Jean-Michel Gathy invites you to see these iconic hotel openings this year

The ‘living legend’ Jean-Michel Gathy, an award-winning architect and interior designer with more than 40 years of experience in the hospitality industry. He is one of the big three core architects, alongside the late Ed Tuttle and the late Kerry Hill, who established the DNA blueprint of Aman Resorts from its formative days.

His upcoming projects for 2024 include the launch of One&Only One Za’abeel Dubai, the first-ever vertical urban resort from ultra-luxury hospitality brand One&Only, Cheval Blanc Seychelles in the heart of the Indian Ocean as the sixth Cheval Blanc Maison and many more.

What’s Next?

His foundational desire for comfort has shaped his design process, and through his experiences, sought to create a level of comfort reminiscent of a home away from home. From Tokyo to Seychelles, here are four iconic hotel openings, designed by Jean-Michel Gathy, for 2024:-

Janu Tokyo

Translated as ‘soul’ in Sanskrit, Janu Tokyo opening in March 2024 will deliver a spirited social scene in contrast to sister brand Aman’s whisper-quiet seclusion, designed to offer balance between personal fulfilment and relaxation, imbuing an energy that appeals to those desiring greater purpose and inner contentment.

Aman Nai Lert Bangkok

Featuring the 52-suite Aman Nai Lert Bangkok hotel, Aman Residences and a newly confirmed Aman Club, the property anticipated to open in 2024 will be nestled in the tropical gardens of the historic Nai Lert Park in the heart of Bangkok.

Cheval Blanc Seychelles

On top of that, conceived as a “Home”, the newest Cheval Blanc opening in Q3 2024 is designed as an ode to creole traditions, paying homage to its natural surroundings. The Maison will offer 52 villas, each with a private swimming pool, and beautiful beachfront, hillside, or tropical jungle views.

One&Only One Za’abeel Dubai

Located in the beating heart of one of the world’s most dynamic cities and the first-ever vertical urban resort from ultra-luxury hospitality brand One&Only, the just opened outpost, One Za’abeel Dubai is an architectural icon that connects the untold charms of Dubai with the palpable energy of the most futuristic city on Earth.
