Design Classic Local Lively

Gold. Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.

Silver. Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.

Bronze. They did this well. You’ll notice.

Listed. A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.

Design. Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Luxe. Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

Local. It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.

Heritage. A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.

Wellness. You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.

Classic. The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

Resort. A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
