THE AMPERSAND, LONDON

The Ampersand is a striking hotel, mixing contemporary décor, bright prints and eye-catching art installations which give the hotel a modern and fresh appeal. Rooms are surprising large, especially for a central London boutique hotel. It’s clear to see that inspiration has been taken from the nearby Natural History, Victoria & Albert and Science Museums, with […]

BILL & COO SUITES AND LOUNGE, MYKONOS

Bill and Coo Suites and Lounge is part of The Leading Hotels of the World group and you don’t have to look far to understand why. From the moment you walk into the lobby you’re met with the stylish combination of glass and wood decor, through reception the hotel’s crowning glory awaits; an infinity pool […]

PAPAYA PLAYA PROJECT, TULUM

Immersed in my rooftop plunge pool, with 360 views of the Caribbean sea and thick Mexican jungle, sipping on frozen margaritas, I felt like I had made it…

AZULIK ECO RESORT, TULUM

This hotel won’t be for everyone, and as much as I loved it, the 3 nights we spent here was the perfect amount of time for us. Azulik was the second hotel we stayed in during our trip to Tulum, after a luxurious stay at Hotel Esencia and the two hotels couldn’t be more different. […]

HOTEL ESENCIA, RIVIERA MAYA

I’m currently writing this from the bed of my jungle casita at Hotel Esencia. Due to jet lag, I’m currently wide awake at 4am, waiting for the sunrise. Now seems like the perfect time to capture the essence of this place. We’re staying at a few different hotels during our time in Mexico, Hotel Esencia […]

F ZEEN RETREAT, KEFALONIA

My stay at the F Zeen retreat was the perfect antidote to life in London, where even 10 minutes of rush hour tube travel can leave me tearing my hair out. Just a few nights here are all that is needed to restore perfect equilibrium to both body and mind, enabling you to completely switch […]

TGSKI, MORZINE

We were greeted by the lovely chalet team upon arrival and shown to the dining area where we enjoyed a glass of champagne whilst taking in the beautiful views of the slopes from the chalets panoramic balcony. Decorated in typical cosy fashion, Chalet Les Pierrys is tastefully furnished to a high spec with a luxurious […]

THE WESTHOUSE, NEW YORK

Despite being so close to many of the busiest areas in the city, the hotel offers a sanctuary for its residents, leaving you feeling serene and calm as soon as you enter through the large revolving doors into the glamorous lobby, modelled on 1920’s glamour with a nod to the art deco aesthetic. Upon arrival […]

THE BROOME, NEW YORK

The Broome is set in the most perfect location for those who want to be surrounded with the trendy shops, cafes and bars on offer in New York’s much sought after downtown area. Broome Street itself forms the boundary of Nolita (North of Little Italy) and so not more than a short walk will you […]

THE MAIDSTONE, EAST HAMPTON

We’re lucky enough to travel alot and stay in some incredible places, but occasionally I stumble upon a place that really gets under my skin, in this case it’s the small but perfectly formed boutique hotel in East Hampton. Positioned on East Hampton’s Main Street, just a mile away from the golden sands of the […]

HACIENDA DE SAN RAFAEL, SEVILLE

Formerly an olive farm, Hacienda de San Rafael has been transformed into a charming country house boutique hotel. The family run property is beautiful, spacious and incredibly quiet, this is the place you come to if you’re looking for a few days of complete relaxation in an authentic Spanish environment. The attention to detail is […]
