Grantley Hall has joined The Leading Hotels of the World, a “prestigious” collection of independent luxury hotels from across the world. The consortium includes establishments such as The Ritz London, Gleneagles, Sandy Lane and Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo, among others.
Grantley Hall will now be the only member in England that is outside of London, placing it within the “exclusive” group which has only a 5% annual acceptance rate.
Founded in 1928, The Leading Hotels of the World champions excellence within its network of over 400 luxury hotels across more than 80 countries.
The organisation says it “upholds the highest standards of service and hospitality, delivering unparalleled five-star experiences to sophisticated travellers worldwide”.
Grantley Hall has also become part of the Forbes Travel Guide, and has additionally joined Walpole, the UK’s official sector body for luxury brands.
Nuno César de Sá, general manager of Grantley Hall, said: “We are immensely proud to join The Leading Hotels of the World, an inspiring collection of the most extraordinary hotels globally.
“Over the past five years, Grantley Hall has redefined luxury in England and this recognition reinforces our dedication to creating unique and exceptional experiences for our guests. It’s an honour to be part of a group that embodies the very essence of luxury hospitality, and we look forward to working as part of The Leading Hotels of the World community.”
Deniz Omurgonulsen, vice president, Member Experience at The Leading Hotels of the World, added: “We are delighted to welcome Grantley Hall to The Leading Hotels of the World. This extraordinary 17th Century manor house, originally crafted as a private residence and now a beacon of refined hospitality, embodies the artistry and quality that define our collection.
“After an inspiring four-year restoration, Grantley Hall stands as both a guardian of timeless elegance and a celebration of modern luxury. As our sole member in England outside of London, it proudly represents the heart and heritage of exceptional hospitality.”
