Nestled in the heart of Wilmington, Delaware and the picturesque Brandywine Valley, this twelve-story, 217-room hotel was commissioned by DuPont Company president Pierre S. du Pont and debuted in 1913. After opening, the hotel instantly earned international fame, rivaling the finest hotels in New York City and became the social epicenter for the Wilmington elite. The hotel remains committed to retaining the warmth and splendor that have made it so highly regarded for over a century, while anticipating the sophisticated expectations of today’s modern traveler.

Recognized by U.S. News & World Report AND Conde Nast Traveler and Travel + Leisure as the #1 hotel in Delaware, the hotel is redefining hospitality imbued with a relaxed, contemporary sensibility. The 12-story Italian Renaissance landmark building is a modern masterpiece, offering the best of both old and new Wilmington. Featuring the ultra-romantic Gold Ballroom, an award-winning modern restaurant inspired by France’s brasseries, and thoughtfully renovated spaces that infuse the building’s architecture and history with a fresh attitude, the hotel embodies the city of Wilmington’s notable transformation.

The HOTEL DUPONT has been under ongoing renovations since 2017 as PM Hotel Group blends approachable luxury with timeless elegance. Christina River Exchange is proud to be the procurement partner for the HOTEL DUPONT for these renovations, include the 217 guest rooms, meeting space and lobby, hallway corridors, and the lobby bar and restaurant.
