Kempinski Hotels

Kempinski Hotels is a luxury hotel brand with roots dating to 1897, positioned around European-style hospitality adapted to the character of each destination. Its own history describes the brand carrying “European luxury” into new markets while adding local flavours, which makes it a fit for guests who want formal service, destination context and established grand-hotel settings rather than a purely standardized stay. Typical guests include business travelers, culture-minded leisure travelers and guests seeking attentive, individualized hosting. A signature feature is Kempinski’s “Lady in Red”, a guest-facing host role described by the brand as offering individual help, hotel knowledge and local-area expertise. Official brand history places Kempinski across Europe, China and the wider Asia-Pacific region, the Arabian Peninsula and Middle East, parts of Africa, and selected destinations in the Americas including Havana and Cancun.
