Hotel Nox
It may be in ultra-trendy Shoreditch, but the Ace Hotel has a homely feel
Ljubljana
Large windows with city views and four-poster beds with the added bonus of a curtain rail so guests can really shut off for a good night’s sleep are just two of the features found at this new design hotel in Ljubljana’s Šentvid area. Distinctive from the off, due to the netting-like covering that lights up one side of the building at night, the Hotel Nox is well placed for the airport and ski slopes and comes some unexpected extras, including its own wine cellar. From €54, book at hotels.easyJet.com
Olivia Balmes Hotel Barcelona
According to the blurb on this modern, city hotel, which opened over the summer, it’s been designed to satisfy even the most demanding of guests. If those guest requirements include minimalistic, high-quality furnishings; huge, smartly kitted out open-plan rooms and a glorious rooftop pool with
views across Barcelona to match, then they’ll have nothing to complain about. From €118, book at hotels.easyJet.com
Ace Hotel London
Trendy Shoreditch, in east London, is a fitting setting for the first Ace hotel to
open its doors outside of the US. The group has already made a name for itself as North America’s coolest boutique chain and its latest opening furthers the reputation: some of its boldly decorated 258 rooms even include decks or guitars, while DJs play nightly in the lobby. From €123, book at hotels.easyJet.com
Riad Kaiss
Nira Caledonia
Orlowska Apartments
Marrakech
Edinburgh
Krakow
Enjoy views of the surrounding Medina from the terrace of this lavish bolthole which has a pool, hammam, two patios and a fountain, all within five-minutes’ walk of the main sites. From €166, book at hotels.easyJet.com
Duck-feather beds and chandeliers in every room ensure this beautiful five-star Georgian townhouse is every bit as enchanting as the views of Edinburgh Castle on the horizon. From £159, book at hotels.easyJet.com
Antique furniture and historic detail combine with mod-cons to ensure these beautiful apartments reflect their 17th-century setting – all without compromising on comfort. From £62, book at hotels.easyJet.com
