Belgrade is a fairly cool metropolis, and for years a St. Regis has been below growth there. With the lodge anticipated to open within the very close to future, I wished to take an up to date take a look at what we will anticipate.
Particulars of the brand new St. Regis Belgrade
The brand new 119-room St. Regis Belgrade is presently accepting reservations for stays as of November 2, 2024. Hopefully this timeline sticks, although it’s value noting that in late 2023, the lodge was accepting reservations for stays as of February 1, 2024. So a delay of 9 months not lengthy earlier than the deliberate opening isn’t an ideal signal…
Right here’s what we all know to date concerning the St. Regis Belgrade:
- The St. Regis Belgrade will likely be located in Kula Belgrade, the trendy 42-story constructing that’s new to the town, proper on the Sava river; the constructing even has a 360-degree remark deck of the town
- Quite annoyingly, the lodge will take up the primary 11 flooring of the constructing, so don’t anticipate to learn from the views afforded from the highest of the skyscraper (so this received’t be like the brand new Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur)
- The St. Regis Belgrade will function a signature restaurant named SAVANT Brasserie, a patisserie named Rise, and the St. Regis Bar, a signature outlet at the entire model’s properties
- The lodge will function a St. Regis Spa, an indoor pool and jacuzzi, and a 24/7 health middle
- Entry degree rooms on the lodge will likely be properly sized, at 430 sq. toes (40 sq. meters)
You’ll find some renderings of the property under.
The St. Regis ought to (by far) be the most effective internationally branded lodge in Belgrade. Town actually doesn’t have every other true worldwide luxurious properties. There’s a Hyatt Regency that’s pretty respectable, and there’s additionally Metropol Palace, which used to a Luxurious Assortment property, however is now impartial. Arguably the town’s greatest lodge is presently the Sq. 9 Belgrade, and that’s an impartial property.
St. Regis Belgrade charges & factors necessities
What are charges like on the St. Regis Belgrade? That is an attention-grabbing property, because it actually has no competitor among the many worldwide chain motels presently within the metropolis. Nevertheless, Belgrade is definitely an inexpensive metropolis by worldwide requirements, so there’s worth available should you’re coming from elsewhere.
Presently I see charges beginning at round €350-450 per evening, relying on the time of yr, day of week, and many others. That’s roughly in keeping with what I’d have anticipated.
If you will guide a money keep at any St. Regis, I’d extremely advocate doing so by means of the Marriott STARS program, so you may obtain complimentary breakfast, a $100 property credit score, a room improve, early check-in and late check-out (topic to availability), and a welcome amenity.
The Marriott STARS fee needs to be equal to no matter the usual versatile fee is when paying money. That may add fairly a little bit of worth, particularly on a brief keep.
When you’re trying to redeem Marriott Bonvoy factors, award pricing is probably fairly engaging. I presently see charges beginning at simply 30,000 factors per evening, and naturally you may get a fifth evening free on redemptions. Based mostly on my valuation of 0.7 cents per Bonvoy level, redeeming factors is a strong worth in lots of conditions.
Backside line
The St. Regis Belgrade is accepting reservations for stays as of November 2, 2024. This new property will certainly be the most effective internationally branded luxurious property within the metropolis, so it’s cool that it will belong to a significant lodge loyalty program. I’m wanting ahead to trying out this property sooner or later, although realistically I’ll in all probability wait till subsequent summer season.
