NOT Hotel

Athens, Greece

This centuries-old stone building has a colourful past: once a brothel, it once served as a barn, an army barracks and later a film studio. The name is an acronym – NOT stands for No Ordinary Things – and an apt description of the eclectic project, its carefully restored interiors enlivened by glamorous 1920s-inspired details.

Miss Fuller

Paris, France

The American-born dancer Loïe Fuller was a sensation from her first appearance at the Folies Bergère, her swirling silk robes memorably captured in works by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec and Auguste Rodin; Miss Fuller – a new boutique hotel – celebrates her legacy and the Art Nouveau movement she personified.

Kaiserlodge

Scheffau am Wilden Kaiser, Austria

At the foot of Austria’s Wilder Kaiser mountain range is a collection of four villages, all excellent bases for exploring the region’s hiking and skiing areas. The smallest village, Scheffau, is considered the most scenic of the four, and one of its best hotels is Kaiserlodge. It’s only a few years old, and it looks like it.

Octavia Casa

Mexico City, Mexico

If Mexico City is a whirlwind of colours, sounds and flavours, Octavia Casa is a calm refuge in which to recover from the sensory overload. Located in Condesa, one of the city’s hippest neighbourhoods, this boutique hotel is stylish yet refreshingly down-to-earth; its interiors are light-filled and minimalist, almost ethereal.

21 Carpenter

Singapore, Singapore

Opened in 1936 as a remittance house, the landmark structure at 21 Carpenter was where the first generation of Singaporean immigrants sent money home. Thanks to strict rules around historical restoration, the main structure, now a hotel, remains as it was, while a contemporary extension provides a host of modern amenities.

Casa Sur

Antalya, Turkey

Just inside the ancient city wall that encircles Antalya’s Old Town, Casa Sur is a beautifully rendered retro-modern boutique hotel, each of whose six rooms combines contemporary colours and design with antique elements and one-of-a-kind objects. The result is unique in the most literal sense of the word.

Palácio Ludovice Wine Experience Hotel

Lisbon, Portugal

The German-born architect João Federico Ludovice, responsible for many of Lisbon’s glittering 18th-century palaces and churches, didn’t skimp on luxury for his own private residence, either, designing an opulent five-storey mansion that occupies an entire city block in Bairro Alto. As its name suggests, it pays homage to its original owner and to the building’s later use as a headquarters for the Port Wine Institute.

Stella d'Italia

Florence, Italy

Named after the nation’s oldest symbol, Stella d’Italia is an ode to Italianità – the spirit of being Italian – with one-of-a-kind interiors featuring hundreds of original paintings, eclectic art objects, old film posters and quirky antiques uncovered at local flea markets.

Fausto

Lima, Peru

Lodgings in Lima’s popular oceanfront neighbourhood of Miraflores run a range from luxury chain hotels to small inns. Fausto falls squarely into the latter category. Housed in an elegant 1920s townhouse on a tree-lined street just off the coastal promenade, the guesthouse has only five rooms but lots of local character.

The Lark

Bozeman, MT, USA

Bozeman is a major city by Montana standards, but it’s also surrounded by vast expanses of adventure-ready landscape, including Yellowstone National Park. It’s only natural that a boutique hotel like The Lark, then, should have one eye on the downtown social scene and the other on the great outdoors.

Le Val Thorens

Val Thorens, France 

If you’re going to Val Thorens, you might as well go to Val Thorens – Le Val Thorens, the hotel, that is, longtime stalwart of Europe’s highest ski resort. Reopened after extensive renovations in 2013, the establishment lays rightful claim to timeless alpine chalet hospitality and unrivalled slope access.
