With 100 rooms and suites, two restaurants including the only Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant in France, one bar and four historic events and reception rooms, guests may look forward to a princely stay in a historic retreat. A Refined Setting in the Heart of Paris’ Most Chic and Discreet Neighbourhood Passing through the original iron gates, guests arrive in a small, protected courtyard under the restored glass porte cochere. Two Ming Dynasty inspired vases flank the entryway and set the tone from the outset for Asia-meets-Paris elegance. To the right, visitors take a step back in time to 1896 as they enter the historic billiard room with a fireplace, fumoir and waiting room. Bathed in natural light, the hotel lobby features high ceilings and refurbished marble. Its thoughtfully placed alcoves offer discreet nooks for guests to consult with Shangri-La personnel. Imperial insignias and ornate monograms of Prince Roland Bonaparte, subtly integrated into the Page 2 architecture, are complemented with Asian influence in the decor and ambience of the hotel and its restaurants, bar and salons.

This is what we delve into here in these pages across London, Ascot, Paris, Geneva, Milan, Rome, Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, with Hotel Eden in Rome having joined Dorchester Collection this year. All of these are truly exciting destinations, and Dorchester Collection hotels act as concentrated focal points in these epicentres of culture, like small communities, that become enriched with every event and every guest they welcome. Yaffa Assouline collect N°14 dorchester collection... 05 Christopher Cowdray Chief Executive Officer of Dorchester Collection A WORD from hen I joined Dorchester Collection, we were W five hotels, which all operated individually. Today, we are focused on Dorchester Collection as one entity, having evolved from being a group to becoming a collection. The challenge has been to find the right properties to fit into our portfolio; they must be ‘trophy hotels’ that provide a perfect setting for the high-level quality products, personal services and memorable guest experiences that remain constant throughout Dorchester Collection. Our latest addition, the 121-room Hotel Eden, suits such criteria flawlessly; its landmark status, her - itage and individuality complement the style and locations of our other nine hotels in the UK, France, Switzerland, Italy and the US. It is one of the world’s most majestic and iconic hotels in a truly superb setting. Overlooking the seven hills of the Eternal City, this presence in Rome, one of the major epi - centres of classicism, creates synergies with our Hotel Principe di Savoia in Milan.
