To ask about the best hotel you’ve ever stayed at?

[CoffySalon]

I’m planning a trip and I’m curious about people’s experiences with hotels. What’s the best hotel you’ve ever stayed out and what made it stand out? Whether it’s the service, location, amenities, or something else, I’d love to hear your top recommendations!

@Delatron yes I quite liked the tawny but didn’t find the service that good

The Viceroy - Ubud Bali

Location, staff, food …… just phenomenal.

12 days of pure uninterrupted husband & me time 🫶🏻

le sirenuse in positano - the attention to detail and history made it stand out

Ahh yes I do know what you mean - it does let it down a bit.

The Atrium in Krakow. Absolutely bent over backwards with everything and the breakfast was amazing, a selection of meats, cheeses, breads, cereals, fruits, drinks. It would be quicker to list what wasn't provided! 5 minute walk and you were in the main square!

The Bellagio in Vegas. We’ve stayed 3 times and loved everything about it - food, entertainment, fountains, rooms and the 7 swimming pools! It just has the most incredible ‘life’ about the place which made me feel as if I was at the centre of everything.

St James Hotel in Paris

Chateau St Martin in Vance, rooms were huge, service second to none and the views across Antibes are spectacular.

St Regis on the Cornice in Abu Dhabi, you get your own Butler, the beach is stunning and nothing is too much trouble. The bedding luxurious and the bathroom is a grand size. We go every January.

Gleneagles, Scotland

wonderful

Portmeirion. Magical, even more interesting to explore when day trippers have gone.

The Emory in London or Atlantis Dubai. Both amazing attention to detail.

The Montreux Palace in Montreux. Was a competition win to the Montreux festival. We were in an amazing suite overlooking the lake with a massive balcony and his and her sinks in the bathroom. An amazing hotel! The breakfasts were amazing too!

One in a Harrogate many years ago for a medical conference relating the condition that DS1 has. It was ridiculously lavish and all I could think of was the cost of it.. and how this money could have gone into further research into the condition! We didn't even have to pay for ourselves... I don't know about the other delegates

I second Oberoi Hotels. Service and food is second to none. I commented on the scent of some josticks they’d been burning and they gave me a beautifully wrapped package of them when I left. Heaven.

The King Jason Protaras Cyprus
Adults only, The decor of the rooms is lovely. The food All Inc is to die for, location is great…nothing not to like! X

Hilton cologne

Blau parc, ibiza

I stayed there in 2011, loved it! Funnily enough I was trying to remember the name of it yesterday and here you appear!

The Ritz Carlton in Dubai, the Ritz and the Raffles in Singapore, the Shangri La in Sydney and London and the Ikos Andalusia. Due to the exceptional service, the quality of the rooms, the facilities, the food.

Villa Augusta, St Paul-troix-Chateaux, France. Beautiful boutique hotel in a lovely location with fabulous staff and a Michelin star chef.

Second this, we were picked up from the airport in a vintage rolls Royce, we’ve stayed in grander and more expensive hotels but Viroth’s staff seemed to guess what we needed before we asked!

The Shangri-la Penang

The Marriott Worsley
it was just lovely! Food amazing, bed comfortable, spa massages great, facilities clean and classy. I went to a wedding there is was gorgeous!

I'm glad someone mentioned El Remanso in Costa Rica, that's a beautiful property. Belmond properties are fabulous, such amazing service - I like it when people learn and remember your name. The top ones would be Das Cataratas at Iguacu and Palacio Nazarenas in Cusco. A lot of my favourites are made special for their location and the journey to reach them - tambopata research centre, Corcovado wilderness lodge, tranquilo bay, inkaterra Machu Picchu pueblo, Patagonia camp...

The Peninsula, Tokyo, personally. Also inspected some absolute blinding beauties around Japan - one of the most amazing was an 800 year old inn in Kyoto, think beautiful pine, rooms with carved murals, inlaid pearl boxes, food courses that were just stunningly amazing! Another cool one was a private mountain estate with individual log cabins that came with their own private butlers and grounds, with food freshly made from the ingredients grown on the estate's land and from their chickens etc. Ahhh, Japan has some truly stunning places.
