Every booking you make at a Plus Program hotel will be packed with privileges that pay for themselves in as little as one stay. Best of all, you can book as many Plus stays as you want, for whomever you want. Tablet Hotels was added to the Michelin family in 2018 when it merged with the MICHELIN Guide and became the source of the hotel selection. Adaptive reuse of century-old downtown buildings into dining destinations is a hot trend right now, with NYC import La Grande Boucherie having just debuted nearby inside the old Federal-American National Bank Building. Per the NY Post, Ned NoMad opened with a $5,000-annual membership fee (plus an $1,500 initiation charge) and immediately attracted A-listers like Leonardo DiCaprio and Rihanna.

Lifestyle hotels — offerings like Marriott's Edition, Hilton's Motto and Canopy, Hyatt's Thompson Hotels and Accor's entire Ennismore arm featuring brands like The Hoxton and Delano — are now all about the wow factor. It's also like being inviting to the surrounding neighborhood and community. When Soho House first opened in London in the 1990s, the hotel world was all about boutique hotels — impervious properties that critics will say kept the lights too dim and walls too high.

The company also varies in terms of what size property a city might get. This stems from estimating how many members Soho House & Co. thinks it can get in a city within the first five years of opening. Cities like Nashville, Portland and Rome can likely bring in between 5,000 and 8,000 members, so they get larger properties, Carnie said. Not all these cities will likely get a Soho House in the next few years, but the CWH is a pretty reliable road map of what cities are leading contenders for where the company might eventually open a new location. The U.S. also is getting its first countryside Soho House with Grasmere House, a 250-acre property in Rhinebeck, New York, a two-hour drive or 2.5-hour train ride north from Soho House New York. There are now more Soho House locations in North America (14) than the brand's home base in the U.K.
The Latest
Members-only clubs have long been the social method of choice for the who's who in cities like London, but the phenomenon has been catching on in New York. As the pandemic continues to change the ways we go out, the rise of private clubs only continues to grow. Look to the upcoming Mexico City location as an example of the Soho House leadership team's strategy to ensure people still want to get into those 45-and-counting locations. After all, those potential guests could easily go to a lifestyle hotel nearby that doesn't come with the stress of needing to get off the waitlist. Up in NYC, the Ned is nestled in the 167-room NoMad hotel and features dining establishments the public can also enjoy.
Soho House is over: Members ‘only go because everything else is closed’ as Wall Street bets on collapse
A second gallery will showcase all-local artists either born, raised, or trained here, with commissions ranging from “museum-level names” to rising talent. The Ned comes from Soho House founder Nick Jones and billionaire investor Ron Burkle, whose public company Soho House & Co Inc. oversees both global brands. Meet Ned’s Club Washington D.C., an elite downtown club where members will mix and mingle across three upper floors formerly home to iconic institutions Riggs Bank and American Security and Trust Company (734 15th Street NW). The Ned, birthed in 2017 by a pair of Soho House bigwigs as “a space for the discerning” in London, expanded to NYC and Qatar’s capital of Doha in 2022. Will be its first club-only location that caters exclusively to members. “I love it because I’m a creative director and it’s a chance for me to network… and they have fun parties,” one pro-Soho source said.
The schedule for the cinema and any special events is posted throughout the building. If the understated entrance of Soho House is meant to throw off general bypassers, then it succeeds. The club was founded in London in the '90s, and British influences extend to the interior decor as well. Since opening its first American location in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District back in 2003, Soho House has opened 14 other clubs in eight other US cities, a small portion of its 40 clubs globally. As for the design, it will “reference the romanticism of the nearby woodlands and incorporate natural elements from the historic Roycrofters arts & crafts movement in the 1800s,” according to press materials.

