The luxury hotels that we seclect 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 bastians 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 Amalfi to city abodes in Paris, 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 cosmocrats 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.
A combination of country house familiarity and urban chill. A designer orchestration of salvaged pieces, crafted textiles, aged ceramics and bespoke furnishings that are housed in a traditional red-brick new build – this new luxury kid on the block gives TriBeCa the unpretentious grand hotel it so craved.
