Soho House Goes Global with Five New Hotels

Soho Beach House, MiamiFrom its roots as a private members club in London, Soho House has cropped up in hot destinations in the United States: New York, Miami, and Los Angeles. Now the group is going global- with five chic properties confirmed in the “creative hubs” of Toronto, Istanbul, Mumbai, Barcelona and Chicago before 2014.

First up this fall is the Soho House Toronto, which makes sense, says the New York Daily News, “given the company's experience in running 'pop-up' clubs every year during the Toronto International Film Festival, one of the world's leading cinema events.” Located in a restored building from the 1800s that housed one of Toronto's first hotels, the property will have a hot rooftop bar. Next in spring 2013 is the Soho House Miami, the first for the brand in Asia, followed by Chicago and Istanbul in spring 2014 and Barcelona in winter 2014. Soho House Istanbul will be the biggest of the bunch, spanning three buildings with rooftop pools and 80 hotel bedrooms.

Each property will reflect the personality of the destination, while also encompassing the Soho House ethos. At all hotels, guests can expect “light and airy bedrooms, rainforest showers and bathrooms stocked with Cowshed products.” For more information, visit www.sohohouse.com
