The location here is just exceptional - we got a direct water taxi from the airport right to the hotel doorstep (this transfer option isn’t cheap, but it’s an amazing way to arrive into Venice). The Baglioni Hotel Luna is apparently the oldest hotel in Venice, being housed in a 12th-Century Palazzo.

The original plan for this trip was a return to the beautiful Belgian city of Bruges, but when British Airways changed our connecting flight schedule, we opted to travel the night before and spend a night in Brussels. What began as a scheduling adjustment turned into the perfect opportunity for a stylish city stopover.

After booking our trip to Palm Springs for Modernism Week in February, we were keen to explore somewhere new in California or Nevada before flying home from LAX.

We visit London regularly, and with so many exceptional places to stay, the choice is never easy. While The Landmark London may not always be the most high-profile name, it consistently delivers – offering a superb location, timeless elegance, and a level of service that rivals the very best in the city.

When it comes to booking luxury hotels, my first port of call is often the Leading Hotels of the World. In Vienna, two properties stood out: Grand Hotel Wien and the iconic Hotel Sacher Wien.

Whenever we stay in London my first “go to” site to check hotels is the Leading Hotels of the World. We have stayed quite a number of times as The Café Royal near Piccadilly, The Landmark at Marylebone, One Aldwych and The Langham when it was part of this group too.
