K West Hotel & Spa

K West is a bit out of the way; its Shepherd’s Bush location is not exactly glamorous, but still just minutes from Central London by subway and a short hop from Notting Hill. In fact, we picked this hotel for people in the music industry as it is close to venues and studios. As such, it is reason...

Hotel Del Casco

In the last few years in Buenos Aires, boutique hotels have been popping up left and right. Some are perfectly stylish urban havens, while others are minimalist knockoffs that miss the mark. The Hotel del Casco, steeped in genteel history, doesn’t fit into either category. The palazzo was restore...

Riad 72

Tucked away on one of Marrakech’s winding side streets, Riad 72 is a pint-sized modernist haven offering a bit of Italian style, courtesy of its Milanese owner. Originally a palace, this harmonious retreat is filled with rich red fabrics accenting plush white floor cushions, glowing candles flick...

Aldebaran Hotel & Spa

Thanks to the influx of Austrian, German, and Swiss settlers to Argentinian Patagonia at the turn of the century, the lake region’s architecture tends toward chalet-style lodges and wooden cottages. Certain areas of Bariloche, complete with tourist-friendly German shepherd puppies and decorative ...

Dylan

The design hotel as we’ve known it is dead. In this corner of the world at least — whatever you can get away with calling the U.K. and Ireland collectively without starting a blood feud — the white-walled minimalist-Zen hotel is so very last century. In its place is the new breed of luxury hotel,...

Soniat House

Please note: Children under the age of 12 are not permitted at Soniat House. Certain parts of New Orleans had been quick to trade history and atmosphere for a quick tourist buck. But the Soniat House is the precise opposite of the phony drunken theme park atmosphere which was on...

Andaz London

About Andaz London:The Andaz London is a luxury boutique hotel in the heart of London adjacent to Liverpool Street Station. The Andaz's location puts The Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, St. Paul's Cathedral, Tate Modern and Spitalfields Market all within walking distance for guest...

Baby Grand Hotel

Hotel designers far and wide strive for interiors that are hip and eclectic, but these days a few zebra-print pillows and some potted bamboo in a minimalist setting hardly qualify as edgy. Enter the Baby Grand, an Athens hotel that’s delightfully avant-garde, splashed with colorful artworks, and,...

Rimrock Resort Hotel

Deep in the heart of the Canadian Rocky Mountains is the picturesque resort town of Banff, surrounded by some of North America's best ski resorts and some of the most breathtaking mountain vistas this side of the Alps. The Rimrock Resort Hotel is designed to take full advantage of the views: the ...

Hotel Des Academies Et Des Arts

An utterly traditional Thirties hotel in Paris’s Montparnasse district is now, after a radical update, the very picture of the modern boutique hotel. With just twenty rooms, the Hotel des Académies et des Arts owes some debt to the cozy Left Bank lodgings of times past; but the bold colors, graph...

The Breakers

Miami may be where you make yourself seen in a bid to get in the gossip pages; Palm Beach, though, is an altogether different sort of place, and no hotel encapsulates its essence quite like the stately Breakers. This hundred-year-old hotel, designed after the style of an Italian Renaissance villa...

The Hotel Arts Barcelona

One hundred yards from the Mediterranean, Barcelona’s Hotel Arts is the tallest building in Spain, and possibly the most over-the-top hotel in Western Europe. This 44-floor skyscraper is striking enough from the outside, its inside-out steel superstructure gleaming in the sun, but the insid...

Auberge Du Soleil

If your idea of heaven is Tuscany meets Provence with a Bay Area sensibility, Auberge du Soleil will make think you’ve died and gone there. In the distance rise the mountains, while below, a vineyard sits. Fifty-odd rooms are decorated in a style that can only be described as European country cot...

Vila Joya

The Algarve is one of those blessed places, a sun-kissed expanse so heavenly it gets to keep a “the” at the front of its name, like the Riviera or the Amalfi. As such it’s quite popular with basically anyone who likes sunshine, and its hotels run the gamut from the big and bland on down to, well,...

La Residence Hotel & Spa

On the banks of the Perfume River, in the old imperial city of Hue, is a restored classic, an Art Deco–style boutique hotel: La Résidence. This was once the Governor’s mansion, a piece of colonial history, looking straight across the river at the imperial citadel. And today its colonial-chic luxu...

Solis Cambrian

Nothing against the chocolate-box chalets, but we’re glad to see more and more Swiss hotels embracing modern architecture and design. There’s something satisfying about the way a crisp modernist interior amplifies the drama of the high Alpine landscape. So there’s plenty to love about the Cambria...
