To ask what is the best hotel you’ve stayed in?

[Hairbrush123]

I bloody love a nice hotel. What is your favourite hotel you’ve stayed in?

Mine would be:
Crowne Plaza Changi (Singapore) and got upgraded to the roof terrace suite. Absolutely loved it.
The Langham Hong Kong and stayed in the junior suite!

Oooh great thread;

Chedi, Muscat
Taj Palace, Mumbai
Langham Place, Hong Kong
Marsa Malaz, Doha
Alila Diwa, Goa

Best out of these, probably the Taj.

Oh to travel again 😭

Pan Pacific, Singapore (with a butler)
Shangri la, Penang (rasan sayan)
Shangri la, Muscat (Husn)

Oh and the Datai, Langkawi.

And Barefoot in the Andaman Islands.

Argh!

Bucket and spade holidays with the kids - Sani and Ikos resorts and Costa Navarino/Romanos in Greece

Has anyone stayed at Kandalama in Sri Lanka?

The calabash in Grenada , so special

Damn you OP, I NEED A HOLIDAY!!

The Calabash in Grenada.

@Jaxhog the Kandalama is such a cool place, feels like you’re totally surrounded by nature!

Anantara Palazzo Naiadi Rome Was lovely. Amazing food - drinks in the bar were pricey though.

Stayed in a lovely hotel in Hawaii as well but can't recall the name if it.

Hotel National de Cuba, Havana. Tatty round the edges, oozes history and charm.
The View, Monument Valley, US. Drive round the monuments as the sun goes down, eat marvelous stodgy frybread, marvel at the 'big sky'.

Grand Tremezzo on Lake Como. Oberoi Lombok. Would cheerfully bite your hand off to be back in either right now.

Ooh @queenatom you lucky thing. It's next on my list. That and the Lake Palace!

The Corinthia in London. Stayed there on its soft opening weekend….so quiet, huge beds…

Hermitage inn on Nevis. Lots of separate houses, monkeys on the lawn, we were the only people there for a couple of the days. Very high staff to guest ratio!

Has anyone stayed at Kandalama in Sri Lanka?

Yes, we have. Absolutely fabulous (and cheap!)

In a previous job I stayed at some amazing hotels for work:

Burj al Arab, Dubai. Very soon after it first opened.Hated it, a bit fur coat and no knickers for my taste. I preferred Le Royal Meridien.
Ritz Carlton, Dubai in the Club level, circa 2005 was superb. No idea what it's like now.
Ritz Carlton and Mandarin Oriental Singapore, loved both.
Ritz Carlton, Montreal.
Cape Grace, Cape Town.

For city leisure travel I'm very fond of Four Seasons, favourites being George V Paris and Hong Kong.

A fabulous family resort halfway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale is Acqualina Resort. It's lovely for couples too.

I miss travel...

Hyatt, Hua Hin. Rooms were nice but the pool was AWESOME!

The Fairmont Singapore is my favourite, but I’ve also stayed in a Holiday Inn in Singapore (with free upgrade) and the service at both has been second to none (as has the air con!!).

A travel lodge 🤣 too stingy

This place in Positano - Agave.

Oh my gosh, difficult to choose, The Hilton Bora Bora (overwater bungalow) or The Felix in Kanchanaburi where we thought we had arrived in paradise. Toss a coin - both fabulous in different ways.

Hotel kuu in Kyoto was beautiful for the traditional decor etc

Das Tegernsee in Bavaria - stunning breakfast terrace with views over the lakes and mountains.
