When we opened our first hotel in Bermuda in 2017, Stephen King had fallen in love with an island with a distinct charm, a place of mystery and curiosity. His dream was to bring a high-end luxury hotel, residences and world class cuisine to the island. He built The Loren, a masterpiece of architectural harmony it is nestled into the natural habitat and commands the most incredible sea view with guests enjoying impeccable service and quality in a relaxed, serene, and culturally stimulating environment.
