NOMAD LOS ANGELES, USA
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Jacques Garcia is at it again over in Los Angeles. Here he’s inspired by Italy, riffing off this handsome downtown building’s original role as the Bank of Italy’s HQ. When it opens in late January, the original gold-and-blue Italianate lobby ceiling will have been restored, presiding over a humming dining space, and inspiring the design of the 241 bedrooms. But the big news here is that chef Daniel Humm and restaurateur Will Guidara of World’s Best Restaurant (and three-Michelin-star holder) Eleven Madison Park will oversee the lobby restaurant-bar, all-day Italian-style café and formal dining room – their first foray outside New York. thenomadhotel.com/los-angeles

✈️ Travel tip: WHITE CITY HOUSE, LONDON

The Soho House group can do no wrong right now. Last year they partnered up with the clever Americans at the Sydell Group ( , The Line, Freehand) to open London’s most scene-shaking new hotel, The Ned. This year, they have not one but two fresh additions to the capital’s busy hotel landscape. Early doors in January, there’s the facelift of Soho institution Kettner’s, reborn as Kettner’s Townhouse with 33 bedrooms backing onto the group’s original Soho House on Greek Street. But the main event is in April: White City House in the former BBC Television Centre in W12. With the Beeb decamped, the famous circular building is being transformed into a new ‘village’ with hundreds of apartments, restaurants (including a Bluebird Café) and White City House with 45 bedrooms, a Cowshed Spa, an Electric Cinema and rooftop pool. whitecityhouse.com 🔥

✈️Travel ideA: AWASI IGUAZÚ, ARGENTINA

On the Argentinian side of the pounding Iguazu Falls that straddle the border with Brazil, Awasi Iguazú opens its 14 wood-clad villas hidden in the trees this February. But this isn’t just about chasing waterfalls. Each villa has its own guide and four-wheel-drive vehicle and there’s a packed roster of excursions developed with renowned biologist and photographer Emilio White: boat trips to 18th-century Jesuit ruins; hikes into the Atlantic rainforest to discover its thousands of endemic plants and animals, and visit the local Guarani tribes. awasiguazu.com

🏝COMO UMA CANGGU, BALI
Bali’s hipper-than-thou Canggu scene hits tipping point this year with the arrival of the ahead-of-the-curve COMO group’s latest outpost, opening in February on Echo Beach. The group is best known for its Shambhala Estate, the sensational holistic hideaway at the spiritual heart of the isle near Ubud, and its new beachfront hit will be the work of Asian and Italian designers Koichiro Ikebuchi and Paola Navone. Riffing off Canggu’s deliciously laid-backed style, the hotel will be centred around the COMO Beach Club, which looks out to Echo Beach’s famous surf breaks –if you want to carve those breaks up yourself the hotel has partnered with top-notch wave-masters Tropicsurf. The 119 rooms, suites and apartments included penthouses with rooftop pools from which to survey the scene. And not forgetting its soul-soothing roots, a new COMO Shambhala Retreat will have seven treatment rooms in which to ease out board-battered muscles. comohotels.com/umacanggu

📌 Kraków .city

Весь центр Кракова занесен в Список объектов всемирного наследия ЮНЕСКО. Любой турист рано из поздно оказывается на Рыночной площади — это большое пространство застроено образцами средневековой архитектуры. Стоит осмотреть Дворец Епископов и пройти по маршруту «Королевская дорога», который ведет вдоль главных достопримечательностей города.

Еще одно знаменитое место — Королевский или Вавельский замок, в этот архитектурный ансамбль входят несколько хозяйственных построек, Кафедральный собор Станислава и Вацлава, а также часовни. В замке висит колокол Сигизмунд, который, по легенде, исполняет одно из двух желаний: приносит деньги или любовь. Нужно только выбрать что-то одно. 💋 .

📌 Краков
Полное имя Кракова звучит так: Столичный королевский город Краков. И он действительно оправдывает такое торжественное название. Несмотря на то, что этот крупный город на юге Польши уже давно перестал быть столицей, в нем остались достоинство и красота главного населенного пункта страны. А уж королевский шик тут встречается на каждом шагу.

Многие туристы считают Краков самым интересным местом в Польше. Сюда приезжают, чтобы осмотреть достопримечательности, посетить впечатляющие и ужасающие памятники Второй мировой войны и насладиться удивительной по гармоничности архитектурой. К тому же здесь проходят музыкальные и кинофестивали, дни уличных театров и другие культурные события мирового масштаба.

