TRAVEL WITH PURPOSE
In the luxury sector, we are seeing more and more consumers giving economic power to organisations that prioritise people and the planet over profit, including hotels and resorts. Responsible and sustainable tourism is not just a trend but a fundamental shift in how we are choosing to travel. In fact, a recent poll of SLH INVITED members found that 72 per cent either prefer to, or exclusively stay, in hotels that practise some form of responsible tourism.
From Thailand’s first sustainable hotel wedding service at Aleenta Resort & Spa Hua Hin to scholarships, rehabilitation projects and an environmental programme funded by SLH Caring Luxury Award-winner Ka’ana Resort in Belize, travellers want to see the world in luxury while also supporting local businesses, protecting the environment and ensuring all guests feel welcome and safe.

BRUSH UP ON YOUR ART
Art has traditionally been confined to galleries and museums, but a growing taste in contemporary works has brought guests closer to showstopping pieces during their stays. Discerning travellers are seeking out luxury not only in products but also in experiences, from the walls of their chosen hotel and beyond. In recent years we’ve seen increased investment in bespoke artworks, custom wallpaper, sculptures and illustrations throughout hotel rooms and public areas. We expect more destinations to take in-room artwork to the next level in 2019 with some of our small luxury hotels already in the frame – you can find elevators decorated by local graffiti artist Xevo in Art Paradiso, South Korea, or explore Hotel Gajoen Tokyo’s many special rooms and art displays inside the hotel on an exclusive tour.

The Personal
TOUCH Behind every exceptional hotel, is an extraordinary hotelier. Meet the owners who make up our community of independently minded hotels...
S
LH believes that individuality should be celebrated. We know that every traveller is different, so why would they expect to stay at the same hotel? That’s why we’re passionate about finding small, character-filled hotels that actively go above and beyond to set themselves apart from the norm. It’s all part of our unique identity: antichain and anti-same. Infinity pools, Michelin stars and room service are all very well, but true luxury doesn’t conform – it’s rare and unique. It’s the people behind a destination that make it special. So it’s no surprise that our community of hotel owners have their own inspiring stories to tell.
located at the foot of the Patagonian Andes in Argentina. “We’ve been celebrating Patagonia for 100 years,” its owner, Alejandro Laurence, says. While on the shores of Brazil’s east coast, interior designers Dr. Christian and Christiane Hirmer have created a destination that is in complete harmony with its surroundings. “In the year 1500 Brazil was discovered exactly at this coast, today Campo Bahia is barefoot luxury at its best,” say the hotel’s owners. Some hotels have been in the family for generations, such as Carmo’s Boutique Hotel in northern Portugal. “My mother and I are honouring my grandmother’s memory,” says owner and General Manager, Raquel do Carmo Barbosa. She does so by, “proudly preserving the traditional cuisine and exquisite art in a homey, romantic atmosphere”.
Our diverse collection of over 500 hotels spans more than 80 countries in the most sought-after locations, from classical city centres to remote tropical islands. And there’s nothing There are plenty more individuals in like sharing your own slice of paradise our community continuing a prestigious with others. As Luigi Polito, owner legacy in luxury hospitality, too. of Therasia Resort Sea and Spa in Sicily, a sun-kissed sensation far from the bustle of the mainland, explains: “We’ve created a space that we love to share with the world. Come and enjoy with us an unforgettable sunset by the sea.” Another secluded beauty spot is Correntoso Lake & River Hotel, slh.com
“Our house is your house, treat it just like your home!”

