Michael and his wife were searching for a much needed vacation as covid rules across the world began to subside. They dreamed of staying in a beautiful castle, but the search was rather difficult and the historic properties were particularly hard to find. After hours and hours of research, Michael finally found the perfect property… a property where his family lineage could actually be traced! The decision to book that property was a no brainer. This experiential feeling at the interaction of exploration and history lead him to find co-founders with deep and rich experience (40+ years) in travel and hospitality to start Storied, a collection of the most richly historic and enjoyable places to stay in the world.
Our mission is to build the finest historic castle and estate hotel collection while empowering our members through community. Storied will also enable our guests access to the most unique stays and experiences, leaving lasting memories and a deeper knowledge of history.
Storied Collection was launched by former travel executives Justin Hauge, Michael Goldin, and Rob Paterson with help from seasoned hospitality veterans from Ritz Carlton, Hilton and Design Hotels rounding out the Advisory Team.
Starting his career in travel as Airbnb's 13th hire, Justin built and led customer experience and sales teams throughout Airbnb's ascension for over 10 years, gaining key insights into the emerging trends in the industry. Justin also invests in the next tech unicorns in hospitality tech and web3 via his angel fund Inkwell Ventures.
