Dorchester Collection Launches 'Taste of Dorchester Collection'
Beginning this September, cosmopolitan travelers at any Dorchester Collection address around the globe can enjoy these signature dishes that celebrate and capture the essence of each individual hotel – whether they’re looking to indulge in a Le Meurice “Lobster Club” while at Hotel Principe di Savoia in Milan, Coworth Park’s “Fish & Chips” while at Le Richemond in Geneva, or The Beverly Hills Hotel’s “McCarthy Salad” while at Hotel Eden in Rome.

Dorchester Collection’s Innovation Committee, a multidisciplinary team comprised of innovation champions from each property, surveyed guests on their preferences and learned that an exceptionally satisfying and enjoyable dining experience has a significant positive impact on a guest’s emotional connection with the hotels. The survey also revealed that 80% of Dorchester Collection guests dine in at least one on-property restaurant during their stay, a result of the company’s blend of historical and celebrity chef restaurants which appeal to their luxury clientele.

Based on these findings, the Innovation Committee developed the idea of bringing the hotels together through food. They generated and gathered over 600 unique ideas at their annual forum and “Taste of Dorchester Collection” is the first concept to be implemented by the committee.

“Taste of Dorchester Collection” will be a permanent feature on in-room dining menus for guests to choose and enjoy at all Dorchester Collection hotels starting September 1. The menu will include:

GARDEN VEGETABLE SOUP – HOTEL BEL-AIR, LOS ANGELES
THE CROQUE-PLAZA – HOTEL PLAZA ATHÉNÉE, PARIS