“Being in the fourth generation of hoteliers, we can say that the hotel business is a family passion,” say Andrés Soldevila Casals and Andrés Soldevila Ferrer, owners of Sant Francesc Hotel Singular in Palma, Mallorca. “We like this industry and we love what we do.” And you’re invited to join the family at these exceptional properties. “Our house is your house, treat it just like your home!” say the Kalbermatter family, owners of Hotel Firefly in Zermatt, Austria. Whether you are visiting a private island or a centuries-old château, you will always be greeted with a warm welcome. “Making people happy is our greatest joy,” says Otto E. Wiesenthal, owner of Altstadt Vienna, who, after years of travelling as a businessman, felt a need to create a refuge where guests could feel completely at ease. Andrea Quartucci, owner of Hotel Villa Carlotta in Sicily, winner of the SLH 2018 Mystery Inspectors Award, agrees. “We don’t just give you a room, we give you our heart,” he says. Then there’s the chance to just escape it all and immerse yourself in a different culture. “My family envisioned a resort where guests can rebel against their hectic lifestyle and slow down to enjoy nature and local culture,” says Samornpun Somnam, Executive Director of Keemala in Phuket, Thailand, a magical collection of private villas, nestled in lush Thai forest. Or if you prefer seclusion, there are hotels dedicated to just that. Giulia Pazienza Gelmetti, who owns Sikelia in sunny Sicily, invites guests to “enjoy the taste of silence,” at her collection of suites housed in ancient Dammuso dwellings. Wherever you choose, you will find personal touches running through all our small luxury hotels, with many reflecting the owner’s unique journey. “I built the Belles Rives around my own personal history,” says Marianne Estène-Chauvin, owner of Hôtel Belles-Rives in the French Riviera, the former home of F. Scott Fitzgerald and his wife, Zelda. 014

Hotel, all members of SLH and located in Thailand. Because running a hotel is, above all else, a labour of love. “We’ve created a house of dreams to ensure that each and every moment you spend with us will stay with you for eternity,” says Thierry Teyssier, who owns Dar Ahlam in Morocco, a traditional kasbah on the fringes of the desert. We all know how transformative a hotel stay can be. “Hospitality is the smile, the instant fulfilling of desires, the surprises and the sweet taste of childhood memories revisited,” says Gina Mamidakis, owner of Minos Beach art hotel, a Cretan idyll set on the waterfront in Mirabello Bay. Here, guests can find tranquillity by the Aegean Sea. But, above feeling restored, with hoteliers and destinations like these we can guarantee that guests will feel that they have found a home away from home. “Arrive as a guest, leave as a friend,” says Debrah Dhugga, Managing Director of DUKES LONDON.

The Dudley Boutique Hotel
Old-world hospitality meets modern-day luxury in this restful Daylesford retreat Wind your way along a red-brick path through flowering gardens and The Dudley Boutique Hotel springs into view. Outside, the building is all fresh white fretwork and wisteria that lends it a home-from-home feel. Yet while comfort is high on the agenda at The Dudley, this is very much a contemporary luxury escape. The original 1908 house has been refreshed for 21st-century stays – and the old jamming shed reborn as the Dudley Cottage. But heartfelt hospitality and a sprinkling of vintage features preserve its heritage. The breakfasts alone are worth the visit. Then there’s the virtually impossible to leave beds, leather reading chairs and log fires, DVD and paperback libraries, works by regional artists, nothing-too-much-trouble service and countless thoughtful touches. Staff at The Dudley love recommending must-see spots in the local area. If you only venture out once, make it to the Hepburn Bathhouse Complex to bathe in the mineral waters and refresh with one-of-a-kind spa treatments. Or you could head out hiking, stopping for supplies at local farmers’ markets – or with a Dudley picnic and directions to wild and wonderful lunch locations. For something a little more relaxed, winery visits and restaurant bookings can easily be arranged.

Little Polynesian Resort
Traditional soul meets contemporary style beside a protected lagoon in Rarotonga Gentle waves lap against the sand, the scent of tropical flowers drifts through the gardens, and palm trees frame endless views of the deep blue Pacific. At Little Polynesian Resort, it’s time to forget the cares of the everyday and let your senses take the lead. The exclusive bungalows and studios at this boutique escape have Polynesian craftsmanship at their core. High, vaulted ceilings of traditional ‘Are’ bungalows create a light, soothing atmosphere – look out for hand carved symbols on the wooden fixtures. Beachfront Bungalows are just steps from the sand, while Garden Studios are immersed in botanical beauty. If you’re in the mood to relax, recline into a hammock on the secluded beach or retreat to a shaded lounger on your private sundeck. The resort restaurant will keep you topped up with cold drinks and light bites throughout the day. While the evening menu stretches from the Pacific flavours of the Cook Islands to modern European cuisine.

