St. Regis Hotels & Resorts

St. Regis Hotels & Resorts is a global ultra-luxury hotel brand known for its refined service, elegant design, and strong connection to tradition. Originally founded in 1904 with the opening of The St. Regis New York, the brand has grown into a portfolio of more than 60 properties worldwide, operating as part of Marriott International’s luxury collection. Each hotel aims to reflect a sense of timeless sophistication, often blending classic architecture with contemporary luxury in major cities and resort destinations.

A defining feature of St. Regis is its emphasis on personalized, anticipatory service—especially its signature butler service, which is available at most properties to cater to guest needs around the clock. The brand is also known for its “rituals,” such as afternoon tea, evening champagne sabering, and the iconic Bloody Mary cocktail, which originated at The St. Regis New York. These traditions help create a distinctive guest experience that combines hospitality with a sense of ceremony and exclusivity.

Today, St. Regis properties are located in some of the world’s most desirable destinations, from cosmopolitan cities like New York, Florence, and Dubai to exotic resort locations such as the Maldives and Bora Bora. The brand is positioned at the top tier of luxury hospitality, often associated with high-end clientele seeking privacy, bespoke experiences, and elevated comfort in both urban and resort settings.

In 2025, Departure Lounge luxury travel advisors reserved more than $2.4 million in stays for its clients at St. Regis, making the agency one of the top producers for the brand. Departure Lounge clients are a high priority for complimentary St. Regis upgrades and VIP amenities, and our advisors’ relationships with on-property St. Regis execs results in truly customized stays that elevate the travel experience well beyond the typical.
