From Turkey to Ireland: Handpicked Luxury Hotels Across the Globe

Amanruya
Bodrum, Turkey

A secluded retreat on Turkey's Bodrum Peninsula, Amanruya should be your next destination to experience something new. This getaway, from the ultra-luxury Aman Resorts, is deeply inviting, with a traditional village feel and top-tier service and amenities. Take an early-morning dip in the pool before setting out on an excursion—the more nautically inclined will love the opportunity to sail on the Aegean, but if you'd like to stay on land, Unesco-protected ruins and quaint villages abound. When the sun sets, head back to the resort for a delicious meal, where options range from sushi to elevated takes on traditional cuisines of the area. Wellness is a key part of each guest's stay here, but it's up to you to decide what that means, whether it be lounging beside the bay or getting a treatment at the ultra-advanced spa.

Take Me There

Pulitzer Amsterdam
Amsterdam, Netherlands

In Amsterdam's UNESCO World Heritage area sits Pulitzer Amsterdam, a distinctly Dutch hotel that seamlessly blends in to the architecture of the city, making visitors feel as though they're arriving more to a home than a hotel. Don't assume that means it's overly intimate, however—the independent, five-star hotel spans twenty-five restored Golden Age canal houses, which at one time set the scene for prosperous trade deals between merchants and played home to many notable Dutch aristocrats. Today, the design-forward hotel invites guests to enjoy their spacious rooms and suites, gorgeous private gardens, an award-winning bar, and a noteworthy restaurant serving beautifully crafted cuisine around the clock.

The River Lee
Cork, Ireland

Situated on the banks of its eponymous river in Cork, Ireland, The River Lee is a multi-award-winning hotel that exudes class without feeling pretentious. From the leather and brass accents at the highly-reviewed onsite restaurant, The River Club, to the soothing neutral tones adorning the spacious rooms, everything here feels like it was designed with hospitality and comforting warmth in mind. Families and leisure travelers in particular will delight in the proximity to all of the activities Cork has to offer, with shops featuring goods hand-made by local artisans around every corner—in particular, The English Market has been around since the 18th century, with some vendors whose families have been there for generations!

Take Me There

The Standard, London
London, UK

Located in the heart of King's Cross, The Standard London is a trendy, hyper-modern hotel at which you'll never get bored. The brutalist exterior and retro-chic interiors pay homage to the building's rich history as the Camden Town Hall Annex, while its rooms and suites boast stunning views of the city—some from your bathtub! The Standard's restaurants, bars, rooftop terrace and even library have become some of London's most sought-after destinations, offering guests and locals alike a chance to savor creative cuisine and craft cocktails while taking in unparalleled panoramic views of the capital.

Take Me There

Locanda Rossa
Capalbio, Italy

You'd be hard-pressed to find a person who doesn't dream of the hills of Tuscany—their stunning landscapes draped with sunbeams, olive groves, and more wine than you could possibly drink. Live out that dream at Locanda Rossa, a high-end retreat that still somehow feels down to earth. It's contemporary, but classic, with modern furnishings that sit in contrast to the stunning architecture. Wellness is a way of life here, whether that means taking a bike ride around the area, dining on top-notch local cuisine, or hitting the spa for a treatment you won't soon forget.
