Best Hotels with Celebrity Connections
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Spend the night in an A-list hotel, or at the very least stop by for a celeb-spotting lunch.
Le Meurice, Paris, France
Salvador Dalí once asked Le Meurice’s room service to bring a flock of sheep to his room (they did)
If the walls of Le Meurice could talk, they’d have some great stories. But luckily, some of these stories are already out in the open; one of the hotel’s most distinguished guests was pioneering Surrealist artist, Salvador Dalí, who once asked room service to bring a flock of sheep to his room (they did). These days, the hotel’s clientele includes Beyoncé and Jay-Z, thanks to its 3-star Michelin restaurant, superb central location facing the Jardin des Tuileries and palatial suites.
The Dorchester, London, UK
Make like the Kardashians and have afternoon tea at the Dorchester
This discreet Mayfair retreat served as the setting for Prince Philip’s stag do the night before he married Queen Elizabeth in 1947. It’s also been frequented by Elizabeth Taylor, Kate Moss and the Kardashians, while General Eisenhower resided here during World War II. Have afternoon tea in The Promenade, the ground floor lobby where potted palm trees and pea-green vintage sofas are dotted between the orange Corinthian marble columns.
The American Colony, Jerusalem, Israel
From Lawrence of Arabia to Natalie Portman, the American Colony’s clientele list is astounding
Inside the hotel lobby, the wall of plaques listing the notable guests of the American Colony is quite something; from Lawrence of Arabia and John Betjeman, to several USA presidents, lovers Bob Dylan and Joan Baez, and – more recently – actors Robert De Niro and Natalie Portman. But it’s not surprising why this place attracts a flurry of famous names. Guests can swim in an outdoor infinity pool tiled with mother of pearl mosaic while being serenaded by call to prayer from the nearby mosque, and dine on sensational Middle Eastern food served in the hotel’s exquisite courtyard (the orange trees here also provide guests with fresh juice every morning).
Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai, India
Follow in Barack Obama and Mick Jagger’s footsteps checking into the Taj Mahal Palace
A haunt of Barack Obama, Mick Jagger, Prince William and Kate Middleton, to name a few, the Taj Mahal Palace in Mumbai is the epitome of grandeur. From its statuesque facade that mixes Moorish arches with Renaissance and Rajput architectural features, to its marble, gold and rosewood interior, it’s a real work of art. And situated right next to the Gateway of India, boasts mesmerising sunsets from the ocean-facing suites, casting a golden gleam over this treasured monument with a misty Arabian Sea backdrop.
