art’otel cares for your hair across Europe, announcing Global Partnership, Styling Channel and Roadshow with KEVIN.MURPHY

Good hair days have arrived at art’otel as the brand announces new partnership with luxury hair styling brand, KEVIN.MURPHY. Across London, Amsterdam and Rome, guests staying at art’otel properties in all rooms, suites and public spaces, will enjoy the KEVIN.MURPHY REPAIR.ME hotel collection, exclusively distributed by guest essentials provider VANITY GROUP.

A key pillar to the partnership is the recently launched art’otel x KEVIN.MURPHY Styling Channel. Designed to deliver enviable locks and fashion-forward styles, guests will become session stylists of their own with step-by-step guides created by the leading haircare and styling brand available via their in-room TV, Wonderpass app or across art’otel websites. 

The styling channel, filmed on location at five-star art’otel Battersea Power Station, and available at art’otel Amsterdam, art’otel London Battersea Power Station, art’otel London Hoxton and art’otel Rome Piazza Sallustio, features five bespoke styling guides. The styles include: 

  • KILLER.TWIRLS – a curl enhancing style for wavy, curly, and coily hair types
  • ROUGH.RIDER – a style that incorporates texture and volume in shorter hair
  • FREE.HOLD – for a glossy, natural looking style 
  • POWDER.PUFF – a volumizing style with movement
  • EVER.SMOOTH – your guide to the perfect, smooth blow dry 

The exceptional haircare doesn’t stop there. A Styling Roadshow planned to tour Europe in celebration of the latest art’otel opening: five-star art’otel Rome Piazza Sallustio kicks off this Summer. On select dates in July and August, locals and guests of art’otel’s flagship hotels in Rome, London and Amsterdam will have the opportunity to experience a pro-styling session with KEVIN.MURPHY hair stylists. Whilst the styling sessions will be complimentary, there will be an option to donate what you can to the Little Princess Trust – a charity that provides wigs to children and young people who have lost their hair to cancer. Keep an eye on @artotel socials for exact dates. As Fashion Weekdescends on key European cities later this year, stay tuned for further pop-ups from this exciting partnership.

Lastly, a brand wide creative competition “Dream and Colour” will soon be launched, calling all budding artists, guests and followers to design a unique art pattern that could become the next art’otel signature tote bag design used across all art’otel locations. Keep an eye on @artotel socials for the latest updates.
