Rosewood Hotel Group has announced the opening of Carlyle & Co., a private members’ club located in Hong Kong.
The landmark club is the first location of Rosewood Hotel Group’s latest brand, which presents a new style of the private membership experience. Carlyle & Co. will welcome a carefully curated community of members drawn together by personalities, passions, interests and stories, rather than status or profession, to experience exceptional dining and lifestyle experiences, cultural events and entertainment.
Grounded in the timeless spirit of its namesake, The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel in New York City, Carlyle & Co. is located above Rosewood Hong Kong, and offers a 25,000ft2 social sanctuary with a outdoor terrace boasting sweeping views of the city.
A selection of carefully appointed spaces have been designed for a carousel of day-to-night experiences – from the Music Room, Games Room, Barber and Tailor to the Wine Cellar and Brasserie – each offering an ideal setting to connect, work, dine and celebrate.
With this opening, Carlyle & Co. will launch the first chapter of the Café Carlyle – which has been perfecting the quintessential supper club experience for 65 years – outside of New York. In addition, a private floor with eight individually designed bedrooms are available for members and their guests who wish to stay overnight.
“I am thrilled to bring the irrepressible spirit, inimitable style and intangible sense of magic that I fell in love with at The Carlyle in New York to Hong Kong with the inaugural Carlyle & Co.,” comments Sonia Cheng, CEO of Rosewood Hotel Group and Founder of Carlyle & Co. “A progressive concept created for today, Carlyle & Co. will offer a unique experience in the private members’ club landscape while providing the community and connection that people are longing for.”
Designed by Ilse Crawford of Studioilse, Carlyle & Co. establishes a distinct sense of its locale while simultaneously evoking the timeless glamour and playfulness of The Carlyle in New York. Murals by Jean-Philippe Delhomme and Christina Zimpel bring a whimsical spirit reminiscent of the Bemelmans Bar at The Carlyle. The Bedrooms themselves are named after characters connected to the long history of The Carlyle, each one individually decorated for a more personal and unique overnight experience.
At the centre of Carlyle & Co. is a rich and varied cultural programme featuring cutting-edge business insights, experimental wellness workshops, wine tastings and innovative panel discussions.
