Valldemossa Hotel

The IT Mallorca hotel group has expanded its exclusive portfolio of five-star hotels in Mallorca with the impressive Hotel Valldemossa. It is located near the historic village of the same name, in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Sierra de Tramuntana mountains in the north of the island. Each hotel in the growing IT Mallorca family offers an authentic experience in its respective region of Mallorca.

The Hotel Valldemossa, once part of the palace of the Carthusian monastery of King Sancho of Mallorca and later given to a nearby monastery, is housed in a recently renovated 19th-century mansion. The driving force behind every project of owner Miguel Conde and his wife, architect Cristina Marti, is to breathe new life into these historic buildings, preserving the beautiful details of their Mallorcan roots and adding a modern touch to each location through art, interior design, and gastronomy.

Breakfast is served on the sun-drenched veranda, accompanied by birdsong and the bleating of sheep. In the evenings, the space transforms into the De Tokio A Lima bar and restaurant. The chef's seasonal dishes blend Japanese, Peruvian, and Mediterranean flavors with produce from local farmers. Perched high on a hill in the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Valldemossa seems untouched by time, yet it's just a five-minute walk from the hotel.

The World's Only Icebreaking Cruiser

Le Commandant Charcot is ideally suited for polar expeditions. The ship can reach largely unexplored regions, such as the geographic North Pole and Northeast Greenland in the Arctic, as well as the Weddell Sea in Antarctica. Internationally renowned architect Jean-Philippe Nuel designed several interior spaces on Le Commandant Charcot. The 430 m² wellness area is located on Deck 9 and includes a relaxation lounge with an indoor pool and a detox bar offering everything from smoothies and juices to exquisite tea blends.

In the Blue Lagoon, you can relax in water heated to 27 to 37 °C while the polar landscape glides by. Thanks to its innovative hull design, the ship can navigate through ice up to 2.5 meters thick. This unique hull makes Le Commandant Charcot the first PC2-class expedition ship and the world's most powerful and safest passenger ship for polar voyages. PONANT has opted for one of the most environmentally friendly propulsion systems using liquefied natural gas (LNG) and will also incorporate biogas into the ship's LNG supply in the future.

Secrets Moxché Playa del Carmen

Secrets Moxché is one of the lesser-known five-star all-inclusive hotels on Mexico's Caribbean coast and boasts 485 rooms. Upon entering the impressive lobby, your gaze is immediately drawn to the heart of the resort – the pool area with its lagoon. Here you'll find a private sandy beach with sun loungers, the elevated Bamboo restaurant, and The Cove beach bar. Just before reaching the main pool, you'll discover several artificial cenotes, hidden between entrances surrounded by rock walls.

The Mantarray Pool Bar is a swim-up bar at the end of one of the larger pools near the beach. Few guests frequent the actual beach area, which is considerably quieter and also offers drinks. The small tiki huts resemble upturned bird nests and provide space for two sun loungers as well as plenty of shade. The Seasoul Beach Restaurant with its outdoor terrace is also located here, while the ten other restaurants are housed in the main wing. Guests in higher room categories will find a rooftop garden with a private pool and fantastic views on the top floor.

With Hapag-Lloyd to the Arctic

In 2021, three new ships joined the fleet with the commissioning of the new HANSEATIC nature, HANSEATIC inspiration, and HANSEATIC spirit. These small, agile, and state-of-the-art first-class expedition ships boast the highest ice class for passenger vessels.

The new ships accommodate 230 guests, and even 199 guests on Antarctic voyages and the Spitsbergen circumnavigation. These ships set new standards in expedition cruising and offer numerous unique features that enhance the expedition experience. Two retractable glass balconies on the sun deck give guests the sensation of floating directly above the water.

The 120 cabins and suites range from the Panorama Cabin at 21 m² to the Grand Suite at 71 m². There are also exclusively outside cabins, almost all of which feature a private balcony or French balcony. In addition to their respective specialty restaurants, each expedition ship features two further restaurants: a main restaurant with 178 seats and a bistro with 184 indoor and outdoor seats, a grill, and a show kitchen.

Rosewood Mayakoba – The Best Hotel in Playa del Carmen

Mayakoba, on Mexico's Caribbean coast, is one of the world's largest resort complexes. Built on 2.5 square kilometers of jungle, this eco-friendly resort comprises several luxury hotels. Known for its environmentally conscious design, the resort preserves 145 hectares of mangrove forest to maintain the habitat of over 300 animal species, including monkeys and raccoons.

