Three steps to unlock better travel

III

What membership gets you

The club, working quietly
behind every stay.

EXCLUSIVE PERKS AND BENEFITS

We hold preferred status at over 1,800 of the world's finest hotels. That means complimentary upgrades, hotel credit, daily breakfast and late check out where available. 

A CONCIERGE WHO KNOWS YOU

We handle the planning, coordination and details most people never think to ask for. Every preference noted, every occasion remembered.

THE VIP TREATMENT

The details that make your stay feel personal. A warm welcome from the hotel fully briefed on your preferences. The difference between booked and expected. 

A RELATIONSHIP, NOT A TRANSACTION

We believe loyal relationships deserve to be recognised. Some of our members find that over time, travelling with us comes with a few unexpected extras. 

A CURATED MEMBERS NEWSLETTER

A monthly edit with hotels worth knowing about, the destinations worth watching and the openings worth booking before everyone else does. Everything you need to stay inspired.

NO FEES. EVER.

Luminari Club is completely free to members. We are paid by the hotels, not by you. We never mark-up your rate.

Why it's free

NO CATCH, JUST CONTEXT.

Luxury hotels pay a commission to trusted advisors who bring them the right guests. You pay the hotel its standard preferential rate; the hotel pays us for the introduction. We never mark up a room, never sell your data, never push a property because it pays more. Because we are compensated by the hotels rather than by you, our only incentive is to make sure every trip is worth coming back for.

Never a markup
You pay exactly the hotel's own best rate, not a cent more.
Never your data
We don't sell, rent, or trade a single thing about you.
Never for the money
We recommend a property because it's right, never because it pays more.
Questions

Before you apply.

Yes, genuinely. Membership costs nothing and we never add a fee or markup to your stay. You pay the hotel its standard best rate; the hotel pays us a commission for the introduction, exactly as the industry has worked for decades.
No. You book at the hotel's own best flexible rate, and arrive with added benefits on top: upgrades where available, breakfast, a credit, and late check-out priority. Same price, more care.
People who genuinely love great hotels and travel a few times a year. We're not chasing volume. Our team reviews every application personally to keep the club small and the recommendations honest. An invitation code moves you to the front.
Our craft is hotels, that's where the club's benefits and relationships live. We are working to bring flight booking soon.
By email. You write to your concierge, and they write back. It's deliberately simple.
We keep only what we need to look after you well, and we never sell, rent or trade it. Your preferences exist to make your stays better, nothing else. You can ask us to delete everything at any time.
