Basic introduction of waldorf

Waldorf is a brand owned by Hilton Hotels Group.

New york waldorf, located at 49-50 Street, Park Avenue, new york, USA, is one of the most luxurious and famous five-star hotels in the world, with 42 floors.

Waldorf on the Bund is the only waldorf in China and Asia. In the next two to three years, Waldorf's city hotels and resorts will open in Beijing and Hainan.

Whether in Beijing, Shanghai, Orlando, Berlin or Amsterdam, there are several Waldorf lounges with the same name. Why do these lounges use the same name?

This will start with Waldorf Astoria in new york. 1893, William Waldorf invited the famous designer Henry Hardenbergh to design the first waldorf on Fifth Avenue. Four years later, Henry Hardenbergh built a 17-story Astoria Hotel next to waldorf for Waldorf's cousin John Jacob Astor IV. Later, Henry Hardenbergh suggested building a 300-foot marble corridor between the two hotels to connect them. This corridor connecting the two hotels has become an eternal symbol of waldorf, new york. In the future, this corridor will be transformed into a lounge, a gathering place for celebrities from new york and even the world, which will be passed down in Waldorf Astoria all over the world.
