The world of luxury hospitality is witnessing a dynamic evolution, with Accor and Ennismore leading the charge with exciting new developments that combine cultural richness, exceptional design, and global expansion. From the serene shores of Botany Bay to the vibrant cultural hubs of New York, London, and Miami, two distinct brands—MGallery by Accor and Delano—are setting the stage for transformative guest experiences, blending heritage with modern luxury.
MGallery’s Coastal Sanctuary: The Brighton Hotel Sydney
In the heart of Brighton-Le-Sands, The Brighton Hotel Sydney – MGallery Collection offers guests a serene escape where the tranquil waves of Botany Bay meet the refined luxury of Australian hospitality. A beautiful beachfront retreat, this hotel embodies the essence of Australia’s coastal charm, offering 307 sun-drenched rooms and suites with stunning views of the bay. Guests can bask in the warm Australian sunshine, relax in the hotel’s private balconies, or indulge in the rejuvenating wellness offerings designed to refresh both body and spirit.
At the core of MGallery’s vision, The Brighton Hotel is designed to reflect the cultural fusion of Greece and Australia, embracing the Mediterranean influences while paying tribute to the neighborhood’s historical roots. This is captured in the hotel’s distinctive architecture, which weaves together elements of sea, land, and local heritage. Inspired by the changing light of the bay, the design integrates natural textures and materials, offering a tranquil ambiance for guests seeking a serene interlude.
Guests are treated to a culinary journey at Ammos Brighton, the Mediterranean restaurant helmed by renowned Greek-Australian Chef Peter Conistis, whose dishes include signature creations such as moussaka with scallops and roasted eggplant. For a more laid-back experience, Coco’s on the Beach offers a festive and vibrant atmosphere, perfect for beachgoers to unwind with friends and enjoy the sunset over the bay. Additionally, the Sands Bar invites guests to savor craft cocktails while soaking in the panoramic views.
Delano’s Global Expansion: A New Era in Luxury Lifestyle Hospitality
While Accor’s MGallery takes luxury to the coastal retreats of Australia, Delano is making waves on the global stage. Ennismore, the fast-growing lifestyle hospitality company, has announced the arrival of Delano in SoHo, New York and London, building on the brand’s resurgence with the highly anticipated reopening of its iconic Miami Beach property in early 2026.
The Delano brand is synonymous with bold design, world-class entertainment, and luxury lifestyle experiences. This newest chapter in its legacy represents a blend of cultural relevance and innovative luxury, catering to a new generation of travelers who seek both style and substance in their hospitality choices.
Delano SoHo, located on the trendy Spring Street in Hudson Square, promises to be a modern sanctuary, offering 391 rooms and suites in a dynamic setting that blends modern aesthetics with soft, sculptural forms. A space for creative and cultural immersion, this property will feature expansive event spaces and a diverse programming offering that elevates the luxury lifestyle experience.
Meanwhile, Delano London, set to open in late 2026, is shaping up to be a cultural and architectural landmark. Situated just steps from Kensington Gardens, the hotel will embrace a refined community spirit, integrating natural textures and an artful blend of modernity and heritage. With just 67 rooms and suites, Delano London will offer an intimate yet elevated experience, where guests can enjoy a signature cocktail at the famous Rose Bar or retreat to a private event space for an unforgettable gathering.
The Rise of Lifestyle Luxury: A Parallel Vision
Both MGallery’s Brighton Hotel Sydney and Delano’s upcoming properties reflect a shared commitment to redefining luxury in the contemporary travel landscape. These brands understand that today’s travelers are not just seeking high-end amenities but authenticity, local culture, and experiential luxury.
For Accor, MGallery continues to lead the charge in boutique and experiential luxury, with properties that offer guests an opportunity to immerse themselves in their surroundings. The Brighton Hotel Sydney is a perfect example of this ethos, where the culinary delights, wellness offerings, and heritage-infused design ensure guests experience not just a stay but a sensory journey into the heart of Australia’s coastal life.
Similarly, Delano’s global expansion shows how the brand is evolving to meet the demands of the modern luxury traveler, who desires more than just a hotel room. The brand’s upcoming launches in New York, London, and the anticipated reopening of Miami Beach reflect its ability to blend luxury, cultural immersion, and dynamic programming.
A Bold Future for Hospitality: The Unfolding Legacy of Delano and MGallery
With MGallery continuing to expand its footprint in prime locations across the globe, and Delano revitalizing its presence in some of the world’s most exciting cities, these brands are shaping the future of luxury and lifestyle hospitality. Whether it’s by the beach in Sydney or in the heart of global metropolises like New York and London, these properties are about creating experiences that go beyond the ordinary, blending timeless design with modern luxury.
As both brands continue their expansion, the future of lifestyle luxury looks more vibrant than ever. For travelers seeking a unique blend of heritage, culture, and refinement, MGallery and Delano are setting new standards for what it means to stay in style—anywhere in the world.