"It's not a money club. It's a club for creatives. It's got a huge diversity and inclusive part of the membership," Jones said. "You know, a club I want to go into is a club where I look like the odd person out." Brands like SoulCycle went the way of Icarus in growing extraordinarily fast and losing its cool factor in the process. Soho House doesn't appear to be in a rush to flood cities with an array of new locations within blocks of one another. Yet, Soho House & Co. — the parent company of Soho House as well as other offerings, including The Saguaro and hotel chains The Ned and The Line — this week celebrates its footprint on the other side of the pond.

When NeueHouse discovered the space, they saw it as a way to provide the nightlife element to their existing community-forward mission. One source in the marketing business explained Soho house is “domestically dead but internationally on fire” — and the European spots have been the reason he’s held onto a membership. In December 2023, Soho House announced it was no longer admitting new members in New York, LA, or London after locations became too crowded and service suffered. But New Yorkers are skeptical that it will bring the club back to life.

Members under the age of 27 in New York City pay about $204 per month to access all Soho House locations, according to the company's website. That's less than a monthly all-access membership to the luxury gym chain Equinox. The Soho House has 30 rooms that all went through a major renovation in 2013.
(Fans of Sex and the City may remember when Samantha sneaked into the club to use this pool.) There's a salad bar serving healthy fare, and servers make the rounds delivering bottled water or colorful cocktails. No timeline has been announced yet for the Rhinebeck estate, but several other locations have sent out their save the dates, proving how the brand is extending its reach. Marking Soho House’s Latin American debut, Soho House Mexico City will open this month in a Colonia Juárez historic casa, followed by Soho House Portland — the first in the Pacific Northwest — in November and Soho House São Paulo in December. Miami Pool House in Magic City’s artsy Wynwood area is currently in preview mode, while Soho House Charleston in the French Quarter is on the books for 2024. Twenty years ago, the private members’ club and hotel for creatives, Soho House, made its American debut in New York City's Meatpacking District, ringing in a new era of cool and cachet. After all, even before it opened its doors, Sex and the City filmed the now-famous rooftop pool scene here, immediately cementing Soho House into pop culture.
Safety is also top of mind at Zero Bond, which opened in 2020 and has recently become the hotspot du jour, serving as a date night venue for Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson and victory party tour stop for Mayor Eric Adams. The club, located on Bond Street in NoHo, is filled with about $15 million of art from the likes of Robert Mapplethorpe and Andy Warhol, and features an omakase bar, and grill and club menus across 20,000 feet of space. Soho House won a massive following by turning the private members club model upside down. Instead of a stuffy place charging exorbitant membership fees, the ethos of Soho House was to offer something at a value that creative types could enjoy. Grasmere House is expected to have a similar vibe as Soho House's more refined U.K.
These hotels might have dominated tabloid gossip pages for celebrity hot spots, but they weren't the most inviting. Still, you'll find plenty of social media posts regarding overcrowded clubs. Airlines tackled this with their airport lounges by limiting who could get in. Don't expect Soho House to raise membership rates to address its own crowding concerns. The announcement of Grasmere House comes as Soho House & Co. announced a '20 Houses by 2025' commitment for North America.
Those who choose to stay here pay steep prices not just for the rooms but for access to the private enclave -- in other words, Floor Six. This is where the club space is located with a restaurant, bar, and modern art collection. There's a buzz throughout most of the day, from breakfast (brunch on weekends) until the wee hours when the late-night menu is served. Attractive movers and shakers working on laptops, impressing colleagues, or dining at a number of chic sitting areas are omnipresent. Members are "creative" types, while Wall Street types, supposedly, aren't welcome to join, but that doesn't mean that Soho House has an absence of monetary worth.
The new threat to its finances came earlier this month from Wall Street research company Glass House, a shortseller which said it believed the company’s shares could eventually become worthless. Amusingly, when I was on a recent tour of the Rome Edition, I asked a staffer there which hotels they saw as their biggest competition. They noted they didn't necessarily view any local hotels as their competition. Addressing overcrowding is something the Soho House leadership team takes "very seriously," Jones added.
