Venues on this list

Kilkea Castle
Castledermot, Ireland
Kilkea Castle is a strong choice for families and mixed-age groups who want an Irish castle stay with a country-estate rhythm rather than a formal, adults-first retreat. Cross-shop Ballyfin for higher ceremony, The K Club for resort energy, Cliff at Lyons for a smaller polished escape.

Fox Harb’r Resort
Fox Harbour, Canada
Book Fox Harb'r Resort for a special-occasion coastal stay where privacy, space, a resort setting matter more than city access. It is less convincing as a quick overnight base, but stronger for couples, family gatherings, retreats built around staying put.

The Leela Ambience Gurugram Hotel & Residences
Gurugram Gurgaon, India
Choose The Leela Ambience Gurugram Hotel & Residences if Gurgaon access, full-service infrastructure, Ambience Island convenience matter more than a secluded resort feel. It is strongest for business travelers, longer stays, families who want predictable logistics, with recent recognition from Preferred Hotels L.V.X. Collection and MICHELIN Guide Hotels Selected adding useful confidence.

The Guardsman
London, United Kingdom
The Guardsman is a strong Westminster pick for travellers who want a discreet, polished base rather than a large hotel scene. It is better suited to special occasions and business stays built around central London access than to trips where dining, pool, or spa facilities are the main reason to book.

Garza Blanca Resort & Spa Cancun a Tafer Resort
Cancún, Mexico
Garza Blanca Resort & Spa Cancun a Tafer Resort is a better fit for suite-led celebrations, family trips, travelers who want a resort-contained stay near Punta Sam. Book it for space and easy planning; cross-shop adults-only or wellness-focused peers if the room is less important than atmosphere or programming.

AJWA Sultanahmet
Istanbul, Turkey
AJWA Sultanahmet is a strong old-city pick if hotel quality matters as much as location. Its 2025 Michelin 1 Key and Preferred Hotels L.V.X. recognition make it a safer bet than many smaller Sultanahmet options, but dining should be treated as a convenient benefit rather than the main reason to book.

SoHo Hotel Toronto
Toronto, Canada
SoHo Hotel Toronto is a sensible downtown pick for travellers who want the Entertainment District without choosing a party-first hotel. Book it when rates undercut Toronto's higher-service luxury options; compare The Ritz-Carlton for a bigger splurge, Bisha for more scene, Le Germain Hotel Toronto Mercer for another polished nearby alternative.

Pendry Park City
Park City, United States
Pendry Park City is a strong Park City choice for a polished special-occasion stay on the Canyons side, especially if you can book through a luxury advisor or preferred-partner channel. The Michelin 1 Key and Preferred Hotels/Virtuoso recognition support the splurge, but travelers who want Main Street convenience or a lower-friction points stay should compare nearby alternatives first.

Locanda Rossa
Capalbio, Italy
Locanda Rossa is a strong Capalbio pick if the priority is a polished countryside hotel rather than a restaurant-first trip. Its Michelin 1 Key, Preferred Hotels recognition, Mr & Mrs Smith Seal of Approval make it a safer choice for first-timers who want rural calm with credible hospitality signals.

Rosa Grand Milano - Starhotels Collezione
Milan, Italy
Book Rosa Grand Milano - Starhotels Collezione if the priority is a central Milan base with credible hotel recognition and easy booking. Standard rooms are the value move for short stays; suite-level only makes sense for families, longer trips, or travelers who will spend meaningful time in the room.

Amrit Ocean Resort & Residences – Singer Island
Riviera Beach, United States
Book Amrit Ocean Resort & Residences – Singer Island if you want a calmer Riviera Beach resort base with easier booking than the bigger Palm Beach names. It is strongest for business travelers adding recovery time or couples who want the coast without making Palm Beach's hotel scene the main event.

Majestic Hotel-SPA Champs-Elysées
Paris, France
Book Majestic Hotel-SPA Champs-Elysées if a calm Right Bank base with spa and pool access matters more than palace-hotel theater. It is an easier Paris luxury booking than bigger-name neighbors, better for couples, business travelers, wellness-focused weekends than for guests chasing a scene-heavy stay.

