Brand

Rosewood

A sense of place, written into each building: As Rare as a Rosewood.

Rosewood began in Dallas with Caroline Rose Hunt and the Mansion on Turtle Creek, then rebuilt itself as a global sense-of-place luxury brand under Hong Kong's Rosewood Hotel Group (Chow Tai Fook Enterprises), led by CEO Sonia Cheng. The collection mixes historic city icons (Hotel de Crillon in Paris, The Carlyle in New York, Rosewood London) with destination resorts (Mayakoba, Las Ventanas, Little Dix Bay, Kona Village). Where Aman sells scarcity of keys and Belmond sells singular heritage buildings, Rosewood sells local storytelling at five-star density: each property is meant to feel native to its city or coast, not stamped from a template. Expansion has been fast in the mid-2020s, with new European and Asia openings layered onto the Americas resort core.

Direct rosewoodhotels.com bookings do not unlock the Elite amenity set. Virtuoso and card luxury programs may also list some properties; benefits are usually not stacked on one booking.
