Following the sale, Mr. Hilton continues to share voting power through the

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND
   EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS THE
      SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES
      COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS
            SUPPLEMENT OR THE ACCOMPANYING PROSPECTUS. ANY
                REPRESEN   TATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL

other national securities exchanges on which the Common Stock is traded, in the
over-the-counter market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at market
prices prevailing at the time of the sale, at prices related to such prevailing
market prices or at negotiated prices, subject to prior sale, when, as and if
delivered to and accepted by the Underwriter. See "The Underwriter."
 
    The Company and the Selling Stockholder have agreed to indemnify the
Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the

                                THE UNDERWRITER
 
    Under the terms and subject to the conditions contained in a Purchase
Agreement dated the date hereof (the "Purchase Agreement"), Donaldson, Lufkin &
Jenrette Securities Corporation (the "Underwriter") has agreed to purchase, and
the Selling Stockholder has agreed to sell to the Underwriter, the Shares at the
price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus Supplement.
 
    The Purchase Agreement provides that the obligation of the Underwriter to
pay for and accept delivery of the Shares is subject to the approval of certain
legal matters by its counsel and to certain other conditions. The Underwriter is
obligated to take and pay for all the Shares if any are taken.
 
    The Shares may be sold by the Underwriter from time to time to purchasers in
one or more transactions (which may involve block transactions) on the NYSE or
on other national securities exchanges on which the Common Stock is traded, in
the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, in a combination of
such methods or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at
prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. If the
price received by the Underwriter upon the sale of the Shares exceeds the price
at which it buys the Shares (set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus
Supplement), such difference shall represent the Underwriter's commission. The
Underwriter may effect such transactions by selling Shares to or through
dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts,
concessions or commissions from the Underwriter and/or the purchasers of such
Shares for whom they may act as agents or to whom they may sell as principal.
 
    The Company and the Selling Stockholder have agreed to indemnify the
Underwriter against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act, or contribute to payments which the Underwriter may be required
to make in respect thereof.

Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus relate will be passed upon

(1) Barron Hilton, the Company's Chairman of the Board, is the sole trustee of
    the Selling Stockholder and is deemed to have beneficial ownership of the
    Shares. The Shares represent approximately 9.7% of the Company's outstanding
    Common Stock and constitute the entire holdings of the Trust. The Trust
    expects to reinvest any net proceeds from the sale of any Shares. Mr. Hilton
    is entitled to 60% of the Trust's annual income and the Conrad W. Hilton
    Foundation, a California charitable corporation of which Mr. Hilton is one
    of 11 directors (the "Foundation"), is entitled to the remaining 40%. The
    principal of the Trust will be distributed to the Foundation upon Mr.
    Hilton's death, but not before the Trust's 20th anniversary in 2009. The
    Foundation currently owns approximately 16.5 million shares of Common Stock,
    or approximately 6.7% of the outstanding Common Stock. Mr. Hilton is the
    record and beneficial owner in his individual capacity of approximately 22.9
    million shares, or approximately 9.3% of the outstanding Common Stock; such
    shares are not a part of this Prospectus.
 
    Pursuant to an agreement between the Company and the Selling Stockholder
(the "Registration Agreement"), the Company has agreed to file the Registration
Statement to register the potential resale of the Shares by the Selling
Stockholder.
 
                              PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
    Sales of the Shares may be made from time to time by the Selling Stockholder
in one or more transactions on The New York Stock Exchange, the Pacific Exchange
or any other national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded
(which, subject to applicable law, may involve transactions solely between a
broker-dealer and its customers which are not traded across an open market and
block trades), in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated
transactions or otherwise or in any combination of such transactions at market
prices then prevailing, at prices related to the then current market price, at
negotiated prices or at fixed prices. In addition, any Shares covered by this
Prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Section 4(1) of the Securities Act
or Rule 144 promulgated thereunder may be sold under such provisions rather than
pursuant to this Prospectus. The Shares may be offered in any manner permitted
by law, including through underwriters, brokers, dealers or agents, and directly
to one or more purchasers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Shares may be sold in one or more of the following types of transactions: (a)
sales to underwriters who will acquire the Shares for their own account and
resell them in one or more transactions at fixed prices or at varying prices
determined at the time of sale; (b) a block trade in which the broker-dealer so
engaged will attempt to sell the Shares as agent but may position and resell a
portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; (c) purchases
by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its
account; (d) ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the
broker solicits purchasers; (e) an exchange distribution in accordance with the
rules of such exchange; and (f) transactions between sellers and purchasers
without a broker-dealer. In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the
Selling Stockholder may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in
the resales.
 
    Brokers, dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of
commissions, underwriting discounts or concessions from the Selling Stockholder
in amounts to be negotiated in connection with the sale. Such brokers or dealers
and any other participating brokers or dealers may be deemed to be
"underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such
sales and any such commission, discount or concession may be deemed to be
underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.

    In the event the Selling Stockholder engages an underwriter in connection
with the sale of the Shares, to the extent required, a Prospectus Supplement
will be distributed, which will set forth the number of shares being offered and
the terms of the offering, including the names of the underwriters, any
discounts, commissions and other items constituting compensation to
underwriters, dealers or agents, the public offering price and any discounts,
commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid by underwriters to
dealers.
 
    Pursuant to the Registration Agreement, the Company has agreed to keep the
Registration Statement effective for the sale of Shares for a period of one
year, subject to extension if the Selling Stockholder is required to suspend
sales of the Shares offered hereunder or if the Company shall otherwise agree to
extend the effectiveness period. All costs, expenses and fees in connection with
the registration and sale of the Shares offered hereby shall be borne by the
Selling Stockholder. Commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to the sale
of Shares hereunder will be borne by the Selling Stockholder. The Selling
Stockholder and the Company have agreed to indemnify each other against certain
civil liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
    Certain persons participating in the distribution of the Shares offered
hereby may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the Common Stock.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
    The validity of the Shares offered hereby will be passed upon for the
Company by Cheryl L. Marsh, Vice President and Corporate Secretary of the
Company.
