The New Wave of Luxury Hotel Brands
Another Collab? Nowadays, crossovers and collaborations seem all the rage in the luxury world. High-end brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Hermès have collaborated with automakers to create bespoke vehicles that are as much about style as they are about performance. But as these synergies continue to unfold, one can’t help but wonder: what if the next great collaboration came not from the runway, but from the opulent lobbies and suites of the world’s most luxurious hotels?
Luxury hotel brands such as Four Seasons, The Ritz-Carlton, and Aman have long been synonymous with exceptional service, meticulous attention to detail, and environments that offer an unparalleled level of comfort and sophistication. These luxury hotel brands have already made inroads into the automotive world—consider The Ritz-Carlton’s partnership with Mercedes-Benz, offering guests access to luxury cars during their stay, or the Four Seasons’ use of Rolls-Royce as the “house car” at select locations.
Notably, in 2013, The Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris unveiled the world’s only Hermès-inspired Rolls-Royce Phantom, showcasing a bespoke design that blended the craftsmanship of Hermès with the luxury of Rolls-Royce, creating a unique offering for its guests. This collaboration, while singular, highlighted the potential for deeper connections between luxury hotels and the automotive world.
As this intersection between automotive luxury and hospitality deepens, we are also witnessing the rise of automotive-branded residences, such as Bentley Residences in Miami and the Porsche Design Tower. These developments bring the precision, craftsmanship, and prestige of luxury car brands into the living spaces of the affluent, offering amenities like the Bentley Residencs in Miami’s ‘Dezervator,’ a car elevator that allows residents to park their vehicles directly next to their living rooms. This integration of automotive design into real estate hints at a broader trend: the blending of luxury car culture with high-end living.
So, what if this principle were extended even further? Just as fashion brands have successfully made the leap into automotive design, luxury hotel brands could infuse their vehicles with the qualities that make their properties so beloved: elegance, comfort, and an unwavering commitment to service.
Imagine stepping into a Bentley designed in collaboration with Four Seasons. The interior might boast hand-stitched leather seats that mirror the plush comfort of a Four Seasons suite, complete with custom upholstery in a palette that reflects the brand’s timeless elegance. A built-in champagne cooler and a personalized concierge service could be at your fingertips, ensuring that every journey is as luxurious as your stay.
Or consider an Aman x Tesla partnership, where minimalism meets innovation. The vehicle could feature a sleek, Zen-like interior, designed to create a serene driving experience. Advanced wellness features, such as air purification systems and ambient lighting, could make each drive feel like a retreat, embodying Aman’s commitment to tranquility and sustainability.
The Ritz-Carlton might pair with Rolls-Royce to create a car that echoes the timeless sophistication of their hotel suites. Imagine rich wood paneling, luxurious leather, and a level of craftsmanship that turns every drive into an experience of refined luxury.
These branded cars wouldn’t just be about getting from point A to point B; they would be an integral part of the lifestyle that these luxury hotel brands promote.

The same attention to detail that goes into designing luxury residences could translate into automotive design, offering consumers not just a car, but an extension of their lifestyle.
