Sumptuous grays and neutrals in the lavish rooms create a seamless quality from door to sea, and subtle Asian details delight. Cantonese Shang Palace sets the standard for Istanbul dining, and the Turkish Bath experience is elevated at CHI spa.

The outdoor pool lets you swim alongside the Bosphorus while admiring a view of the palace and mosques at the same time.

Wanderlust, June 2026

There might be other luxurious heritage hotels set on the banks of the Bosphorus, but none of them have a view that can compete with The Peninsula's.

Conde Nast Traveler, May 2024

It's a modern Xanadu that sprawls across four lavish buildings - one a former nautical terminal that's now home to the most glamorous pool in Turkey, almost floating on the water - and gives amazing views across the Golden Horn.

Tatler, January 2024

Like any Peninsula it aims to join the ranks of the most luxurious hotels in town, and like just about any Peninsula, it succeeds; the rooms are ultra-luxe, and tastefully walk a fine line between contemporary international minimalism and classic Turkish ornament.

Unquestionably now the buzziest beach club in the area. Guests of the hotel will have priority access both to the restaurant and the beach.

Financial Times, HTSI, March 2026

Le Sirenuse, by the way, is generally acknowledged to have the best seafood restaurant in town.

Guide Michelin, February 2025

In the last 72 years, and over the course of three generations, the Sersales have so tangibly poured their love into this place that it has become one of the wonders of Italy.

Tatler, January 2024

Le Sirenuse in Positano remains a well-tailored pocket of extraordinary atmosphere and service, hotel time-travel at its best.

Condé Nast Travaler, December 2018

An exceptionally romantic candle-lit dining room, a shady pool terrace and small but beautifully presented spa make it particularly popular with honeymooners, well-heeled European couples, touring Americans and occasional celebrities.

The Telegraph, September 2017

Le Sirenuse is the place to stay within the Amalfi Coast. Owners Antonio and Carla Sersale can normally be found on the terrace, Champagne flutes in hand, at the centre of a smart, interesting crowd discussing fine art and literature.

Condé Nast Traveller (UK), March 2016

Le Sirenuse is ridiculously attractive. Enchanting, even. Breathtaking... For here is the view to end all views, of cascading pastel-coloured houses, of a neat arch of volcanic sand, of sea, sea, SEA, to the islands of the sirens, and beyond.

Hotels Own Introduction

A Dream in Positano
Le Sirenuse offers a front-row seat to the beauty and pleasures of Positano and the Amalfi Coast. As John Steinbeck observed during his 1953 visit, “Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone.” That dreamlike quality lives on at Le Sirenuse, where light, sea, and sky weave an unforgettable spell.

Rooms Bathed in Mediterranean Light
Each of the 58 rooms and suites is a luminous retreat, designed to reflect the brilliance of the Mediterranean. Whitewashed walls and ceilings—many with traditional cross-vaulted curves—are repainted each winter, ensuring a fresh canvas for every season. Crisp linens and soft cotton curtains filter the sunlight, creating spaces that feel serene, spotless, and timeless.

A Celebration of the Dolce Vita
In southern Italy, dining is more than a pleasure—it is a ritual. At Le Sirenuse, four restaurants embody this belief, offering settings as enchanting as the cuisine itself. Whether under jasmine-scented skies at lunch or as dusk paints the horizon in shades of violet and gold, every meal is a celebration of flavor, mood, and conviviality.

Wellness as a Way of Life
Here, wellbeing is woven into daily life. Guests can indulge in rejuvenating spa treatments, savor fresh seasonal Mediterranean dishes, or take part in the resort’s twice-yearly mountain fitness retreats. The swimming pool—an elegant work of art in itself—invites both relaxation and reflection. At Le Sirenuse, wellness is not simply a practice but a philosophy, one that nourishes body and soul alike.

Wanderlust, April 2025

With staff from various Mandarin Oriental properties globally having been brought in, the transition to MO has been smooth with similar levels of service and attention to detail that the brand is reputed for worldwide.

This landmark Abu Dhabi hotel draws tourists as well as guests to its extensive grounds, private beach and opulent interiors on the far western end of the Corniche.

The Telegraph, July 2019

The sheer size of the property, it's just over 3,000 feet, wing to wing, will have you wishing you left a trail of breadcrumbs to find your way back to your room (one of 394) as you explore the palace's 14 restaurants, private cinema, and more than 9,000,000 square feet of manicured gardens.

From the authentic tagines at the hotel’s traditional Moroccan restaurant to the excellent hammam, every moment at La Mamounia speaks to the city’s artistry and tradition.