A coppersmith’s workshop turned elegant retreat in the historic centre of Salzburg Once a 16th-century coppersmith’s workshop and now a boutique hideaway, Hotel Goldgasse has a rich history. From the outside, it feels right at home beside the centuries-old buildings lining Goldgasse. But step inside and you’ll discover an exclusive hotel with a look and feel that’s right up to date. The ground floor restaurant takes you back to the 1500s, with cosy wooden beams and regional Austrian cuisine served on copper dishes. Climb the stairs to admire original stone floors and the remains of frescoes, alongside chic modern furnishings. Then, push open the door to your room. You’ll find yourself in a cool, contemporary space adorned with bold prints that capture scenes of the famous Salzburg Festival. Hotel Goldgasse puts Salzburg’s cultural gems within easy reach. The narrow Goldgasse lane itself was home to luxury goldsmith workshops for hundreds of years. And it’s still the place to browse for jewellery and antiques. A short walk will take you to Residenzplatz, where Salzburg Cathedral stands beside stately townhouses. You could pay a visit to Mozart’s birthplace, also nearby, or marvel at the baroque opulence of the DomQuartier museum.

Opus XVI
A contemporary boutique hotel immersed in Bergen’s rich musical heritage Much like the famed piano concerto that it’s named after, Opus XVI weaves separate parts and influences together in perfect harmony. This boutique hotel, run by descendants of Norwegian (and Bergenborn) composer Edvard Grieg, celebrates Bergen’s cultural heritage while remaining wonderfully contemporary. Every element of this luxury city-centre hotel plays a part in telling Grieg’s story. One of the architects behind the building, which was once Bergen’s grandest bank, was the composer’s cousin. Today, original features such as the central hall’s marble columns and polished granite walls stand alongside contemporary Scandi-chic design. Many of the rooms and suites are named after Grieg’s masterworks. With its location on Vågsallmenningen plaza, Opus XVI puts you steps from some of Bergen’s best sights. Stroll along the historic Bryggen waterfront, lined with berry-red wooden shops and houses. Hop on the funicular railway up to Mount Fløyen. Or cosy up in one of the many artisan coffee shops, and watch the world (and the weather) go by. When it comes to stylish city breaks, Opus XVI’s contemporary take on authentic heritage gets a standing ovation.

Secluded Scandi-style on a wooded, fjord fringed hilltop in Alpine Norway Leave the hubbub of modern life behind and step into a Scandinavian folk tale. Settled on the crest of a hill, this woodland retreat has a log cabin look but a boutique hotel feel. The scent of timber hangs in the air and you’re greeted as though you’re a guest in a private home. Then it’s time to slow down as days drift by in languid luxury. Storfjord Hotel is a handcrafted haven. Inside is a calming combination of traditional Norwegian features and uber-modern design, with a soothing palette, snug corners, and carefully selected art and antiques. There’s plenty to satisfy an adventurous spirit, but if a few restful days simply soaking up some extraordinary scenery are in order, Storfjord Hotel is ideal. Hiking, fishing, sailing, skiing – however you want to see this part of Norway, Storfjord Hotel is a picture-perfect jumping off point. Forget television and technology and instead go fishing around Ålesund or paddle from the hotel to Glomset Cove in a kayak. You may even have seals and puffins for company. A private boat or helicopter trip to the waterfalls at Geirangerfjord and cloud-capped peaks around Hjorundfjord are musts. Back on dry land, short woodland walking trails weave around Storjord, or enjoy the more advanced hiking in the Sunmøre Alps. If that works up an appetite, you can request a cookery class.

Step through the bronze doors and soak up the vibrant yet relaxed atmosphere with modern art at every turn.

