A hand-picked collection of places to stay: Authentic, Small-scale, One of a kind!
A famous French shoe designer opening a hotel in Portugal… it sounds a bit strange, doesn’t it?! But Christian Louboutin has loved coming to the west coast in the Alentejo below Lisbon for years and also has his own home there. So it was a logical step to unleash his creative brain on a new small-scale luxury hotel in authentic Melides.
He created a beautifully eclectic place where his love of art and travel come together in perfect balance. Of course, with every comfort and quality.
A hidden urban oasis in pretty Paris…. mais oui! I found a nice little Hideaway for you in the 9th arrondissement, a neighbourhood with lots of young Parisians, good (and affordable) restaurants and the tastiest local foodie shops. Montmartre is around the corner as is Opéra Garnier and a couple of big department stores. It is a contemporary place where wellbeing and sustainability go hand in hand. There is also a yoga studio, wellness area, restaurant (plant-based) and bar.
This Local Hideaway represents the Douro Valley at its best and is its personification. A feast for the senses and absolutely worth a stay. A fantastic wine estate, for connoisseurs, epicureans and outdoor enthusiasts. Combine your citybreak in Porto with trip to the Douro Valley and you have the best of both worlds!
Porto is ‘booming’ and more and more new hotels are popping up in the city. Like this ‘new kid in town’, a fantastic Hideaway in the middle of the old town and situated in an old soap factory. 28 rooms in different classes but all very spacious and stylishly decorated. You live like a local here as all rooms have a kitchenette. Garden with a swimming pool and spa completes this boutique city hotel. And then there are several weekly activities organised, befitting the hotel and free for hotel guests. What a nice addition! Here, a lot of thought has gone into what the contemporary city traveller considers important when staying. A wonderful Hideaway!
