operations attributable to Hilton stockholders $ 74 $ 192 Denominator: Weighted average shares outstanding 330 329 Basic EPS $ 0.22 $ 0.58 Diluted EPS: Numerator: Net income from continuing operations attributable to Hilton stockholders $ 74 $ 192 Denominator: Weighted average shares outstanding 331 330 Diluted EPS $ 0.22 $ 0.58 Approximately 1 million share-based compensation awards were excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted EPS for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive under the treasury stock method.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segments	Business Segments We are a diversified hospitality company with operations organized in two distinct operating segments, following the spin-offs: (i) management and franchise; and (ii) ownership. Each segment is managed separately because of its distinct economic characteristics. The management and franchise segment includes all of the hotels we manage for third-party owners, as well as all franchised hotels operated or managed by someone other than us. As of March 31, 2017 , this segment included 624 managed hotels and 4,236 franchised hotels totaling 4,860 hotels consisting of 781,978 rooms, within this total are the 67 hotels with 35,425 rooms that were previously owned or leased by Hilton or unconsolidated affiliates of Hilton and, upon completion of the spin-offs, were owned or leased by Park or unconsolidated affiliates of Park. This segment also earns fees for managing properties in our ownership segment and, effective upon completion of the spin-offs, a license fee from HGV for the exclusive right to use certain Hilton marks and intellectual property in its timeshare business. As of March 31, 2017 , the ownership segment included 74 properties totaling 22,278 rooms, comprising 65 hotels that we wholly owned or leas ed, one hot el owned by a consolidated non-wholly owned entity, two h otels leased by consolidated VIEs and six hotels owned or leased by unconsolidated affiliates. Prior to the spin-offs, the performance of our operating segments was evaluated primarily on Adjusted EBITDA. Following the spin-offs, the performance of our operating segments is evaluated primarily on operating income, without allocating corporate and other revenues and expenses or indirect general and administrative expenses, as we have simplified our operating segments and certain adjustments included in Adjusted EBITDA on a segment basis are no longer applicable. The following table presents revenues for our reportable segments, reconciled to consolidated amounts: Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 2016 (in millions) Management and franchise (1) $ 436 $ 357 Ownership 300 319 Segment revenues 736 676 Other revenues 37 17 Other revenues from managed and franchised properties 1,395 1,041 Intersegment fees elimination (1) (7 ) (8 ) Total revenues $ 2,161 $ 1,726 ____________ (1) Includes management, royalty and intellectual property fees charged to our ownership segment, which were eliminated in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure	Commitments and Contingencies As of March 31, 2017 , we had an outstanding guarantee of $5 million , with a remaining term of six years , for debt of a third party. We have one letter of credit for $5 million that has been pledged as collateral for the guarantee. Although we believe it is unlikely that material payments will be required under the guarantee or letter of credit, there can be no assurance that this will be the case. We have also provided performance guarantees to certain owners of hotels that we operate under management contracts. Most of these guarantees allow us to terminate the contract, rather than fund shortfalls, if specified performance levels are not achieved. However, in limited cases, we are obligated to fund performance shortfalls. As of March 31, 2017 , we had seven contracts containing performance guarantees, with expirations ranging from 2019 to 2030 , and possible cash outlays totaling approximately $70 million . Our obligations under these guarantees in future periods are dependent on the operating performance levels of these hotels over the remaining terms of the performance guarantees. We do not have any letters of credit pledged as collateral against these guarantees. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we recorded approximately $12 million and $11 million , respectively, in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other and approximately $15 million and $17 million , respectively, in other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets for two outstanding performance guarantees that are related to VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary. We have entered into an agreement with an affiliate of the owner of a hotel whereby we have agreed to provide a $60 million junior mezzanine loan to finance the construction of a new hotel that we will manage. The junior mezzanine loan is subordinated to a senior mortgage loan and senior mezzanine loan provided by third parties unaffiliated with us and will be funded on a pro rata basis with these loans as the construction costs are incurred. During each of the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , we funded $8 million of this commitment, and we currently expect to fund our remaining commitment of $1 million in 2017. We are involved in litigation arising in the normal course of business, some of which includes claims for substantial sums. While the ultimate results of claims and litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we expect that the ultimate resolution of all pending or threatened claims and litigation as of March 31, 2017 will not have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Condensed Consolidating Guarantor Financial Information [Abstract]