Wanderlust, April 2026

Walking into La Mamounia verges on a religious experience for those who genuflect at the altar of high-end hotels.

50 Best, September 2024

The legendary hotel recently celebrated 100 years, and its next century is looking bright, thanks to a recent refurb that spruced up public spaces while adding a 20-seat cinema, a semi-secret wine bar, and a South Asian restaurant from chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten.

Travel + Leisure, July 2024

Think of La Mamounia as a Moroccan fantasy made real, a too-much-is-never-enough maximalist fever dream that just underwent another refresh during the pandemic.

Robb Report, July 2024

What truly sets La Mamounia apart is its legacy as a confluence of luxury, history, and Moroccan allure. Beyond a mere hotel, it’s an epic voyage—traversing eras of timeless elegance and contemporary grandeur.

Fodor's Travel, January 2024

Light and food are a constant theme. At dusk, tall, freestanding red lanterns guide you through the scented gardens to the different seating and restaurant areas. It's magical.

Financial Times, November 2020

Here is a hotel so synonymous with Marrakech, that its myths and legends are intrinsic to the city's glamorous bohemian history.

Condé Nast Travaller, December 2018

Perhaps it's the mix of French, Arabic, and English spoken in hushed tones, or the soaring coffered ceilings, or just the colonial richness that makes the bar at La Mamounia one of the sexiest drinking spots in the world.

Nowhere is as steeped in pop-culture romance as this icon of West 23rd street.

Tatler, January 2024

The Hotel Chelsea has always been more than a place to sleep. Before it shuttered in 2011, it had played host to some of New York City’s most colorful guests and residents for decades—many of them cultural icons.

Afar Magazine, March 2023

And what’s perhaps most impressive about the newly updated Chelsea is how much of this romance remains intact, even as it’s been updated for 21st-century boutique-hotel travelers.

A World Unto Itself

Enough has been written about—and perhaps more written within—the Chelsea to satisfy history buffs around the world. It is the hotel’s uniquely rich past that has made it iconic. However, those familiar with it don’t define it by its history, but rather by its ever-evolving and unmistakable otherness. Solid, sumptuous, eccentric yet beautiful, the Chelsea is a decadent palace of peculiarity.

The Spa at Hotel Chelsea

Perched on the penthouse level, the Spa at Hotel Chelsea is a light-filled oasis featuring a private terrace garden, offering a tranquil escape.

Café Chelsea

Inspired by the long tradition of French bistro dining, Café Chelsea offers a robust all-day menu, blending café classics with contemporary takes on traditional French dishes.

Claridge’s Bar in the heart of Mayfair, London, is a landmark of understated Art Deco elegance designed by David Collins Studio. It’s the ideal destination for drinkers whose modus operandi is Martini, fries, Champagne, caviar, repeat — a fashionable haven for hedonists who like to role-play Marilyn Monroe while out on the town.

Food & Wine Magazine, April 2026

This grande dame of the London hotel scene is a beloved, determinedly British institution that’s been part of English life for decades, yet it retains a youthful vigor.

Rob Report, July 2024

Claridge’s is no longer the only show in town, but it’s with good reason that every other heritage hotel in London still sees it as the benchmark.

Conde Nast Traveler, January 2024

Rooms come in traditional or Art Deco style—the latter are much more fun and in keeping with the rest of the hotel.

Conde Nast Traveler, February 2023

One of London’s most glamorous and longest-established hotels and a home-from-home for visiting royalty, heads of state and celebrities, offering kid-glove hospitality, excellent food and luxurious bedrooms. The service is near-faultless and the price-tag is in line with its Mayfair location.

The Telegraph, January 2023

The well-heeled have been meeting and eating at Claridge's for generations, and the tradition continues in the original art deco public spaces of this super-glamorous London institution.

Some hotels lose their luster after a while. Others, like the Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok, only get better with age.

Conde Nast Traveler, January 2025

Originally a 12-room affair, this world-famous hotel now has 393 rooms and suites over several wings, multiple restaurants and bars, a spa with a global reputation and a riverside terrace restaurant serving what is arguably Bangkok’s best breakfast.

50 Best, September 2024

This hotel is loved for its grandeur, exceptional restaurants (from dim sum to Michelin-starred French cuisine) and superb staff, many of whom have worked here for decades. Breakfast on the terrace is one of the world’s finest hotel experiences, where you can watch rice barges drift by while tucking into Thai noodles or truffle scrambled eggs.

The Telegraph, September 2024

A long-time reader favorite, this heritage property traces its history back nearly 150 years — but offers the contemporary amenities today’s travelers demand, including a dozen restaurants and bars, a terrific spa, and thoughtfully curated excursions (a bike tour in the nearby neighborhood) and activities (fitness classes with a muay Thai expert).

