Hotel That Lends Guests Luxury Bags

Yes, you heard that right. Free bags (on loan). And not just any bags—we’re talking Hermès Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and more.

The Hotel

Who’s ready to plan a trip to Miami? That’s where SLS South Beach is, the hotel that’s constantly pushing the limits of luxury. Forget the classic amenities like pools and chargers (though those are available too). The ultimate luxury experience is SLS’s game, and, fittingly, they’re the first hotel in the U.S. to offer bags as an amenity.

SLS has teamed up with Vivrelle, a luxury accessories membership club that lets you borrow jewelry and handbags (starting at $99/month, though that’s irrelevant to hotel guests). So, not enough room for your Birkin in your luggage? Or maybe you didn’t bring the perfect bag for your outfit? No worries, just borrow one. Vivrelle’s stash of bags is your oyster.

How does it work?

Bags are available to all guests of the hotel on a first-come-first-served basis. All you have to do is show up and see what’s available. (As such, we have a feeling the Birkins might be harder to get your hands on…)

Ultimately, your bag closet only grows (temporarily) with a stay at SLS. Not only will you get to pair new luxury bags with your outfit, but you’ll also be able to try out a bag you’ve been wondering about. Sometimes, it’s hard to get a sense for how a bag feels (walking around, going out to dinner, etc.) at the boutique. Does it fit into your lifestyle? Now you’ll get the chance to see. And what better place to look glam than South Beach?
