St. Regis' expanded footprint will span Africa, Asia, Europe and the Middle East and feature new construction as well as a magnificent and meticulous restoration of the Grand Hotel in Florence, which will open as The St. Regis Florence this fall. Offering St. Regis' signature bespoke services, luxury amenities, modern sophistication and refined elegance, these spectacular new hotels join the brand's distinguished portfolio as the best addresses around the world.

"This is an extraordinary time for St. Regis as we open ten new hotels and resorts, making it the most important year in the brand's history since John Jacob Astor first opened the St. Regis Hotel in New York City over a century ago - a legacy we are committed to honoring with our brand's signature hallmarks in the world's most exciting and diverse global destinations," said Paul James, Global Brand Leader, St. Regis Hotels & Resorts and The Luxury Collection. "Featuring exceptional custom-tailored guest experiences and services, each new property will further position St Regis as the luxury hotel brand of choice for today's global elite."
