Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group launches Quorvus Collection

Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group launches Quorvus Collection Symphony Style Hotel Kuwait will be among the first members of the Quorvus Collection

Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group has the first member hotels of Quorvus Collection: The Symphony Style Hotel Kuwait, The May Fair Hotel London, and the G&V Royal Mile Hotel Edinburgh.

Wolfgang Neumann, president, Rezidor Hotel Group, announced: “We are delighted to welcome three iconic hotels to Quorvus Collection, our latest luxury brand.”

He added: “Each property has its own unique style, personality and heritage with one essential factor at the core – a five-star luxury hotel experience.”

The Quorvus Collection name originates from the Southern sky Corvus constellation featuring the five brightest stars.

“It is a new generation of expertly curated luxury hotels inspired by the lifestyle and sensibilities of the contemporary global traveller.

“Member hotels are historic landmarks, contemporary residences, classic boutiques and urban retreats – all different in scale, architecture, ambiance and design, yet committed to the same, unparalleled service philosophy.

“Quorvus Collection has a luxury lifestyle value proposition based on a signature suite of hallmark services.

“The holistic ‘Q24’ concept targets both body and mind, and focuses on six core elements: wellness, replenishment, style, inspiration, entertainment, and connectivity.”

The Symphony Style Hotel Kuwait is part of the Symphony complex in Salmiya, the main shopping and entertainment district of Kuwait City.

At 18 floors high, the hotel has 169 rooms and suites and offers breathtaking views on the Arabian Gulf.

The bold, beautiful interior designed by Rosita Missoni echoes the colours of desert and sea: gold, sand and turquoise.

All rooms have state-of-the art technology including free high speed internet access.

The May Fair Hotel London, owned and operated by Edwardian Group London, is an icon of expressive contemporary design and brings together boutique attention to detail with grand hotel service.

The spirit of surrounding Mayfair is captured beautifully, for example in the May Fair Bar which has played host to some of London’s most extravagant society events and serves over 40 decadent cocktails including the signature May Fair Mojito.

A legendary hotel with a glamorous past, The May Fair Hotel was first opened by King George V in 1927, and offers 404 spacious bedrooms including twelve of the most memorable prestigious suites in the capital.

Home to fashion and film, The May Fair Theatre is the epitome of luxury with a 201 seated private screening room, whilst the May Fair spa is an urban retreat utterly discreet and wonderfully indulgent.

Iype Abraham, commercial development director of Edwardian Group, said: “As a luxury lifestyle hotel in the heart of London, The May Fair is a historic building with a modern design.

“We are delighted to be a member of the Quorvus Collection and look forward to further enhancing our guest experience”.

The G&V Royal Mile Hotel Edinburgh, a reminder of George & Victoria, gives a proud nod to the area’s Royal heritage and enjoys an enviable location in the heart of Edinburgh at the corner of George IV Bridge, Victoria Street and The Royal Mile.

Each of the 136 rooms and suites show designer Rosita Missoni’s aesthetic look and dynamic use of colours and patterns; combined with latest technology and free high speed internet access.

“These three unique hotels lay a strong foundation for the further development of Quorvus Collection.

“The Edinburgh and Kuwait hotels will join the Quorvus Collection immediately, and we anticipate The May Far joining the collection later in the summer of 2014.

“We aim to grow a global portfolio of 20 hotels in operation and under development by 2020 through conversions and newly built urban hotels and resorts,” added Neumann.

Quorvus Collection is the latest brand created by the Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group to cover the luxury hotel segment.
