Tablet Hotels is the official hotel selection of the MICHELIN Guide. We scour the earth to find the most unique and unforgettable places to stay. Here are five of our favorite new finds:
1.HOTEL POSEIDON — Positano, Italy
Originally constructed as a private villa, the Hotel Poseidon opened its doors to the public in 1950, and is still going strong as a member of Positano’s small-but-elite fraternity of classic luxury hotels..2.CHÂTEAU & VILLAGE CASTIGNO — Assignan, France
Château & Village Castigno is “distributed” hotel — it’s spread throughout the village, in houses and buildings that are color-coded to set them apart from this living village’s remaining private dwellings.3. CRISTINE BEDFOR — Minorca, Spain
Cristine Bedfor is named for a fictional character dreamt up by hotelier Cristina Lonzano. It’s a multi-layered concept, a local’s vision of a British traveler’s idea of a perfectly hospitable Menorcan residence.4. HOTEL JUNE — Malibu, California
This is what you want from a Malibu boutique hotel: stylish but unpretentious, comfortable but not extravagant, bohemian but not overly busy, and tempered by a bit of Modernist austerity.5. VOLKSHAUS — Basel, Switzerland
Once a castle, later a brewery, still later a concert hall and office complex, Volkshaus has been central to Basel’s public life for centuries, and the hotel that stands here today is both thorough update and sensitive restoration.Hero image : Cristine Bedfor