Travel + Leisure, July 2024

Bangkok's first hotel is still, despite some extremely stiff competition from any number of more recent arrivals, its best as well as one of the finest examples anywhere on earth of a grande dame that knows exactly how to grow old gracefully.

Condé Nast Traveler, December 2018

Do pull on some fancy gear for dinner at the gloriously camp, newly revamped La Normandie, before promptly disrobing for a before-bed QMS facial at the sultry new spa. To paraphrase Noe?l Coward: 'It is a lovely place and we are fonder of it than ever.'

Tatler, January 2017

As Bangkok's grande dame gets ever more ravishing with age, its stunning waterside spa does facials that leave you with the complexion of a toddler... All in all, the Mandarin Oriental offers a masterclass in growing old gracefully.

Condé Nast Traveller (UK), November 2016

The city's oldest and best-known hotel has been frequented by Thai royalty and glitterati, as well as a long roster of sports and film stars... though it's facing some stiff competition from recently opened luxury hotels, this venerable place just seems to get better with age.

Frommer's, June 2016

It would be a shame for any visitor to come to Bangkok and miss the splendor of the Mandarin Oriental.

When Ayla Emiroğlu arrived in Bodrum in 1977, the town was little more than a collection of simple houses, a few cars, and stray cats wandering its quiet streets. It had been thousands of years since Homer spoke of the "wine-dark sea" of the Aegean, but the peninsula—adorned with fragrant orange and lime trees—still retained its timeless charm. There was an air of faded elegance where the blazing sunlight met the deep blues of the sea and sky.

"Bodrum was my freedom," says Emiroğlu, the captivating owner of Maçakızı, the hotel that played a key role in turning this once-sleepy town into a hotspot for the global elite. Today, guests at Maçakızı can indulge in a menu lovingly crafted by the talented Chef Aret Sahakyan, offering a delectable array of fresh Mediterranean dishes alongside beloved Turkish classics.

Few hotels manage to become instant icons, but the newest property from Grand Hotel Tremezzo owner Valentina De Santis has pulled it off just a year after she rebooted a private villa from the 1780s on the shores of Lake Como as this 24-room hotel.

Robb Report, July 2024

Rooted in Georgian heritage, The Newt is defined by its honey-hued limestone buildings, home to the Hobhouse family for over 200 years. Hadspen and the Farmyard are nestled among orchards, lakes, and woodland, embodying the care lavished upon them over the last three centuries. Just beyond the cyder orchards, a short distance from Hadspen, a former dairy farm offers a serene retreat amid grazing livestock and ancient oaks.

Farmyard Retreat

The original farm buildings, with their golden patina, house charming rooms, a pool, bar, snug, and an all-day kitchen. Enjoy complimentary drinks at the Garner Bar, or take a bike or buggy to explore the gardens and spa at Hadspen.

Unwind in the spa’s indoor-outdoor pool, steam room, sauna, and treatment areas. Reconnect with nature in the Medieval Herb garden, indulge in a manicure, or experience couples' mud therapy. For extra relaxation, enjoy a traditional hammam washdown. If you seek more activity, stretch out in the gym while watching gardeners tend to the vegetables destined for the dinner plate.

With 1,300 square metres of lounging space, it offers panoramic views of the city’s rooftops and the iconic Koutoubia Mosque.

The signature restaurant, Brasserie 1930 presents a portrait of excellent Australian dining sketched with local oysters, fish, beef, poultry, vegetables and wine while the central Aperture offers all-day dining and an Australian version of high tea (teas blended with bush ingredients) under an expansive skylight.

Delighting with Edwardian Baroque-style architecture, the lobby truly takes your breath away—think chic marble tiling, rich velvet armchairs, and vaulted steel entryway doors, original to the property. The inviting art deco design means stepping foot into this hotel instantly transports you away from the bustle of the city and back in time.

Fodor's Travel, January 2025

The Capella Sydney feels like an oasis amid the city’s vibrant harbor front, even though it’s just steps from the iconic Opera House.

Distinguished by the passion of its owners, Plaza Athénée is perfect in every detail.

Today, though a comprehensive multi-million-dollar renovation has updated the surface of the hotel, its basic character remains: that of traditional opulence side-by-side with fashionable modernity.

Guide Michelin, May 2024

This 'Palace' hotel (a notch up from five-star) drips with luxury on one of Paris' most fashionable streets, close to the Champs Elysees. Expect opulent interiors, a Dior spa and a Michelin-starred restaurant.

