Welcome to Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts

Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts is built on a legacy of excellence. Our story began on Fifth Avenue in New York in 1893 and continued with the opening of Waldorf Astoria New York on Park Avenue in 1931, a hotel Conrad Hilton famously called “The Greatest of Them All.” What was once the world’s most iconic hotel is now a collection of landmark properties in the world’s most sought-after destinations. We are proud of a heritage defined by firsts, and a brand that continues to shape the future of luxury hospitality.

Waldorf Astoria is designed to resonate with a guest we call the Prestigious Connoisseur. These guests are fluent in luxury, with a refined eye for design, detail, and service. They see travel as a way to deepen personal connection and seek experiences that are seamless, authentic, and elevated. Many are executives, entrepreneurs, or business owners who value discretion, precision, and beauty in equal measure.

At Waldorf Astoria, we define effortless luxury — rooted in elegant service and brought to life through unforgettable experiences. We believe true luxury should make you feel at ease. It should never feel like a performance.

Our brand is anchored by three brand pillars: refined haven, sincerely elegant service, and unforgettable experiences. As General Manager, your role is to bring these pillars to life across every touchpoint, guiding your team to deliver on our brand’s promise of excellence.