ROBERTO AMERICAN BAR, VIENNA, AUSTRIA
Many young barmen in Vienna doff their shakers to Roberto Pavlovic, who for years held court at the exquisite Loos Bar, having worked his way up from washing glasses. Now he has his own fiefdom, Roberto American Bar, a couple of turns from Stephansplatz. Pull up a stool beneath the pearly chandelier, which glows like a jellyfish, and you may be handed a shot of Fernet-Branca to clear the palate for a rum Old Fashioned or an Abuela's Daiquiri (with lime jam and walnut). Roberto is an avuncular presence who dispenses Champagne and hugs liberally. Your neighbour may be a princess in furs or a club promoter - to get a handle on what's going on in Vienna, start here.

📌 J Plus by Yoo

On the corner of a busy Causeway Bay street, J Plus by Yoo can be recognized by its distinct facade—gray stone with a bold mural depicting open drapes and Mona Lisa’s likeness. As a YOO Studio-designed address (a collaboration between Philippe Starck and property developer John Hitchcox), J Plus attracts style-conscious couples, sharply dressed business travelers, and even a handful of staycationers. Traveling professionals tend to love J Plus—not just for the refreshing look, but also for the little extras—such as a meeting space, desks, and complimentary refreshments all day long.

📌The Pottinger

It’s tough to find a better location than The Pottinger, which honors its namesake heritage street with tasteful contemporary Chinese decor, museum-worthy photography, and destination restaurants and bars. Reinforcing the heritage concept, the rooms have Chinoiserie-chic touches like pale pink silkscreen headboards, poppy-colored red accents, and creamy leather furniture. Multiple dining outlets promise to entertain: classic Italian Gradini Ristorante E Bar Italiano is perfect for a date night (plus fantastic breakfast), while two-Michelin-starred Ta Vie takes diners on a French-Japanese gastronomic journey.

📌Hotel Stage

Located on a quiet street in Kowloon, Hotel Stage straddles the culture-rich Jordan and Yau Ma Tei districts, offering a convenient location for business travelers who appreciate functionality and great design.

The surrounding area overflows with local restaurants, shops, temples and markets—it’s an ideal base for culture enthusiasts who want to dive into old Hong Kong.

📌Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong
Adjacent to Hong Kong’s International Finance Centre and office towers, the Four Seasons is in an unbeatable location if you're here on business. Guests, many of whom are in town for conferences and meetings, are likely to be turned out in Chanel, Gucci, Zegna, and even the handiwork of celebrated Hong Kong tailor WW Chan. The multiple dining venues provide a nice work break: The Lounge is a favorite for power lunches and unhurried afternoon tea; on the fourth floor, three-Michelin-starred Lung King Heen draws as many locals as guests with its fine-dining Cantonese; two floors up, Caprice turns out world-class French cuisine; and a martini is a must at Blue Bar, which as an alfresco terrace, as well as pretty Murano glass mosaics.

📌The Langham, Hong Kong
Located in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui, just steps from the city’s major shopping malls and restaurants, The Langham draws a mix of clientele—lots of business travelers, as well as Burberry-clad leisure folk, a few families, and non-guests in search of an authentic English afternoon tea experience at Palm Court. As you enter the grand lobby—all marble floors, beige marble walls, and towering chandeliers—the frenetic streets of Tsim Sha Tsui fade away and a sense of calm takes over. #люкс

📌Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong

Recalling its roots as one of Hong Kong’s first luxury hotels (est. in 1963), the entrance to this Mandarin is all glossy black marble. A famous afternoon tea is served in the Clipper Lounge off one side of the lobby and cocktails and live music in the mahogany-colored Captain’s Bar off the other. The old-school glamour comes with a prime location, steps from Hong Kong’s preeminent business and shopping district.

Hotel Neri
If you like the idea of staying in a restored medieval castle hidden down a tiny, quiet alleyway off one of the prettiest squares in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter, Hotel Neri is the choice for you. The comfy rooms are to a certain extent customizable to your own preferences: Take your pick from the bed linens and pillows menu. And do not leave without booking a table at Roba Estesa for top-notch Catalonian cuisine with global influences.