The Telegraph, July 2019

Sumptuous rooms enchant with designer furnishings and luxurious conveniences... Alain Ducasse's signature restaurant, a contender for best restaurant in Paris, was given a glittering new look that reflects the hotel's haute-couture grandeur, with haute cuisine to match.

Everything that has made the Plaza Athénée one of the world's most distinguished hotels is still there... But after a top-to-bottom renovation, this revered property is now also on the cutting edge of Parisian hotel design.

Estelle Manor's groundbreaking new spa in the Cotswolds, a recreation of a Roman villa, harks back to the sociability and ritual of ancient times.

Everything is celebratory of the good life, with a no-expenses-spared mélange of textured interiors, elaborate food and clubbable service. It’s hard to find a country-club set-up that matches it in terms of sheer ambition and breadth of vision – and competition is stiff on the cusp of the Cotswolds.

Traditional but unstuffy, austere yet playful – this legendary address is full of surprises. The hotel was opened by Otto Richard Goring in 1910 and remains family-owned, building on a legacy of superlative service, lavishly appointed rooms and royal connections.

1 / 6

Over the years the Marbella Club has managed to keep its original spirit alive as it has gracefully expanded to become one of the most iconic luxury resorts in the Mediterranean.

Conde Nast Traveler, January 2025

There's nowhere more romantic, nor out-and-out fun, than the Marbella Club.

Tatler, January 2025

Most strikingly, the Marbella Club retains the atmosphere of a princely residence, rather than a commercial hotel — within the resort’s gates are acres of manicured tropical gardens, and the rooms are scattered among a number of low-slung buildings, the more exclusive villas hidden away behind private gardens and pools.

Michelin Guide, July 2024

Against the backdrop of the Sierra Blanca Mountains and Rock of Gibraltar, guests are transported in time at this legendary property. What was once one of Europe’s most famous celebrity beach haunts in the 1960s and 1970s still attracts an alluring crowd with its lush gardens and tranquil design.

Travel + Leisure, July 2024

Over time it has evolved from a string of Californian-motel-inspired lodges into a rarefied village anchored by the beach. Yet despite it's growth, it has maintained the intimacy of a member's club.

Conde Nast Traveler, February 2023

From its humble beginnings, the Marbella Club has certainly flourished into a beautiful being. It still serves as a glamorous playground for children and adults alike, with Prince Alfonso's joie de vivre still very much alive.

Tucked away within the breathtaking Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Mexico’s largest protected areas, Casa Chablé offers a secluded retreat where nature’s beauty and tranquility take center stage. Here, between a serene lagoon and the turquoise Caribbean Sea, under vast, open skies, time slows, inviting you to fully embrace the present and rediscover inner harmony.

Sian Ka’an, meaning “origin of the sky” in Mayan, is a place of unparalleled natural wonder. In this untouched paradise, the rustling of lush foliage, the calls of tropical birds, and the rhythmic waves create a symphony of serenity. Casa Chablé was designed to exist in harmony with this pristine environment, honoring the traditional Yucatecan style while seamlessly blending sustainability with refined luxury.

With just ten rooms and private bungalows, the resort remains intimately connected to its surroundings. Every detail, envisioned by renowned interior designer Paulina Morán, reflects a deep respect for nature. Using locally sourced materials, she has created elegant spaces that balance modern comfort with eco-conscious design, fostering an atmosphere of effortless sophistication and peace.

At K’ÚUM, the resort’s signature restaurant, dining is a sensory experience. Each dish celebrates Mexico’s rich culinary heritage, blending local flavors with global inspiration to create artful, innovative plates. Every meal is an invitation to savor, indulge, and connect with the essence of this extraordinary place.

A Historic Transformation in Stockholm

Ett Hem began its life as a private residence in 1910, crafted by individuals with a deep appreciation for beauty. This elegant townhouse, nestled in a tranquil residential area of Stockholm, has been thoughtfully transformed into a boutique hotel that honors its rich heritage.

A Testament to Visionary Design

The successful conversion of this home into a hotel is a remarkable achievement, largely due to the vision and dedication of interior designer Ilse Crawford, who has been involved in the project from the outset. The process of transformation has been both intricate and delicate, with owner Jeanette Mix committed to preserving the building's unique character while ensuring it meets the needs of contemporary travelers.

An Inviting Home Away From Home

Staying at Ett Hem offers a distinctive experience akin to being in a welcoming home, where every detail has been carefully considered to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

A Century of Grandeur
Since opening its doors in 1919 as the former Ritz of Barcelona, El Palace Barcelona has remained a legendary landmark. Monarchs, aristocrats, artists and musicians have all passed through its storied halls, leaving their mark on an address where the city’s history continues to unfold.

