From whiskey tours at the world's finest distilleries to fashion favorites, and even unforgettable masterclasses, VIP guests can expect delightful surprises.
In today's world of travel and hospitality, luxury has become the standard. It’s only natural that Sotheby’s, the leading auction house, would join the trend, creating unforgettable experiences in partnership with Marriott International’s luxury hotel group. This collaboration, named Iconic Pieces. Extraordinary Experiences, offers travel experiences through Sotheby’s Sealed, an exclusive online auction. Under the umbrella of Marriott Luxury Group are renowned hotels such as The Ritz-Carlton, Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts, St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, JW Marriott, and W Hotels, where guests will have the opportunity to enjoy bespoke travel and unforgettable moments.
Unforgettable Luxury Experiences
For those who have already seen the best of the world and stayed in the most luxurious suites, the true value now lies in experiences. Sotheby’s and Marriott use their vast expertise to create opportunities that were once unimaginable. The first of these unique offerings is Whiskey Reverie, presented by The Ritz-Carlton. This exclusive program allows guests staying at The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad to enjoy a dinner with icons of the whiskey industry, followed by a trip to Tennessee to further explore the world of whiskey.
For fashion lovers, there’s the Alexander McQueen Discovery experience, which includes a private dinner at Berners Tavern, led by Michelin-starred chef Jason Atherton, featuring a five-course tasting menu paired with wines that pay tribute to McQueen’s most iconic years. Guests will also stay at EDITION hotels and have the opportunity to explore the legacy of visionary designer Alexander McQueen, visit his favorite spots in London such as Soho and Savile Row, participate in a photoshoot with French visual artist Ann Ray, and dine at Michelin-starred restaurants.
Exclusive Masterclasses and More
In addition to travel, VIP guests from both brands will gain access to exclusive masterclasses at the most iconic Marriott Luxury Group locations. The first masterclass, titled Whiskey & Watches, will be held at The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad, where participants will savor fine American whiskies while admiring rare timepieces. Additionally, an exclusive jewelry masterclass will be held in the prestigious Presidential Suite at St. Regis New York, where select guests will have the opportunity to preview items from Sotheby’s Important Jewels auction.
For those seeking even grander adventures, there’s the ultra-luxurious Four Seasons Uncharted Discovery Private Jet program. This 21-day journey takes guests around the globe, through destinations such as Seattle, Kyoto, Bali, Seychelles, Rwanda, Marrakech, Bogotá, and the Galapagos Islands.
