But given the partners’ equally enduring legacies, rich heritage and effortless elegance embedded in their respective DNAs, this joint venture becomes increasingly likely.

“This experience is designed to be more than just a vacation, it’s a modern American road trip, shaped not by an itinerary but by instinct, curiosity, and the everlasting romance of discovery,” Beatriz said in a statement.
In our opinion, this partnership is written in the stars. Saemo numbers The Beatrice operated in the circa 1887 Exchange Building, and Hartmann, owned by Samsonite, launched a line of trunks in 1877.
Hartman’s dedication to craftsmanship is evident in every stitch, timeless silhouette, and choice of materials, but The Beatrice’s attention to detail extends from the lineup of cocktails served at the members-only rooftop bar to the special amenities found throughout the spacious, sunny rooms (heated toilet seats, bidets, towel warmers, bathroom speakers, and “fit kits” for guests looking to stay on track with their health goals).
But if you don’t plan to visit this state known for its Gilded Age mansions, intellectual property, endless coastline, and colonial significance anytime soon, at least “From Road to Anywhere” We urge you to stock up on Hartmann’s latest travel solutions.
In addition to the featured products mentioned above, Hartmann has literally responded to the demands of its most discerning customers by rolling out its best-selling Reserve Carry-On to complement the new Reserve Carry-All Tote and Reserve Waist Bag.

“Created with the same uncompromising standards that have defined Hartman for nearly 150 years, this collection is designed for the modern woman who travels on her own terms,” said Nicole Adrians, Hartman’s senior director of marketing.