Rooms Steeped in Heritage
Set within a magnificent historic building, the hotel offers 120 rooms and suites designed for exceptional comfort. Carefully chosen furnishings and timeless styling create a welcoming retreat that has served as a cherished home away from home for generations of travellers. Accommodations can host between one and seven guests, and the hotel extends thoughtful amenities for both children and pets — ensuring every member of your party enjoys an unforgettable stay.

Flavours of Barcelona
Cuisine is a celebration here. From cocktails and tapas to breakfast, lunch and dinner, each dining moment embraces the finest local and seasonal ingredients. Under the guidance of executive chef Jesús Caballero, guests enjoy elevated Mediterranean flavours crafted with precision, creativity and a deep respect for Catalonia’s culinary heritage.

A Rooftop Garden Above the City
Rising beyond the seventh floor awaits one of Barcelona’s most enchanting spaces: the Rooftop Garden. Inspired by the romantic gardens of Francesc Cambó’s palace and the dreamy scenes painted by modernist artist Ramon Casas, this 1,500 m² oasis is considered one of the city’s largest and most exclusive rooftop retreats.

Wander through hidden corners filled with colour and fragrance, discover ponds and pergolas, relax beside the pool, and admire the more than fifty plant varieties that bring the space to life. With an haute cuisine restaurant and a serene solarium that feels close enough to touch the clouds, the Rooftop Garden captures the elegance and charm of 1920s Barcelona — elevated high above today’s vibrant city.

Kalesma Mykonos: A Mythical Hideaway in Aleomandra

In the Mykonian region of Aleomandra, named after the sacred Delian stables that once sheltered the horses of Apollo, Kalesma Mykonos rises from the same legendary soil. Rooted in myth, this luxury boutique hotel blends seamlessly with the island’s timeless allure.

The name ‘Kalesma’, meaning ‘inviting’ in Greek, reflects the heart of our ethos. At this exclusive hideaway, we invite travelers to experience a slice of Mediterranean paradise. The hotel’s whitewashed houses are thoughtfully designed to resemble a charming Mykonian village, cascading down a slope toward Ornos Bay, just a short stroll from Ornos Beach. Guests can enjoy a rare treat: panoramic 360-degree views, allowing for both sunrise and sunset from the same spot.

Set on a generous 5-acre property, this 5-star boutique hotel offers panoramic views of the Aegean Sea and features a collection of 4 Kalesma Suites (One-Bedroom), 13 Kalesma Suites Sea View (One-Bedroom), 8 Kalesma Villas Sea View (One-Bedroom), as well as the grand Apollon Villa (Three-Bedrooms) and Artemis Villa (Four-Bedrooms). These accommodations blend local charm with high aesthetics, creating the feel of an authentic Mykonian neighborhood.

Inspired by Cycladic architecture, Kalesma merges tradition with modern sophistication. The minimalist interiors, crafted with locally sourced materials, embody a balance of elegance and simplicity. Kalesma is a place of contrasts: modern yet rooted in tradition, luxurious yet unpretentious, meticulously curated yet effortlessly spontaneous—offering guests the perfect backdrop for a quintessential Mykonian escape.

The Telegraph, July 2017

Partly because of its "town within a town" design and partly because of those one-of-a-kind, pan-Mediterranean design touches, The Byblos conveys an atmosphere like no other resort hotel - assured without being stuffy, louche without being laid-back.

GQ (UK), June 2017

Byblos, which turns 50 this year, is one of those places. Everyone knows it. Everyone's been. Everyone's partied here, at the almost mythical Caves du Roy. Or posed around the blissful pool, overlooked by those pink-grapefruit and sunflower-yellow houses that hold the suites.

Tatler, January 2017

This hamlet of pastel-hued, Provençal-style houses is opulence personified... Byblos is favored by visiting celebrities, rock stars, aristocrats, and the über-rich.

Frommer's, July 2016

Forget five stars: this toy Mediterranean village, celebrating 50 years in 2017 and grouped around courtyards landscaped with palms, olive trees, and lavender has obtained "Palace" classification.

Praise

There are other luxury hotels in St. Moritz, but the Kulm can credibly claim to be the original. It was the first, at any rate, dating back to 1856, and if certain others are perhaps more recognizable, it’s nothing to do with the merits of the place. This is as fine an Alpine five-star gets: have a look at the view from the balcony over the lake and tell us if you don’t agree.

It’s a lovely base for a weekend rambling around the countryside, with bedrooms that you actually want to spend time in (so often pubs-with-rooms are a little pokey with nowhere to perch but the bed).
