The same room, the same rate — and rather more besides.
Your stay is placed through 360 Private Travel, a Virtuoso member, and their preferred-partner programmes at the world’s leading hotels. It costs no more than booking direct; it simply arrives with rather more attached.
The published rate or better, never more — with the benefits on top.
Complimentary, at booking or on arrival, subject to availability.
Full breakfast for two, every morning of your stay.
Usually US$100 towards dining, the spa or the bar.
Early check-in and late checkout where the house can offer it.
You arrive as a known guest rather than a reservation number.
Benefits vary by property and are offered through the preferred-partner programmes of 360 Private Travel, who are the Virtuoso member; Edward & Co. is an independent agent for 360 Private Travel. Upgrades and check-in times are always subject to availability.
Luxury travel, in its many forms.
We advise across three areas we know well — exceptional ships at sea, the right hotel in the right place, and the journeys that ask a little more: safari, the great railways, private yachts and jets.
Luxury cruises
With extensive first-hand experience across the leading luxury lines, we advise on the differences that rarely appear in a deck plan — the ship, the suite, the itinerary and the season that suits you.
The new wave of owner-operated ships — Aman at Sea, the Four Seasons and Ritz-Carlton yachts — is a genuinely different proposition to the established luxury lines, and not always the better one. We will tell you which suits the week you have in mind.
Aman at Sea · Four Seasons Yachts · The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection · Silversea · Regent Seven Seas · Seabourn · Explora Journeys · Crystal · Ponant · Scenic Eclipse · Cunard Grills
Luxury hotels
We look past star ratings and marketing language to location, atmosphere and service — and whether a property is genuinely right for you. Through 360 we hold preferred-partner relationships that add value to the stay.
A grande dame and a modern house are different holidays in the same city. We know which category earns its premium in each, which floors to ask for, and where breakfast, an upgrade or a credit can be added at the published rate.
Claridge’s · The Connaught · Le Bristol Paris · Hôtel de Crillon · Cheval Blanc · The Peninsula · Aman · Passalacqua · La Mamounia · Belmond
Luxury adventures
The journeys that ask a little more and reward it — a private safari camp, a great railway, a chartered yacht or a private jet. The guide, the timing and the detail are what separate a journey you remember from one you merely took.
On safari the distinction that matters is a private concession rather than a national park: no other vehicles, no radios, and animals entirely unbothered. In Antarctica it is the ice class of the ship and the naturalists aboard. Neither leads the brochure.
The Okavango Delta · The Serengeti & Masai Mara · Antarctica & South Georgia · Svalbard · The Venice Simplon-Orient-Express · Rovos Rail · The Cyclades by yacht · Bhutan
Good advice is knowing what is worth considering.
Edward & Co. is an independent travel advisory built on experience, judgement and personal service. We take the time to understand how you like to travel before recommending where to go, how to get there and where to stay.
There is no catalogue to work through and no pressure to book. We narrow the choices, explain what we think works and arrange the details — through our established partner, 360 Private Travel — when you are ready. The business is deliberately small: you deal with one advisor, known to you throughout.
First-hand reviews of the ships, hotels and journeys behind the advice — so you can judge for yourself.
VISIT LUXURY REVIEWSSome prefer a call or an email; others would rather sit down and talk it through properly. I advise clients across the country by telephone, email or video — and for those in or near London, I am glad to meet in person, over coffee in Chelsea or somewhere that suits you better. You deal with one advisor throughout, who takes the time to learn how you like to travel. There is no separate advisory fee for arranging it.
