Crockfords, Resorts World Genting - Honouring a Legacy of Luxury Since 1828
A Legacy of Distinction, Reimagined Above the Clouds
For nearly two centuries, the name Crockfords has been associated with prestige, exclusivity, and exceptional hospitality. From its origins in the distinguished circles of 19th-century London to its modern expression across some of the world's most renowned destinations, the brand's journey reflects an enduring commitment to excellence.
Today, at Resorts World Genting, that legacy continues to evolve—honouring its rich heritage while redefining luxury for a new generation of discerning travellers.
1828
The Birth of a Legend
The Crockfords story began in the heart of London in 1828 with an extraordinary man named William Crockford.
Born into humble beginnings as the son of a fishmonger, Crockford possessed an exceptional gift for mathematics, probability, and understanding people. Through remarkable entrepreneurial instinct, he established Crockford's Club on the prestigious St. James's Street in Mayfair—then the epicentre of British high society.
Designed by some of the era's finest architects and celebrated for its lavish interiors, impeccable service, and renowned French cuisine, Crockford's quickly became one of the most exclusive private clubs in Europe.
19th Century
The Gold Standard of Exclusivity
Throughout the Victorian era, Crockford's name became synonymous with distinction.
Its reputation extended beyond London, earning recognition across Europe as a destination associated with sophistication, exclusivity, and exceptional hospitality. Guests entered an environment where every detail was carefully considered and every experience thoughtfully curated.
As society evolved, the Crockfords name continued to be associated with high standards of service and refinement, qualities that would become enduring hallmarks of the brand.
2004-2006
Stewardship of an Icon
More than 175 years after the founding of Crockford's Club, a new chapter began.
In 2004, Genting International Plc entered into a landmark 50:50 joint venture with Stanley Leisure, then the United Kingdom's largest casino operator and owner of the world-renowned Crockfords brand.
The partnership marked Genting's first formal association with Crockfords and established a connection between one of Britain's most recognised luxury gaming brands and one of Asia's leading hospitality groups.
2005
On 25 January 2005, the joint venture between Genting International and Stanley Leisure was formally completed.
The collaboration strengthened Genting's presence in the United Kingdom while deepening its relationship with the Crockfords brand. It also marked an important step in the company's growing international hospitality and leisure portfolio.
2006
In 2006, the iconic Crockfords brand became part of the Genting family following Genting International's acquisition of Stanley Leisure Plc.
The milestone ushered in a new era, preserving the brand's rich heritage while expanding its legacy through Genting's world-class hospitality portfolio.
2010 - 2015
Expanding the Legacy to Singapore
Crockfords' evolution into a global luxury hospitality brand reached a significant milestone with Crockfords Tower at Resorts World Sentosa.
Designed as an exclusive all-suite retreat, it embodied the brand's signature values of privacy, personalised service and refined luxury. Guests enjoyed bespoke hospitality, spacious suites and convenient access to world-renowned attractions such as Universal Studios Singapore.
Recognised as Asia's Leading Luxury All-Suite Hotel by the World Travel Awards (2014–2015), Crockfords Tower reinforced the enduring prestige of the Crockfords name and its successful expansion beyond its historic London origins.
2017 - 2019
Bringing Mayfair to the Clouds at Resorts World Genting
Opened as part of the landmark Genting Integrated Tourism Plan (GITP), Crockfords became the pinnacle of luxury hospitality within Resorts World Genting.
Perched 6,000 feet above sea level amidst the cool mountain air of Genting Highlands, Crockfords was intentionally conceived as an intimate sanctuary. With approximately 140 carefully curated rooms and suites, the experience prioritised privacy, exclusivity and personalised service.cc
