Maison de la Luz Warehouse Arts District One of the newest New Orleans hotels, and currently one of my favorites. Los Angeles design firm Studio Shamshiri and Ace Hotel’s in-house creative team have designed this hotel in New Orleans as if it were the home of a worldy woman who has filled it with decorative souvenirs. Maison de la Luz … Read More
Hands down, this is the best hotel in Puerto Plata. So for me, this is the only option when spending a few nights in town. And an SLH property, so it is a boutique hotel, and not a price that is overly expensive. I was surprised to find out that the hotel was built only about 14 years ago. A … Read More
Having enjoyed several Nobis Hotels in Stockholm I was curious about their new Hotel Nobis – Copenhagen. And upon entering it had that New Hotel Smell… and a few dangling wires here and there as well. Like a freshly planted garden, the hotel still needs a few months to grow into itself… but it is a beautiful space, and the … Read More
Another great boutique hotel, that proves again, the Design Hotels continue to be one of my favorites for Boutique Hotels. Efficient Design (this is Germany) but inviting and comfy. A pleasant and helpful staff. The hotels location is a bit off the beaten path, but is surprisingly convenient… an easy stroll to the Museum Island and Alexanderplatz. I was upgraded … Read More
EXPECTATIONS: I think a really pleasant surprise, but let’s see. This is the first booking of an SLH property in quite a while… but I must say that I have loved almost every hotel we have booked through them, so when the Black Friday Sale happened I thought it might work for Buenos Aires. Not the typical hotel, but a … Read More
Hotel/Spa Report by: Madame Now This was a delightful stay with the purpose of enjoying the Spa Village Bath to its fullest extent. The room was well appointed, with a most comfortable bed and bedding. I loved the Pillow Menu, perfect for the Goldie Locks who lives inside all of us. I ordered two pillows that were “Just right”. I … Read More
Parking Garage in Chelsea’s art gallery district turned into Boutique Hotel. A cozy little hotel. Does make for a good place if you have business in Chelsea, the location is quite central. Lobby and entrance is very nicely laid out, and found the elevator and room pins intriguing. But for those who like space to spread out, beware… the rooms … Read More
When coming from the airport, I asked our taxi driver if he knew about our hotel Roomers and if it was nice… he said it was nice, but very black. I wasn’t quite sure what he meant at the time, but now I do. It’s as if you took Prince in his Lovesexy period, and made it all Black, (in … Read More
Again, another great little gem of a hotel from the Design Hotels. So glad they are part of the SPG Program. All the rooms I believe are basically Suites with a separate Bedroom and Living room, with Balconies facing to the Gardens. The restaurant was exceptional and also had a Wine Tasting bar adjacent to the hotel property. Breakfast was … Read More
