The power of passion

At the heart of The Red Carnation Collection is our people and their passion and commitment to creating memorable guest experiences. Our story began 35 years ago… Driven by our Founder and President Beatrice Tollman's lifelong affair with the world of hospitality, and celebrating her husband's signature flower, The Red Carnation Hotel Collection came to life.
