Principal

Marqués de Valdeiglesias, 1 (corner of Gran Via 2), Madrid

Genuine style abounds in Madrid with Design Hotels’ latest addition. Just off the central Gran Via, the Principal is perfectly located for a city break to the Spanish capital.

Sunborn

Ocean Village, Gibraltar

This may look like a cruise ship. It may float like a cruise ship and have all the luxury amenities of a cruise ship, but it’s a fraud; it’s a permanently moored hotel and doesn’t even have an engine. Bespoke built and then shipped across from Malaysia to be docked...read more

Romanos, Costa Navarino

Navarino Dunes, Costa Navarino, Messinia

The west coast of the Peloponnese is chokka neither with sunburned tourists or rip-off package resorts. Instead, Messinia seduces with its kalamata olive groves and swathes of beautiful emerald ruggedness. It has genuine history, too – the perfectly preserved stadiums and ruins of ancient Messene are here, as well as...read more

Oakley Hall

Rectory Road, Oakley, Basingstoke, Hampshire

Just far enough from London to be justifiably called a weekend escape for city dwellers, Oakley Hall once plied its trade as a leading conference hotel. But it’s always promised so much more, with an 18th-century farmhouse setting and sprawling grounds providing the ideal backdrop for a country house hotel...read more

La Grande Maison

10 rue Labottière, Bordeaux

The latest creation of wine mogul Bernard Magrez, La Grande Maison specialises in the luxury and attention to detail an 18th-century monarch might have enjoyed. You’re greeted by name by every member of staff; the chocolates on the silver dish in your room are hand-made; bathroom unguents are by Hermès...read more
