Welcome to a realm of opulence and refinement, where timeless elegance meets contemporary sophistication—welcome to the epitome of luxury, Four Seasons Hotel London at Tower Bridge. Nestled in the heart of London, this exquisite haven seamlessly blends history and modern allure, offering an unparalleled experience of world-class hospitality.

Stepping into the Adria Hotel in London is like embarking on a luxurious journey through time and elegance, where every moment promises comfort, charm, and an unforgettable experience. This is my review of The Adria Hotel; a stunning 19th Century 5-star townhouse boutique hotel located in South Kensington, London. The location was good and the townhouse afforded a small boutique atmosphere with only 24 rooms and suites across the upper four levels of this white painted Georgian house.t

In this review of The Beaumont Hotel in London, I’ll detail my experience of the location, the restaurants, and of course the accommodation and facilities at the hotel itself. Read below to find out everything you need to know before your next trip to London.

Welcome to my review of the Bürgenstock (Heritage) Hotel at the Bürgenstock Resort; a stunning 5-star hotel located overlooking Lake Lucerne. The location was stunning, the many hotel dining options excellent and the accommodation itself was exceptional.

Welcome to my review of The Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon; a stunning 5-star hotel located in the capital city. The location was great (I’d say extremely central, if not necessarily in the centre itself), the food fantastic and the accommodation itself was definitely top notch understated luxury.

With Key West not having any of our usual ‘go-to’ properties like Leading Hotels of the World, Virtuoso etc. I soon spotted the Marquesa and on further investigation decided that this would be the place for us. The choice of accommodations and locale appealed, as did realising that the newer Marquesa 4-1-4 building had the premier suites which seemed to give us the sort of accommodation that we were looking for.

The Belmond Mount Nelson, a historic Cape Town hotel since 1899, is a cultural gem in a prime location. I've visited multiple times and always wanted to stay. This trip marked that opportunity, as we booked a few days at this iconic institution before continuing to The Silo.

Easter Island had been on my radar for some time, so I was absolutely thrilled to finally get there, albeit with three years of Covid disruption. Chile only reopened for tourism in 2022, and Easter Island remained closed even beyond the rest of the country resuming visitors.

Welcome to my review of Hotel Las Majadas, Pirque; located in the wine region on the outskirts of Santiago Chile. Read below to find out everything you need to know before your next trip to Chile.

Nestled in the heart of Chilean Patagonia, The Singular is more than a retreat — it's a seamless blend of heritage, luxury, and wild natural beauty. Housed in a former cold storage plant, it combines striking architecture with Patagonian soul, offering an experience that’s both sophisticated and deeply immersive.

Welcome to an unparalleled fusion of elegance and modernity nestled in the heart of Santiago, Chile - The Singular, where luxury meets cultural sophistication.

Formerly Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa by Tánica Hotels, this property has been part of Nayara Resorts since 2020 — a luxury eco-lodge set deep in the Atacama Desert. Over our 4-night stay (3 full days), we balanced nearby excursions with downtime in our suite — complete with an open-view front terrace and a private rear terrace overlooking the mountains — as well as soothing treatments and water rituals at the tranquil Puri Spa.

Cardiff was somewhere I’d never been before, so being invited by Eat PR & Marketing for a short weekend stay at Voco in Cardiff Bay, I was looking forward to the opportunity to visit a new location and new hotel, as well as being my first Voco hotel stay too (a group of currently 41 open hotels with 34 more in the pipeline). Any reviews though by The Private Traveller are completely independent.

Capella Hotels first caught my attention when they operated Capella Pedregal in Cabo. With their growing collection across Asia and the Maldives, the tented retreat at Capella Ubud immediately stood out – I knew it was a place I had to experience.

Looking for a relaxing fortnight in Mexico before heading further to the USA and Palm Springs for Modernism Week, we first visited Cartesiano in Puebla before travelling up to the Yucatán Peninsula for two Chablé Hotels.

I had spotted Chablé Yucatán a while back, this property had opened in 2016 and is currently part of the Leading Hotels of the World portfolio; always a favourite go-to of mine for hotel choices. The stunning casitas throughout the resort all with private pools looked amazing, and they certainly did not disappoint in reality.

This new hotel, self-styled as the world’s first super boutique hotel opened in September 2021, slightly later than planned but was obviously impacted by Covid. It had been on my radar for a while and I was eagerly anticipating when I’d be able to visit, so I was very lucky to be able to stay for a weekend in March 2022.

The saying "Location, location, location" perfectly applies to One Aldwych. Its central position makes it incredibly easy to access — just a short taxi ride from King’s Cross or a quick Underground trip (had there not been a strike on our arrival day).

While I enjoy revisiting my favourite five-star hotels in London, I also love discovering new properties and locations. L’Oscar had been on my radar for some time (it’s been open for just over three years), but a Covid-related cancellation meant I had to postpone my visit. Almost a year later, I was finally able to reschedule and experience this unique hotel.
