Transforming the former In and Out Military Club, Auberge continues strategic growth in Europe.

Auberge Resorts Collection, the award-winning portfolio of one-of-a-kind luxury hotels, resorts and residences, has been appointed by Reuben Brothers, London-based global leaders in real estate, to manage Cambridge House, the former In and Out Military Club, in Mayfair, London. The imaginative renewal of this historic property at 94 Piccadilly will capture the spirit of London like no other hotel to provide a magnetic new Mayfair destination for Londoners and international visitors alike.

Set to open in late 2025, Cambridge House, Auberge Resorts Collection will introduce the award-winning hospitality brand's experiential luxury, unsurpassed personal service, vibrant and unique dining and a destination Auberge Spa to the global capital. The hotel is part of Reuben Brothers' £1 billion regeneration of 1.3 prime acres of the Piccadilly Estate, including the super-prime residential development of One Carrington and the cobblestone streets of Shepherd Market.

Poised between the serenity of Green Park and vibrant Shepherd Market, the 102-room hotel, together with its private members' club, will be both retreat and social hub. Classically English yet drawing on the eclectic influences that have made Great Britain what it is today, it will appeal as much by day as by night. Their debut hotel in the UK, two leading designers will bring the property's intriguing duality to life: Jean-Louis Deniot overseeing the transformation of the hotel, and Laura Gonzalez designing the club's bars, dining venues, spa and nine members'-only club rooms.

Encompassing several historic properties, it is the Georgian mansion at the heart of the hotel that is a London icon - the gracious, Grade 1-listed, Palladian-style townhouse commissioned by the 2^nd Earl of Egremont in 1756. Built to entertain the political and social elite of the age, the property has been at the centre of London life ever since, hosting Queen Victoria, serving as PM Lord Palmerston's proxy No.10, home to the Duke of Cambridge and Lord Cholmondeley, and the Naval and Military 'In and Out' Club from 1865 to 1999.

The lively dining scene at Cambridge House, Auberge Resorts Collection will reflect the diverse allure the property has always exuded, with patrons able to dine almost anywhere they choose. Bringing a new energy to South Mayfair, the hotel will offer a kaleidoscope of venues - from its unique open-air jasmine courtyard, a truly one of a kind venue in this part of London, to the brasserie-style restaurant in its elegant, Georgian ballroom setting. An exciting culinary partnership will be announced in due course.

Inspired by Britain's healing lore and informed by its Roman bathhouses, the double-level spa will introduce Auberge's unmatched holistic wellness offering to London. Extensive hydrotherapy facilities, two heated swimming pools and seven treatment rooms will be complemented by a circular relaxation lounge, centred by a fire pit. The gym, activity studios, wet zones, heat rooms and bathhouse will all encourage an element of social connection integral to the spa's wellness concept.

As a new social centre, the hotel will feature event spaces suited to every occasion. Channeling the Georgian Era's opulence, the ballroom makes an incomparable setting for receptions, while the property's restaurants, bars and private rooms can accommodate events of every size and concept.

This announcement comes at an exciting time of thoughtful and strategic expansion in urban and European markets for Auberge Resorts Collection. Later this year, the brand will open Collegio alla Querce, Auberge Resorts Collection in Florence, Italy, which joins two existing Auberge properties in Europe, Domaine des Etangs, Auberge Resorts Collection in France and Grace Hotel, Auberge Resorts Collection in Santorini, Greece. Auberge will also soon open several additional urban locations including The Shore Club, Auberge Resorts Collection in Miami Beach, FL, The Knox, Auberge Resorts Collection in Dallas, TX and The Hearst Hotel, Auberge Resorts Collection in San Francisco, CA.
