MGallery is one of the world’s best boutique hotel brands with a global portfolio of hotels and resorts. MGallery is part of Accor Hotels with over 5,000 hotels worldwide, ranging from luxury properties to economy hotels.
MGallery is a boutique brand within Accor offering a collection of boutique hotels dedicated to lovers of life, literature, and culture. Each MGallery hotel stands as a gateway into another world – be it a bygone era, a hidden haven, or a spectacular natural landscape.
The collection is comprised of historic luxury hotels, many of which have hosted historic figures or iconic poets and authors. Others are stunningly modern design hotels, utterly unique in the cities they inhabit. In every case, MGallery hotels are each inspired by their own stories, which you’ll hear whispered through the halls, echoed in the artful design, and layered into the details of signature dishes and cocktails.
At the heart of each MGallery is a Living Room – a luxury hotel lobby that doubles as an inviting social space. Guests use this space to relax, meet colleagues, or even catch up on work. Each hotel’s Living Room is artfully appointed in a way that conveys the story behind the property it represents. Pull a book from the shelf, sink into a comfortable armchair, and read up on the local history. In the afternoon, guests are invited to join the manager for canapés and cocktails during the afternoon Apéro Chic. Finally, be sure to stop in the evening to witness the transformation of this relaxation space during the daily candle ritual.
