Mandarin Oriental eyes European...

Hotels in Paris and Amsterdam set to join the portfolio

Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group is set to add two hotels to its European portfolio early next year.

The luxury hotel group has pitched an offer to manage Hôtel Lutetia in Paris, France and the Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The acceptance of the offer is subject to the completion of a consultation process.

Following the finalisation of the transaction, Hôtel Lutetia will be rebranded as Mandarin Oriental Lutetia, Paris, while the Conservatorium Hotel will be rebranded as Mandarin Oriental Conservatorium, Amsterdam, in January 2026, following an upgrade.The Conservatorium will remain open during this time.

The opportunity to manage these hotels is a milestone in the Group’s new brand-led growth strategy, under the leadership of Group Chief Executive Laurent Kleitman, to deliver exceptional guest-centric experiences while accelerating the brand’s global expansion.

Kleitman said of the move: “These new long-term management agreements with two of Europe’s great heritage hotels are core to our strategy of expanding and strengthening our brand’s presence in world destinations that appeal to our fans.”

“Welcoming the legendary Hôtel Lutetia to our portfolio, 115 years after its opening, further strengthens Mandarin Oriental’s foothold in this key luxury market, where we are successfully operating Mandarin Oriental, Paris on Rue Saint Honoré since 2011.

“Having soon, two Palace hotels in Paris, one on the left and one on the right bank, we are proudly reaffirming our relentless commitment to the French hospitality market and creating a compelling choice for our guests.

"Indeed, we have significant experience of operating two hotels in key city centre destinations - including Hong Kong, London, Beijing and soon, Dubai - where we have successfully showcased two distinct facets of each destination."

The Hotels are part of the Locka Holding BV Founder, Alfred Akirov, said: “We are delighted to be collaborating with Mandarin Oriental to rebrand our heritage landmarks and bring a new energy to the experiences that both have to offer.”
