Despite the prevalence of private members’ clubs across key cities worldwide, these hallowed institutions still uphold their pedigrees of professionalism and prestige. However, in order to appeal to today’s ever curious but extremely time-pressed and overwhelmed guest, shrewd establishments are becoming gateways to invigorating cultural stimuli, rich conversations, progressive wellness protocols and gastronomical discovery.

Selling Services Defined by Excellence

Eminent members’ clubs are appealing to distinguished guests through top-level services that centre around the lifestyle and leisure experiences that matter most to them. These include impactful health and wellness programmes (some exploring progressive concepts like psychedelics and sound healing), as well as exceptional dining and imbibing experiences.

Aspirational Lifestyle Anchors

Ambitious private members’ clubs are extending their propositions to new and exciting formats that offer deeper interactions with the brand. While hospitality-minded members’ clubs are morphing into elegant boutique hotels, branded luxury residences are becoming aspirational accommodation for wealthy individuals who wish to bring concierge-style services and immaculate interior design into their everyday lives.
