The LaFayette Hotel and Club

San Diego, California, USA

The LaFayette Hotel hosted the likes of Frank Sinatra and Ava Gardner during its mid-century heyday. And after stints as an office building, radio station, and movie set – a memorable scene from 'Top Gun' was filmed here – it’s experiencing its second golden age as an urban resort steeped in retro glamour.

Garberhof

Malles Venosta, Italy

What began as a simple guesthouse for hikers is now this: a modern alpine lodge with luxurious rooms, a notable fine art collection, and the largest hammam of any hotel in Italy. Garberhof has come a long way in recent years, but despite significant renovations, this family-run hotel still offers warmth and cosiness.

LA ERMITA SUITES

Córdoba, Spain

Córdoba’s old town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and a few of its historic buildings now function as hotels. But there’s only one 'monument hotel' officially designated by the government: LA ERMITA SUITES. This charming boutique hotel is tucked away behind the cheerful façade of an 18th-century chapel.

Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa

Conca dei Marini, Italy

Perched on a cliffside overlooking the Salerno Gulf, the Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa offers 20 very private suites in a former 17th-century monastery, as well as plenty of room to roam, with four levels of gardens to explore, a cliffside infinity pool and a sunset terrace with wide-ranging views of the Amalfi Coast.

Hôtel Cabane

Paris, France

Hôtel Cabane has a unique layout that sets it apart from more traditional hotels in Montparnasse. This elegant ivory building looks like others on the block, but the property features a lush interior garden with a bungalow-like cabane built from local wood. It’s hardly rustic though – rather, it’s the most luxurious room available.

Lavender, A Four Sisters Inn

Yountville, California, USA

Located across the street from the French Laundry, Lavender consists of a quartet of smartly renovated 19th-century farmhouses set amid gardens of wild roses and hydrangeas. It's a member of the Four Sisters Inns, a group that combines the sophistication of boutique hotels with the warmth of bed-and-breakfasts.

The Well

Sofiemyr, Norway

'Natural nudity' prevails at The Well, northern Europe’s largest spa; swimwear isn’t allowed in saunas and steam baths (neither are phones). Luckily, it’s easy to go with the flow here. The wooded setting feels pleasingly remote, and the hotel rooms are appealing in their silence, simplicity and Scandinavian style.

Casa Chablé

Sian Ka’an Biosphere Reserve, Mexico

Sian Ka’an Biosphere is a UNESCO World Heritage site dedicated to preserving the flora and fauna of the Yucatán coast; it’s also home to Casa Chablé, a hotel that demonstrates that the desert-island atmosphere of a true eco-resort is entirely compatible with the white-glove elegance of a modern luxury hotel.
