Incentive travelers staying at any of the properties that are part of The Luxury Collection Hotels & Resorts can relax a little more with the launch of two new signature travel services. Thanks to a partnership with Luggage Forward and NewspaperDirect, guests of The Luxury Collection can enjoy traveling luggage-free and staying informed with access to a world of newspapers and publications during their stay.
Cumbersome suitcases are no longer a concern with The Luxury Collection Luggage Liaison. Prior to departure, bags are retrieved by Luggage Forward's door-to-door luggage delivery service and sent to the hotel to be placed in the room and unpacked before guest arrival. The service is also available for the guest's return trip.
Through the new partnership between The Luxury Collection and NewspaperDirect, guests can also select from more than 600 newspapers and magazines from 77 countries, and have their favorites delivered right to their room.
"We define The Luxury Collection by our guests and the experiences and services they demand and expect. Nothing less than an exceptional level of service, perfect location and indigenous personal offerings will do," says Ross Klein, president of Starwood's Luxury Brands Group. "We are proud to launch the brand’s global partnerships in our continued effort to offer our global guests a port to the world's most enriching experiences found only within The Luxury Collection."
The Grand Bregtagne in Athens; Hotel Imperial in Kuala Lumpur and The Phoenician in Scottsdale are among the elegant properties that are part of The Luxury Collection Hotels and Resorts.