- BEST NEWCOMER HOTEL
Eco-luxury escape in gorgeous grounds on the northern shores of Corsica From plage to picturesque grounds, nature runs through Domaine Misincu. At the ‘wild’ tip of the island, Cap Corse, this seashore hideaway even has a river running through it with outdoor yoga and pilates taking place on the banks. With a Zen-like design that soothes from the second you arrive, your only difficulty will be deciding whether to book a room, suite, pool or beach villa. A location like this makes it a shame to stay indoors. So the spa at Domaine Misincu features pools and treatment spots inside and out. Hiking paths curl away from the hotel inland past olive trees and beehives. And small luxury-seekers can play in the kids club. If there’s anything you’ve forgotten to pack – accessories or paperbacks – stop by the stylish boutiques. Hiking, sailing, diving and waterskiing are just a few of the other ways to enjoy Domaine Misincu’s surrounds. Getting back to nature is the big draw here, but you can get a city culture fix by exploring nearby Bastia. If you’re travelling by air, the hotel even has its own helipad so that you can arrive in style and convenient Telsa charging stations for those coming by car.

Golden age glamour at this graceful residence in Maratea, the ‘Pearl of the Tyrrhenian’ Standing over the Tyrrhenian Coast, the views from Santavenere are sensational – whether you take them in from inside the regal salon or with an alfresco lunch. Its glamorous reputation lies in the fifties, when it was a celebrity favourite. Today Santavenere is both classical and contemporary, refined and welcoming. Interiors are peppered with carefully chosen antiques and paintings, and it’s easy to picture Italian nobility through to Hollywood stars kicking back here. Pack over-sized sunglasses in summer – for stretching out beside the olive and lemon tree lined pool in sartorial style. A bar both here and at the beach will keep you refreshed. Spend relaxed afternoons in the hotel’s exclusive-use spa inspired by Roman grottoes. For dinner, you’ll have even more restaurant choices – from net-fresh fish to modern makeovers of regional fare. This part of Italy is made for exploring. It’s simply a case of deciding how – by land, sea or air. You can rent everything from helicopters and Lamborghinis to a simple scooter, and Santavenere has its own helipad, dock and yacht. It’s just a few minutes walk to the private pebble beach, where loungers, towels and parasols wait, but the hotel will happily take you by golf cart. Further afield, Santavenere can arrange cruises and tours of Grotta delle Meraviglie, Certosa di Padula, the Rocks of Matera, and Cilento and Pollino National Parks.

The only sea view spa in Ischia, its therapies make use of the hot springs, with a natural grotto sauna and cleansing mud treatments. Wellbeing is the focus and the San Montano Resort bedrooms are light and breezy spaces designed to help you unwind. Two restaurants are the remaining ingredients in this boutique retreat’s recipe for a relaxing Mediterranean break. You don’t have to go far outside San Montano to find one of Ischia’s best beaches. The curving sands and crystal sea of Bay of San Montano are a leisurely walk away. In fact, you’ll have postcard-worthy coastline and wooded mountains to explore all around. When visiting the Bay, venture further into the thermal park of Negombo. It’s a sensational natural spa complex set in the great outdoors.

Behind the sleek, glass façade you’ll find designer furnishings and modern art, vintage pieces and photography collections. And with a choice of restaurants, it’s the perfect place for a city break with style in vibrant Naples. Take a dip in the rooftop pool, with the island of Capri and Mount Vesuvius as your backdrop. Head for the spa and try an infrared sauna or a bracing snow treatment. Try the traditional Neapolitan cuisine one night, and Michelin-starred gastronomy the next. Or live the high life with cocktails, cigars and a game on the crystal football table. Romeo’s waterfront location makes it the perfect base for day trips.

And no visit would be complete without a trip to the evocative ruins of ancient Pompeii.

TÓTEM Madrid
A cosmopolitan hub in Madrid’s cultural heart Infused with the spirit of new Madrid, TÓTEM feels a little like stepping inside a private members’ club. There’s a sense of heritage in the wooden panelling and parquet floors in many of the luxury rooms.

