THE LONDON EDITION
The London EDITION represents authentic comfort, extraordinary style and an exceptional level of service in a uniquely individual environment. Located in the Fitzrovia neighbourhood of central London, the property brings together the integrity and character of a historic building with a simple, sophisticated design sensibility to create a seamless blend of charisma and ease. With 173 guest rooms, a vibrant restaurant, multiple bars, event spaces, and meeting rooms, the hotel offers a dynamic social hub where guests and visitors can work, relax, and experience all the benefits of a home away from home.

WHAT DO EDITION LOOK FOR?
EDITION seeks employees who can personally represent the brand. Their attitude and personal style, coupled with their passion for service delivery, will bring the brand alive for each guest. EDITION is about an attitude and the way it makes you feel rather than the way it looks. The attitude comes alive to guests via their senses. The brand is unique with its modern visual appeal, music and scent.

EDITION's ground breaking concepts give a true competitive edge, product distinction and a huge advantage over what is currently offered in the hotel industry. Ian Schrager has given creative direction and has lent his vision for concept, design and marketing with Ritz Carlton's operational expertise which exemplifies world-class service. HOW DO I APPLY?
