Iconic Luxury Hotels (ILH), the renowned hospitality brand responsible for prestigious hotels such as Excelsior Venice, Cliveden House and Mayfair Townhouse, will open Palm House Hotel in November. The Mizner-inspired hotel is steps away from the beach and the boutiques of Worth Avenue. Palm House boasts 79 rooms, including 21 magnificent suites. The room sizes are among the largest on the island, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, arched doorways and private terraces. The hotel also offers four outsized suites, including a Presidential Suite with a double-height living area that opens onto a balcony overlooking the pool deck.
“This marks a pivotal moment in the brand’s history as we announce our first Iconic Luxury Hotel in the United States,” says Andrew Stembridge, Executive Director of Iconic Luxury Hotels.
Established in December 2016, Iconic Luxury Hotels operates under L+R Hotels, a family-owned, worldwide hotel investment and management company that oversees a portfolio of more than 105 hotels with around 21,000 guestrooms. Each property boasts unique architecture, cultural positioning, character, traditions, and stories while maintaining a shared dedication to providing exceptional experiences.
“This is an exciting step for L+R Hotels as we continue to grow our Iconic Luxury Hotels portfolio internationally,” says Francisco Macedo, Senior Vice President of Iconic Luxury Hotels.
The current hotel portfolio for ILH includes some of the most renowned establishments worldwide. These range from Cliveden House, a prominent English country estate, to Italy’s Hotel Excelsior, the Venice International Film Festival venue. In the UK, the collection features Chewton Glen, an estate on the South Coast; The Lygon Arms, a 14th-century Coaching Inn in the Cotswolds; 11 Cadogan Gardens in Chelsea, located in one of London’s most prestigious residential neighborhoods; The Mayfair Townhouse, situated in the heart of the exclusive Mayfair district; and The Chelsea Townhouse, which opened in September 2023 just across the road from 11 Cadogan Gardens. Palm House is its first property in the U.S.
