Hotel Legends: St. Regis Celebrates 120 Years

Passport to Everywhere with Melissa Biggs Bradley

The iconic St. Regis celebrates its 120th anniversary this year, and to help tell its epic story, Melissa is joined by three key members of the brand: Amanda Nichols, the global brand leader of St. Regis; Octavia Marginean-Tahiroglu, the general manager of The St. Regis New York; and Israel Kelly, who’s been on the frontlines of the respected butler team for 29 years. Together, they discuss how the prestigious collection of hotels set a new standard for luxury hospitality, starting with the opening of The St. Regis New York in 1904. From the Astor family’s original vision to the rich traditions that still thrive today, the three explore how this timeless legacy evolved over the years, including renovations that preserve its cultural heritage, the ever-refined service of the butler team and what the future has in store. Tune in to discover the secrets behind this timeless brand and what makes the flagship truly special (hint: a famous morning cocktail was crafted on site).
