Ennismore is an international collection of hotel brands, restaurants, bars, and lounges with a presence in major nightlife hubs across the planet.

Ennismore hotel brands include SLS Hotels & Residences, Mondrian, Delano, Hyde Hotels & Residences, and more, and are generally known for offering dining, nightlife, and hospitality services that are second to none.

Let’s explore Ennismore’s brands and give you the inside scoop on the best ones to book.

What Is Ennismore?

Ennismore is a lifestyle hospitality company that includes 17 brands, over 160 open hotels (with over 100 in the pipeline), and over 500 restaurants and bars (with over 400 in the pipeline).

The group focuses on delivering luxury and lifestyle experiences, including inspiring design elements, modern accommodations, incredible clubs, gastronomic restaurants, chic lounges, and posh spas.

In 2021, Ennismore entered into a joint venture with Accor. The brands formerly under sbe Hotels, such as SLS, Delano, and Mondrian, were merged into Ennismore’s existing portfolio of hotel brands, which included 25hours, Mama Shelter, Our Habitas, Rixos, SO/, and the Hoxton.

How To Maximize Ennismore Stays With Travel Cards

Getting extra value from your stay can be as easy as using the right card. Plus, depending on which channel you use to book your stay, you can get discounts, benefits, and more at Ennismore properties.

How To Use ALL – Accor Live Limitless Points for Ennismore Stays

Ennismore is majority-owned by Accor Hotels, which allows travelers to earn and redeem ALL – Accor Live Limitless Reward points at Ennismore properties around the world.

You’ll get a fixed value of €20 ($22) for every 1,000 Rewards points you redeem. That means each of your Accor Rewards points is worth about 2.2 cents.

You can earn ALL – Accor Live Limitless points in multiple ways, including staying at Accor properties or transferring from credit card programs:

Book via Amex’s the Hotel Collection

If you happen to be paying for your stay instead of redeeming points for it, you might consider booking through the Hotel Collection, which confers a room upgrade upon arrival, if available, and offers a $100 property credit per stay.

To book a stay at the Hotel Collection, you must have an eligible American Express card, like the American Express® Gold Card, American Express® Business Gold Card, The Platinum Card® from American Express, The Business Platinum Card® from American Express, or Centurion® Card from American Express.

Hot Tip: Amex Platinum cardmembers can also get up to $200 in statement credits every year on prepaid hotel stays of 2 or more nights at the Hotel Collection booked via AmexTravel.com.

Book via Virtuoso

Virtuoso offers another way for anyone to get elite benefits on hotel stays, as long as you book your stay through a Virtuoso advisor. When you make a Virtuoso booking, you get:

  • Daily breakfast for 2
  • A room upgrade upon arrival, subject to availability
  • Early check-in and late checkout, subject to availability
  • A Virtuoso amenity, such as a $100 food-and-beverage credit or a $100 property credit
  • Complimentary Wi-Fi

Bottom Line: The difference between Virtuoso and the Hotel Collection is that Virtuoso bookings offer daily breakfast, early check-in, late checkout, and free Wi-Fi. However, there are fewer properties participating in Virtuoso than the Hotel Collection. You need an eligible Amex card to book a stay at the Hotel Collection, whereas you need to make Virtuoso bookings through an eligible adviser.
