Curating time, together with the world's most remarkable hotels.
Who we are, who our members are, and what a place in our curation is worth to your house. We curate places, trips and experiences for members who value clear decisions and trusted judgment.
Free editorial listing. Commission-free direct hotel value.
In-context recommendations convert because the decision already carries trust.
Curation can increase choice probability when the guest is deciding under uncertainty.
Illustrative spending capacity of a single target member per stay.
Every house in our portfolio is chosen by hand and earns its place through editorial judgment.
The List answers the near moment, tonight and the days ahead. Concierge places your house inside future itineraries whenever it fits.
Selected houses may appear across newsletters, editorial notes, city updates, social channels and private recommendations. One entry, several surfaces, all built on fit.
If you feel your house belongs in that circle, the next step is simple: a written exchange to confirm fit and coordinate possible dates for a curatorial visit.
The short answers to what hotel partners usually ask us. The full economics, from direct value to broader hospitality margins, are in our piece on why luxury hotels partner with a private members club.
What is Club COSMO?
Club COSMO is a private membership for curating time. Personal intelligence connects members with human-curated places, moments and journeys that fit them personally. Every house earns its place through personal relevance. The longer answer lives at What is Club COSMO.
Who are the members?
Established professionals, 25 to 50, settled, short of time and short of the certainty that a stay will be worth the hours it costs. They choose on fit, travel deliberately, and nearly all joined by personal nomination. What they ask of a house: the detail done right, the atmosphere that holds, a stay remembered for good.
What does it cost our house?
Listing is free and editorially independent. Direct hotel value remains commission-free, and every stay is booked at the standard rate you already keep. Earned trust gives the listing its value.
Why does it matter for your house?
The best hotels are often missed because guests default to the name they already know. Curation changes that. When Club COSMO recommends a house, the member arrives with trust already built. The choice feels personal, considered and low-risk. For the hotel, that means qualified guests, stronger fit and bookings driven by relevance and rate integrity.
How does a house join The List?
The curatorial visit is the second stage of our selection. Our curation team, usually one or two people, stays as a member would: booking, arriving, sleeping, eating, asking, noticing. We confirm what the research suggested and gather the visual and written material needed to represent the house with care across Club COSMO. Only then do we decide whether it should become part of our circle.
Where can the house appear?
A house that fits enters the club's curation database, the surface members turn to when deciding where to go. Beyond the listing, selected houses may appear across member-facing communication: newsletters, editorial notes, city updates, social channels and private recommendations.
What do you need from us first?
To begin, we only need the right contact on your side, a few highlights worth knowing before we arrive, and possible dates for a curatorial visit. We use that to shape the curation plan. Everything else is learned on site, in person, through the stay.
What is the 77 percent acceptance number?
It is our in-context recommendation acceptance rate: members accept recommendations because the decision already carries trust. We use it as an indicator of intent and fit. Revenue for each house remains determined by member decisions and availability.
What is the $22,458 member value?
EMV, Expected Member Value, is an illustrative spending-capacity figure for a single target member per stay. It is calculated from the 77 percent in-context acceptance rate and a weighted average maximum trip spend of $29,167. Actual revenue depends on member decisions, availability and the individual stay.

1. Curation Lift: up to +21.7 percent, the choice-probability gain for a curated good over an equivalent uncurated one. Calibrated within the 15 to 25 percent range shown by causal field studies. Illustrative.
2. EMV, Expected Member Value, is approximately USD 22,458 per member, calculated by applying Club COSMO's 77 percent in-context acceptance rate to the weighted average maximum trip spend of an equally distributed target cohort, USD 29,167. It represents illustrative spending capacity. Actual revenue depends on member decisions, availability and the individual stay.
