Eurostars Madrid Tower

Eurostars Madrid Tower

Once upon a time the stylish modern hotels were smallish and independently owned, while the massive towers tended very much towards the beige and bland side of things. It’s no longer quite so simple. The Eurostars Madrid Tower is no mom-and-pop operation — it’s part of a fairly extensive chain, ...
EV Hotel

EV Hotel

It seems while everyone was looking for the next Prague somewhere in the Balkans, the Bodrum Peninsula suddenly turned into some kind of Turkish Riviera — with Türkbükü playing the part of bizarro St. Tropez. Don’t expect throwback Sixties grooviness, though; this place’s heyday appears to be rig...
Exedra

Exedra

Though nominally the sister hotel of the bizarre modernist fantasy that is the Aleph, the Exedra could hardly be more different: while the Aleph is a small and insular hipster haven, the Exedra is a large and luxurious business hotel; and while the Aleph strains at the boundaries of cutting-edge ...
Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten

Fairmont Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten

The Vier Jahreszeiten has set the standard for luxury-hotel elegance in Hamburg since the late 19th century, a decade or so before the first Fairmont hotel was built. But in spite of the change of management, what’s now the Fairmont Hamburg has sacrificed none of its classic character. <p...
Farol Design Hotel

Farol Design Hotel

On the marina in the historic heart of Cascais, the upscale western suburb of Lisbon, a nineteenth-century manor house and a neighboring lighthouse have been painstakingly renovated, converted into a contemporary-style design hotel, complete with all the expected trappings: a Mediterranean fusion...
Finca Cortesin Hotel Golf & Spa

Finca Cortesin Hotel Golf & Spa

Southern Spain is blessed with an array of natural gifts: not just sun, sand and surf, but a climate and a landscape that are ideal for the game of golf. And while golf resorts the world over are a conservative lot, Spanish hotels have been quicker than most to modernize — beneath its traditional...
Finca Son Gener

Finca Son Gener

When it’s summertime and Spain is calling there’s no end of options. More than a few of us prefer to leave the Costa del Sol to the tourists and Ibiza to the clubbers, and set out for Mallorca — either Palma, the capital city, or something a bit on the quiet side, like the pastoral Finca Son Gene...
First Hotel Grims Grenka

First Hotel Grims Grenka

It’s a puzzling irony: the sort of modern, minimalist design that’s so often described as Scandinavian is actually quite rare in real live Scandinavian hotels. There are exceptions, of course, but for the most part they’re a conservative lot. That’s about to change, though, if the opening of the ...
Fontana Park Hotel

Fontana Park Hotel

If you haven’t been to Portugal in a while you might be surprised at the explosion of new contemporary design that’s taken place there. Suddenly this classic, conservative town is full of striking avant-garde architecture and interiors. And that goes for the hotels as well — among the best of the...
Four Seasons Georges V

Four Seasons Georges V

Paris palace hotels—the Bristol, the Crillon, the Ritz—have always been renowned for their historical significance and their stuffy grandeur. Though it is not officially a palace, the George V is, in many ways, the most palatial. From the moment it opened off the Champs-Elysées in 1928, it was ca...
Four Seasons Hotel Firenze

Four Seasons Hotel Firenze

One of the most common complaints about the big luxury chains is that they tend to exhibit a certain sameness of style, no matter the location. But whatever you might say about the Four Seasons Firenze, you certainly can’t get away with saying that. Never mind the museums and the galleri...
Four Seasons Hotel Geneva

Four Seasons Hotel Geneva

The Hotel des Bergues stood here on the shores of Lake Geneva back when the Four Seasons was still just a suite by Vivaldi — it was literally the first hotel in Geneva, and even now, post-renovation and under new management, it’s still, by many lights, the top luxury lodging in town. Even-keeled ...
Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace Budapest

Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace Budapest

Four Seasons Gresham Palace? On Roosevelt Square? Names aside, everything else about it is pure home-grown Art Nouveau Budapest romance. It’s in one of the city’s most auspicious locations, just off the Pest side of the Chain Bridge, and the square provides a perfect vantage point for taking in t...
Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire

Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire

We all know more or less what a Four Seasons is, and most of us are at least familiar with the basic idea behind an English country house hotel. But put the two together and the result, the Four Seasons Hampshire, is something of a novelty, even, in some circles a controversy; these hotels tend t...
Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul At The Bosphorus

Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul At The Bosphorus

The second Four Seasons in Istanbul is a different animal entirely from its sister in the Sultanahmet district. This one, right by the side of the Bosphorus, is quite a bit farther from the heart of the city’s tourist trade, and closer to the clubs, shops and restaurants where you’ll find the you...
Four Seasons Hotel Milano

Four Seasons Hotel Milano

Though it’s got plenty of competition, a considerable subset of our readers will likely find the Four Seasons to be hands down the finest hotel in Milan. The handiest reason is simply that the location dovetails nicely with what many consider to be the main reason to visit Milan: it’s right in th...
