Following a year of notable openings and the rebirth of two notable landmarks, luxury hotel company Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts continues its expansion in 2018, including additions to its global portfolio and a standalone residential project.
Since entering the luxury real estate business in 1985, the company’s portfolio of Four Seasons Private Residences has grown to include 38 properties in 17 countries — set to double in the next five years.
“Our singular focus is on luxury lifestyle, encompassing Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, and increasingly, Four Seasons Private Residences,” said J. Allen Smith, president and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. “For decades, Four Seasons has been synonymous with the highest standards of quality and service for luxury travelers, many of whom have now chosen to ultimately live at Four Seasons. We are now committing even greater resources to this priority.”
Four Seasons opened seven hotels and resorts last year, including in London at Ten Trinity Square, the port city of Tianjin, Tunisia and Megève.
In addition to Twenty Grosvenor Square, a Four Seasons Residence, there are several anticipated hotel and resort openings in 2018, with most featuring private residences, including a new hotel next to the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur. The company will open its second hotel in India along with private residences in Bengaluru, and its second resort in Seychelles on the secluded Desroches Island. Other destinations to receive a new or reinvented hotel include São Paulo and the Athenian Riviera, and the company will also return to Philadelphia with a new hotel in what will be the city’s tallest building.
