Bentley presented a new Bentley Suite as a peak travel destination in the Middle East for its discerning customers. Inspired by the bespoke craftsmanship of the Mulsanne model, this latest creation from the celebrated collaboration between Bentley Motors and St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, is part of the growing collection of acclaimed signature Bentley suites – currently also located at The St. Regis New York and The St. Regis Istanbul.
The new Bentley suite designed for the modern aficionado of luxury and performance made its debut at the St. Regis Dubai in Al Habtoor city. The suite features hand-crafted finishes and one-of-a-kind furnishings. Located on the fourth floor of the hotel, the custom-designed one-bedroom Bentley suite features a spacious entry foyer, generous living room and dining area, with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the hotel’s gardens, lavish bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and dedicated dressing area.
On entering the 195-square-metre suite through a pair of double doors, guests are greeted by a blend of cream and neutral tones, set against the rich wood finishes, elegant marble floor and leather accents on hand-crafted furnishings. The entrance to the suite features Bentley-painted walls with polished steel detailing and a sleek walnut veneer ceiling.
In the living room, an exquisite LED chandelier inspired by the headlights of the Mulsanne takes centre stage above the 12-seater smoked fiddleback veneer dining table. Providing absolute comfort and relaxation, an ultra-luxe fluted linen leather sofa is accompanied by two camel hide ottomans, with Bentley’s signature diamond quilting, to complement the seating arrangements. Adding to the room’s rich mix of textures is a carved rug reminiscent of the matrix grille on the Mulsanne.
Consistent with Bentley’s ‘hidden delights’ concept, the main wall slides back to reveal a television screen and five Breitling clocks keeping time across major gateway cities.
The adjacent study echoes Bentley’s signature Mulliner room with veneer walls, a silk carpet, and a luxurious sofa adorned with cushions featuring Bentley seatbelt detailing. The signature room features a custom-made multi-compartment coffee table featuring Bentley ice lacquer and porpoise hide tray detail.
The master bedroom displays fluted Bentley leather walls, bedside tables inspired by the Mulsanne Speed wing emblem in Burr walnut and carved textured carpets reflecting the iconic matrix grille. Light features are made from backlit domes of Bentley paints and in the dressing room; Bentley’s signature diamond detailing is etched into the frame of the glass mirror.
The St. Regis Dubai marked the debut of the St. Regis brand in Dubai when it opened in November last year. The hotel is part of the Al Habtoor City development on Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai’s first fully integrated urban resort which features two other Starwood hotels under the distinct W Hotels and Westin brands as well as The Hotel Collection, The Leisure Collection and The Residence Collection. Featuring French beaux-arts architecture and neo-classical interiors, the 234-room hotel features 52 suites.
