2 8 1 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I The breathtaking new Bulgari hotel in London’s Knightsbridge may incorporate state-of the art design, but it is founded on a centuries-old commitment to the art of luxury A ny connoisseur of luxury will be familiar with the name Bulgari. Today, the globally renowned brand forms part of the prestigious LVMH Group, but it began as a single jewellery shop in Rome in 1884. Bulgari then swiftly gained a reputation as a creator of magnificent, beautiful pieces – the epitome of Italian style. The company has evolved in a phenomenal fashion, developing a hugely respected international reputation. It now owns a stunning luxury portfolio of products and services, ranging from jewellery and watches to accessories and perfumes. Another branch in this beguiling medley of pure exquisiteness is hotels. Bulgari operates resorts and luxury accommodation in stunningly beautiful locations like Bali and Milan. And the latest addition to this suite of perfection is in London. I’m sure you’ll be as ecstatic as we are that a Bulgari hotel has just opened in one of our favourite cities outside Abu Dhabi. Situated within the splendour of Knightsbridge, the building is in one of London’s most exquisite areas. And it has already made a name for itself as a provider of the very pinnacle of luxury.