A dark, edgy colour palette runs through the lower levels and crisp, white colour schemes in the bedrooms introduce TÓTEM’s sense of style. With modern and elegant décor, the hotel’s new Basque restaurant, La Parrilla del Pimiento Verde, is the perfect place to enjoy traditional specialities, as well as a wide selection of wines. The bar, meanwhile, shakes things up with signature cocktails that attract the city’s in-crowd. Much of what’s on your sightseeing hit-list will be moments from TÓTEM. This city break retreat is in Barrio Salamanca, an exclusive address that puts the likes of Tiffany & Co and Manolo Blahnik on your doorstep. Escape into Parque del Retiro – or step it up and have the hotel personal trainer lead you around it. Be sure to squeeze in some art galleries and museums, too. The ‘golden triangle’ of Reina Sofia, Prado and Thyssen-Bornemisza are an excellent starting point.

11 Cadogan Gardens
A 19th-century townhouse with modern day sensibilities in leafy Chelsea Every corner of 11 Cadogan Gardens tells a tale. Its story began when Victorian Lord Chelsea built four grand townhouses – and the hotel’s quirky layout and higgledy hallways are a reminder of its origins. A landmark in its bohemian neighbourhood, it began to welcome artists and aristocrats, explorers and bon viveurs. Now, a 2019 makeover has begun a new chapter for the hotel – unveiling a modern sense of style while preserving its glamorous heritage. The fresh-faced bedrooms and reception spaces beautifully recapture 11 Cadogan Gardens’ historic elegance. As you step into the lobby, pause beside the cabinet of curiosities – a homage to Sir Hans Sloane whose presence is felt in Chelsea to this day. You can trace his collection across the guestroom and restaurant walls, too. A champion of British produce, Hans’ Bar & Grill is named after the man himself. And because he’s said to have introduced the UK to cocoa, chocolate desserts and cocoa-rich drinks take star billing. Just beyond Hans’ Bar & Grill’s mews door are the artisan boutiques of style-savvy Sloane Square. Walk a few steps further for music at Cadogan Hall, art at The Saatchi Gallery, or a little air in the Chelsea Physic Garden. And if the streets show a little more bustle than you’d like, retreat to the calm of 11 Cadogan Gardens. On sunny days, enjoy high tea on the terrace or in the conservatory and watch the world go by – just as guests have done for hundreds of years. 418

The bygone era is back at this golden-age London boutique When it comes to the art of living luxuriously, The Franklin is the grand master. Exquisitely opulent and effortlessly chic, it rekindles the spirit of the Belle Époque in London – reinvented for the modern era. Elegant and romantic too, from the moment you step inside, it will sweep you off your feet. At first glance, The Franklin is a grand English townhouse. But there’s nothing textbook about this one-off retreat. Interior design blends contemporary British style with Parisian flair and Gatsbyera influences within the bar – with its mirror walls and mixologistmade martinis. On-the-ball service comes courtesy of Les Clefs d’Or concierges, while a snug library and showpiece hammam welcome you back after a day spent out and about in London. The luxury stores of Knightsbridge are just a hop, skip and jump from The Franklin’s front door. But to see London in true golden-age style, slip inside a classic Rolls-Royce or Jaguar limousine. Nothing quite compares to seeing the skyline, galleries, palaces and royal parks on a balmy day from a 1920s car with the roof down.

Stratford-upon-Avon sets the scene for this timeless riverside retreat A redbrick manor with a boutique townhouse just a short saunter away – together, The Arden Hotel and Arden House are the stuff that Shakespearean dreams are made of. In fact, they’re named after the forest hideaway in the Bard’s comedy As You Like It. Here you can dine alfresco by the water, take in the RSC theatre backdrop and begin evenings with a bang in the Champagne Bar. Though town-based, staying in either property feels like a country escape. Through the white door of The Arden Hotel, heritage décor and contemporary furnishings, luxury and comfort share the limelight. Chesterfields sit beside floating fires and vintage-style afternoon tea gives way to award winning dining. Blissful bedrooms can be in the main building or at nearby Arden House. In the latter, breakfast is served round the family-style dining table and there’s a pantry of help-yourself treats. When out and about, take picnics to the riverbank or hire boats to go upstream. Peek inside Shakespeare’s childhood home, Anne Hathaway’s cottage or the stately houses and castles peppered through the county. Then wander to the theatre for a production by the Swan of Avon - with a pre-play drink in The Arden Hotel Club Bar.
