What do you call someone who creates one-off hotels at the far bespoke end of the luxury spectrum, while simultaneously steering a global hospitality conglomerate to the fastest growth in the industry? Someone who can launch one of London’s most desirable private members’ clubs, and scale a value-proposition hostelry that looks great and only costs you €120 a night? Is that person a wunderkind? A prodigy? Forty-two-year-old Sharan Pasricha, the founder and co-CEO of Ennismore, the lifestyle hospitality company recently valued at more than €2bn, is more like a sport of nature: someone with the DNA of hotelier, real-estate developer, branding geek and club impresario, spliced together in a weird new species of hospitality purveyor.
Ennismore - the fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality company and joint venture with Accor, which holds a majority shareholding - today announces it has entered into exclusive negotiations to build a long-term partnership with Cain International (“Cain”) – the privately held investment firm – to drive forward the global expansion of the iconic hotel brand Delano.
The Duchess of York, 63, is a regular at at least six different private member s clubs in the capital s luxe district. FEMAIL takes a look at the London hotspots Fergie has frequented.