Edgewood Tahoe
Stateline, United States
Edgewood Tahoe is the Stateline pick for a polished special-occasion stay, backed by Michelin 1 Key, Forbes 4-Star, La Liste Top Hotels, Virtuoso, Preferred Hotels recognition. It is worth prioritizing when atmosphere and resort polish matter more than casino energy or pure value; compare Harrah's if central Stateline convenience is the main goal.

The Preserve Sporting Club & Resort
Richmond, United States
The Preserve Sporting Club & Resort works for a first Rhode Island resort stay built around privacy, outdoor space, on-property time. It is less compelling as a quick base for Newport, beach days, or restaurant-hopping, so compare seasonal rates carefully against coastal peers before committing.

PGA National Resort
Palm Beach Gardens, United States
Book PGA National Resort if you want a Palm Beach Gardens resort base rather than a beach-first Palm Beach hotel. It suits golf-adjacent trips, business travel, groups, guests who want a larger property with room to spend time on-site. Choose The Breakers or White Elephant Palm Beach instead if the address and classic Palm Beach atmosphere matter more.
Overview
The 2025 L.V.X. Collection features 15 properties across 9 countries, spanning from Capalbio, Italy to Cancun, Mexico. This edition represents a complete refresh; zero hotels carried over from 2024, when 337 properties dropped out. The list now focuses on a tighter selection led by Locanda Rossa in Italy's Tuscan Maremma, followed by Pendry Park City and AJWA Sultanahmet in Istanbul.
The 2025 edition marks a dramatic shift in the L.V.X. Collection's approach. Instead of the 337 properties from 2024, the list now includes just 15 hotels across 9 countries and 15 cities. Every single property is new; the previous leader, Sea Cliff Resort & Spa Zanzibar, dropped out along with the entire 2024 roster. The geographic spread now includes Italy, the United States (Park City and Riviera Beach), Turkey, Canada (Richmond and Toronto), India, the United Kingdom, France, Mexico. The collection balances European heritage properties like The Guardsman in London and Majestic Hotel-SPA Champs-Elysées in Paris with North American resort destinations and emerging luxury markets in India and Turkey.
The L.V.X. Collection downsized drastically in 2025, dropping from 337 hotels to just 15. None of last year's properties made the cut; including former top-ranker Sea Cliff Resort & Spa Zanzibar; making this a complete reset. The new list spans 9 countries with Locanda Rossa in Capalbio leading, followed by Pendry Park City and AJWA Sultanahmet. You'll find a mix of European city hotels (London, Paris), North American ski and beach resorts, properties in India, Turkey, Mexico. The drastically smaller selection suggests a shift toward extreme curation rather than the broad portfolio approach of previous years.

About This Edition
This edition represents the most dramatic year-over-year change in the L.V.X. Collection's recent history. The list contracted by 95%, going from 337 properties to 15, with zero carryover. The 2024 leader, Sea Cliff Resort & Spa Zanzibar, is gone, along with properties like andBeyond Phinda Homestead and Hacienda Del Sol Guest Ranch Resort. The new lineup spreads across 15 cities in 9 countries, with no city appearing twice. The geographic distribution leans North American and European: two Canadian properties (The Preserve Sporting Club & Resort in Richmond and SoHo Hotel Toronto), two U.S. entries (Pendry Park City and Amrit Ocean Resort in Riviera Beach), and European selections in London, Paris, Istanbul. Italy's Locanda Rossa leads the collection from the relatively under-the-radar Capalbio area. The list also includes The Leela Ambience Gurugram in India, Garza Blanca Resort & Spa in Cancun, AJWA Sultanahmet in Istanbul's historic district. The dramatic reduction suggests either a fundamental repositioning of what L.V.X. Collection represents or a list still being rebuilt after a reset. For travelers, this smaller selection makes the collection easier to navigate but raises questions about selection criteria when an entire year's worth of properties gets replaced.