A team of biologists is working to restore the coral reef and protect sea turtles. The 13-kilometer network of lagoon channels can be explored not only by quiet electric boats but also by kayak. From its idyllic white sand beach to its inspiring location on a freshwater lagoon, Rosewood Mayakoba offers breathtaking natural beauty.

It is one of four resorts connected by a network of canals and features 129 suites, numerous restaurants, a wellness spa, a beach club, and three large pools. Among the most attractive rooms are the Lagoon Suites, accessible by boat. These spacious suites feature a large bathroom with a round bathtub and outdoor shower. Outside, a small garden awaits, complete with a private pool and comfortable lounge furniture. Guests with ocean views can book one of our Rooftop Ocean View Suites or a Beachfront Studio Suite.

The restaurants emphasize regional cuisine and create innovative dishes with great finesse, such as Mexican Eggs Benedict. The Aqui Me Quedo Beach Club is exclusively for adults. The spa, located on its own island in the lagoon, is a peaceful retreat with winding paths leading to a private cenote in the jungle. Another highlight is the personalized pillowcases embroidered with guests' initials, which can be taken home as a souvenir.

St. Regis Riviera Maya

Opened in March 2023, the St. Regis Hotel is located about 40 minutes south of Cancún. Even from above, its avant-garde architecture of overlapping semicircles is striking. The shape of the curved structures is inspired by the Pleiades, also known as the Seven Sisters, which the indigenous Maya considered the birthplace of their ancestors. The Mayan calendar is also reflected in the public areas and guest rooms through the use of textiles. The green marble sinks and the oval mirrors suspended above them in the bathrooms are inspired by cenotes, the Spanish term for underground, water-filled limestone sinkholes. Intricately carved walnut headboards echo the patterns of ancient Mayan textiles, and Mexican ceramic lamps beside the beds mimic starlight.

All 124 rooms and 19 suites feature terraces with lounge chairs, and some even have private plunge pools. Eight restaurants and bars offer a diverse culinary selection. Near the three large pools, the Beach Club offers a generous lunch buffet. The expansive, fine sandy beach is furnished with loungers and sunbeds under colorful awnings.

Hotel Motto Vienna

While classical art meets trendy fashion labels in Vienna's 7th district, Neubau, the neighboring 6th district, Mariahilf, is home to Café Savoy and Felixx Bar – popular meeting places for the LGBTQ+ community. Located right on the border between the two districts, Hotel Motto, which opened in 2021, is the new hotspot for Vienna's bohemians. Schlacher's Hotel Motto blends 1920s Paris with Scandinavian coziness and numerous design details to create a true work of art. Every fabric, every doorknob, every cocktail glass reflects Schlacher's personal taste and transforms the hotel into a playground of diverse styles.

In the 83 rooms and eight suites, floral patterns on the walls mingle with brass elements from industrial design. Summer is best enjoyed on the large rooftop terrace or in the bar of the Chez Bernard restaurant on the 7th floor directly below. Lush greenery forms a harmonious contrast to the architecturally impressive glass dome.

Madi Paidi – The New Boutique Hotel in Bangkok

With the opening of the Madi Paidi Bangkok, the Autograph Collection celebrates its exciting debut in Thailand. With only 56 rooms, the hotel may be small in this metropolis, but it fills the gap for a charming five-star hotel. The elegant, wood-clad facade, lush greenery, and green roof blend harmoniously into the natural surroundings. The rooms range in size from 32 to 56 square meters and offer ample space for relaxation, including a living area with a sofa and amenities such as a premium coffee machine, a large LED TV, and a rain shower. A particular highlight is the rooftop terrace with a pool and fitness center.

The fusion of tradition and modernity is also evident at EKKALUCK. This elegant restaurant provides the setting for a stylish breakfast with refined variations of familiar dishes such as poached eggs. In the evening, it transforms into a gourmet restaurant serving Thai cuisine.

Madi Paidi Bangkok is located on a tree-lined residential street near the Thong Lor Skytrain station. The upscale Emporium shopping mall is just a short walk away, as is Krubb Bathhouse, the new hotspot after the closure of Babylon Sauna.