HOTEL PANACHE 🖤🥖✈️🥂
Super-cool and sublimely Parisian
Surely a stay in Paris should mean an inexpensive hostelry, with quirky stairs and a receptionist who points you in the direction of the best tagine or moules, located next to a thrift shop piled with back editions of Tintin et les Egoutiers. And so it is here, in the spirited 9th arrondissement, created by Dorothée Meilichzon, who started off designing toys. The unusual flat-iron shape of Panache's 19th-century building means that each of its 40 bedrooms has a slightly odd configuration, with everything a little askew, prettily Deco-tiled, dove-grey bathrooms and bevel-edged mirrors positioned to coax a sense of symmetry. All is perfectly quiet until (and this is a moment to cherish) you fling open the windows of your room in the early evening and people-watch from a little balcony overhanging the sweet clamour of the streets radiating from the corner below: locals walking their Jack Russells, antiquarian booksellers hurrying back from the nearby Passage Verdeau, all the café conversations of the Grands Boulevards district. Panache also has a mosaic-decorated restaurant serving Middle Eastern-inspired small plates, with a female sommelier who modishly recommends delicious natural or raw wines supplied by dedicated French growers whose hard-working, summer-dusty hands are sometimes photographed for the bottle labels. Then a stagger up those lopsidedly long-winding stairs to bed. There is little here not to love.

Paris Nightlife 🖤
THE HEMINGWAY BAR AT THE RITZ

The best new boutique Paris hotels

ADÈLE & JULES
Chic and charming couple in the newly cool 9th
Adèle and Jules are two halves of a single charming hotel or, technically, two hotels in one block. Reserved romantics will appreciate its low-hype offering - 30 varied bedrooms in each of the buildings, a Taittinger-led honesty bar in Adèle and a superb welcome with a proper concierge service. This is combined with a tucked-away location in a newly but not aggressively trendified slice of the 9th, close to rue des Martyrs (food shopping), Grands Boulevards (nightlife) and the Gare du Nord. Designer Stéphane Poux's style is a deliberate mishmash of urbanity and generous homeliness, his eye travelling around ikat prints, Indian cotton quilts and witty, intriguing artworks. Club rooms have balconies big enough for prolonged nightcaps, a bathtub and twin basins. If you get a view - say of the landmark BNP Paribas building or Grand Rex cinema - the smaller deluxe rooms are charming too. Breakfast features eggs, sausages and mini viennoiseries, and between 4pm and 6pm there's a pick-me-up of Dammann Frères tea, cakes, pastries and fruit. This takes place in a cosy living/breakfast room lined with decent reading material: not just the usual glossies, but also shelves of Folio paperbacks. The no-restaurant issue is very much a non-issue, with local options including Abri, Vivant, Richer and Saturne. A sibling to long-time fashion-pack bolthole Hôtel Thérèse in the 1st and Hôtel Recamier in Saint-Germain, this civilised, chic four-star deserves to become a cult hero/heroine as well.

LE CINQ CODET 🖤🥖🥂
This gleaming white wedge of gorgeous 1930s architecture, which juts out like the prow of an ocean liner on a quiet side street in the smart 7th arrondissement, could be mistaken for another block of smart flats housing the neighbourhood's wealthy young professionals. Which is precisely what Parisian interior designer Jean-Philippe Nuel intended when he revamped this former France Telecom building into a stylish little five-star hotel. The arty pied-à-terre vibe intensifies the moment you step into the lobby, which at first glance has the appearance of someone's elegant sitting room. Le Cinq Codet has 67 bedrooms, all with custom-designed side tables, low-slung sofas, parquet floors, large-scale photographs and abstract art.
They include a cosy duplex with a bath beside the bed, and the ultimate showstopper, Room 402, a massive penthouse with a wraparound terrace and views of the Eiffel Tower. There's also a miniature spa (the replenishing Omega 3 Body Polish is great) with an Asian-style heated outdoor whirlpool, and a charming bar and restaurant where simple suppers - creamy vegetable soup, fresh grilled fish, soft chocolate cake - are served on the adjoining leafy terrace. The hotel is also steps away from the Musée Rodin and a short walk from the Musée d'Orsay. #париж #гидпопарижу #фрация #отелипарижа #тревелблог

Paris deserves its reputation as the most romantic city in the world. Its centre is small and ideal for visiting on foot, with every turn revealing a famous landmark, a cosy café, a smart boutique or a busy boulevard. There are hotels to suit every visitor, from the palatial to the contemporary, the trendsetting to the classical. Paris is also the home of great food and boasts a plethora of restaurants from traditional bistros to smart, trendy restaurants and Michelin-starred establishments.

Best time to go: April – or at any time of year, come to that - Paris is always a good idea, as Audrey Hepburn said.
