Hilton "Owners" Rates?

On the Hilton site, for hotel properties I often see "owners" listed as a special rate option. What is this? Who/what does it apply to? The vast majority of these properties don't have owners to my knowledge, and even those that do, this is the hotel side portal?
 
I think those are Hilton employees?
 
It sounds like the owners of the hotel properties.
 
Wow. Lot of corporate speak.

According to AI, “The Hilton Owners Club is primarily for hotel investors with substantial ownership in Hilton-branded properties, not for typical hotel guests or timeshare purchasers. Membership requires being listed on the ownership structure with a minimum of a 1% ownership stake. It grants exclusive access to benefits like Hilton Honors Diamond status, team member travel privileges, and other perks for these valued partners”
 
corporate speak
? You got that from AI & everybody here keeps saying AI doesn't just regurgitate words. That is AI-speak. Get used to it. It will has taken over the world.
for hotel investors with substantial ownership in Hilton-branded properties ... requires being listed on the ownership structure with a minimum of a 1% ownership stake
Corporate speak? I hate corpospeak. That is far from it. That is straight-fwd to the point. You understand that, as 1Kflyer pointed out, Hilton doesn't actually own the physical hotel in N% of cases, where I imagine N is maybe 95% by now. I think most are franchises. I'd guess most are owned by REITs. but :shrug: maybe a decent amount of pvt equity. This "1%" thing may imply that most of the properties have multiple owners, as in not just 1 or 2.