Condensed Consolidating Guarantor Financial Information	Condensed Consolidating Guarantor Financial Information In October 2013, Hilton Worldwide Finance LLC and Hilton Worldwide Finance Corp. (the "Subsidiary Issuers"), entities that are 100 percent owned by the Parent, issued the 2021 Senior Notes. In September 2016, Hilton Domestic Operating Company Inc., an entity formed in August 2016 that is 100 percent owned by Hilton Worldwide Finance LLC, assumed the 2024 Senior Notes that were issued in August 2016 by escrow issuers and is a guarantor of the 2021 Senior Notes, 2025 Senior Notes and 2027 Senior Notes. In March 2017, the Subsidiary Issuers issued the 2025 Senior Notes and 2027 Senior Notes, and we used the net proceeds and available cash to repay in full the 2021 Senior Notes. The 2024 Senior Notes, 2025 Senior Notes and 2027 Senior Notes are collectively referred to as the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes are guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior unsecured basis by the Parent and certain of the Parent's 100 percent owned domestic restricted subsidiaries that are themselves not issuers of the applicable series of Senior Notes (together, the "Guarantors"). The indentures that govern the Senior Notes provide that any subsidiary of the Company that provides a guarantee of the Senior Secured Credit Facility will guarantee the Senior Notes. As of March 31, 2017 , none of our foreign subsidiaries or U.S. subsidiaries owned by foreign subsidiaries or conducting foreign operations or our non-wholly owned subsidiaries guarantee the Senior Notes (collectively, the "Non-Guarantors"). In connection with the spin-offs, certain entities that were previously guarantors of the 2021 Senior Notes and 2024 Senior Notes were released and no longer guaranteed these senior notes. The condensed consolidating financial information presents the financial information based on the composition of the Guarantors and Non-Guarantors as of March 31, 2017 . The guarantees are full and unconditional, subject to certain customary release provisions. The indentures that govern the Senior Notes provide that any Guarantor may be released from its guarantee so long as: (i) the subsidiary is sold or sells all of its assets; (ii) the subsidiary is released from its guaranty under the Senior Secured Credit Facility; (iii) the subsidiary is declared "unrestricted" for covenant purposes; (iv) the subsidiary is merged with or into the applicable Subsidiary Issuers or another Guarantor or the Guarantor liquidates after transferring all of its assets to the applicable Subsidiary Issuers or another Guarantor; or (v) the requirements for legal defeasance or covenant defeasance or to discharge the indenture have been satisfied, in each case in compliance with applicable provisions of the indentures. The following schedules present the condensed consolidating financial information as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 , for the Parent, Subsidiary Issuers, Guarantors and Non-Guarantors.

New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Abstract]
ASU 2017-04 Goodwill Impairment	In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2017-04 ("ASU 2017-04"), Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment . This ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. We elected, as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2017-04 on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2017. The adoption did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-09 Stock Compensation	In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09 ("ASU 2016-09"), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures and statutory withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. We adopted ASU 2016-09 as of January 1, 2017. One of the provisions of this ASU requires entities to make an accounting policy election with respect to forfeitures of share-based payment awards, and we elected to account for forfeitures as they occur and adopted this provision of ASU 2016-09 using a modified retrospective approach by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of January 1, 2017 of approximately $1 million . Additionally, we have applied the provisions of this ASU on a retrospective basis in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, which includes presenting: (i) excess tax benefits as an operating activity, which were previously presented as a financing activity; and (ii) cash payments to tax authorities for employee taxes when shares are withheld to meet statutory withholding requirements as a financing activity, which were previously presented as an operating activity.
ASU 2016-02 Leases	In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02 ("ASU 2016-02"), Leases (Topic 842) , which supersedes existing guidance on accounting for leases in Leases (Topic 840) and generally requires all leases, including operating leases, to be recognized in the statement of financial position as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees. The provisions of ASU 2016-02 are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach and are effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements, but we expect this ASU to have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheet.
ASU 2014-09 and Related ASUs Revenue Recognition	In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 ("ASU 2014-09"), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) . This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) and requires entities to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Subsequent to ASU 2014-09, the FASB issued several related ASUs. The provisions of ASU 2014-09 and the related ASUs will be effective beginning January 1, 2018. This ASU permits two transition approaches: retrospective or modified retrospective. We are still evaluating our transition approach and expect to reach a decision in the second quarter of 2017. We anticipate that ASU 2014-09 will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. However, we expect revenue recognition related to our accounting for ongoing royalty and management fee revenues, direct reimbursable fees from our management and franchise agreements and hotel guest transactions at our owned and leased hotels to remain substantially unchanged. While we are continuing to assess all other potential effects of the standard, we currently believe the provisions of ASU 2014-09 will affect revenue recognition as follows: (i) application and initiation fees for new hotels entering the system will be recognized over the term of the franchise agreement; (ii) certain contract acquisition costs related to our management and franchise agreements will be recognized over the term of the agreements as a reduction to revenue; and (iii) incentive management fees will be recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal will not occur as a result of future hotel profits or cash flows. We do not expect the changes in revenue recognition for certain contract acquisition costs or incentive management fees to affect the Company’s net income for any full year period. We are currently assessing the effect of the standard on indirect reimbursable fees related to our management and franchise agreements and the accounting for our guest loyalty program. We continue to update our assessment of the effect that ASU 2014-09 and related ASUs will have on our consolidated financial statements, and we will disclose further material effects, if any, when known.
