Dear Mr. Walters,

I am writing to inform you that I have decided to accept another job offer and, therefore, must respectfully decline the opportunity to join Hilton Corporation as an Assistant Manager. This decision was not easy, as I greatly appreciate your consideration and the time invested in my application. Ultimately, I received an offer that aligns more closely with my current career goals and personal circumstances, particularly regarding schedule flexibility and growth opportunities.

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the opportunity to interview with Hilton Corporation. Your organization’s reputation and the professionalism displayed throughout the process have left a very positive impression on me. While I am unable to accept the position at this time, I will keep Hilton in mind for future professional endeavors and will gladly recommend qualified friends or colleagues who might be a good fit for your team.

If you have any questions or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me at (555) 123-4567 or via email at [your.email@example.com]. Thank you again for your understanding and for considering my application. I wish Hilton continued success in all its future endeavors.
