Luxe Collection Adds New Hotels to Portfolio and Brings First Luxe Hotel to NYC

LOS ANGELES, March 10, 2020 (Newswire.com) - ​​​​​​​Global hospitality brand Luxe Collection is kicking off 2020 with significant expansion, including Luxe Hotels’ first branded property in New York City, the historic and highly acclaimed Luxe Life Hotel New York. Five additional hotels will join Luxe Collection’s portfolio of boutique 4- and 5-star properties this quarter, including Eurostars Magnificent Mile (Chicago), The Belmont (Dallas), Il Tornabuoni (Florence), CoolRooms Atocha (Madrid), and Zeavola Resort (Koh Phi Phi, Thailand).

“At Luxe Collection, it is our mission to bring exceptional hotels with personalized service and unmatched guest experiences, as well as value and comfort. The new additions to our family embody all of the qualities we look for: location, history, service, owner involvement, and amenities,” said Luxe Hotels and Luxe Collection Chairman and CEO Efrem Harkham. “Our team of seasoned hospitality professionals are eager to lend Luxe Collection’s expertise and support to these already exceptional properties.” 

“We were drawn to Luxe Collection because of their customizable services and adept understanding of our target audience,” said Patricia Ortiz, Head of Business Development for CoolRooms Atocha. “We’re thrilled to be working with such a passionate team of hospitality experts and among some of the most incredible boutique hotels around the world.”

In addition to growing the Luxe Collection portfolio, Luxe Hotels’ flagship in Beverly Hills, Luxe Rodeo Drive Hotel, is undergoing a multimillion-dollar renovation. The new look is sophisticated and crisp, relaxed and modern. The guestroom interiors are evocative of an elegant residence with their mix of warm wood finishes, soft lighting, refined metals, and lux fabrics. The neutral palette of the rooms extends into the bathrooms with custom-designed wallpaper, brass accent light fixtures, and natural stone countertops. With the addition of two new penthouse suites located on the rooftop, the renovation will bring a completely different look and elegant feel to the Rodeo Drive property.

The Rose Garden Palace in Rome officially rebranded as The Luxe Rose Garden Hotel, becoming the first hotel in Europe to carry the Luxe name. “We are proud to bring the Luxe Hotel brand to New York, to have a location in the heart of Rome, and to further enhance our Flagship hotel in Beverly Hills, which is the only hotel located on the famed Rodeo Drive,” said Harkham.
