The luxury hotels that we select under the label of The Luxurians offer a modern approach to the world of luxury and although steeped in the history of the Grand Dame Hotels, our little edit is urban, cool and contemporary - where luxury is a chilled affair.

Service prevails at these luxurian bastions of the good life where design plays with the traditional and history is without the pomp. These are the suave hotel addresses from coastal resorts in Italy to city abodes in Antwerp, where imposing, classic luxury is delivered with a light, modern touch. Where the international class of business leaders, pleasure seekers and creative innovators go when they want attentive service and Michelin-starred food, all in stylish surrounds.

These are the places where the confident cosmo-crats and their communities hook-up, network and create. Where true luxury arrives with no fuss, and where heritage comes without baggage.

This is the LUXURIAN TRAVEL EDIT.
