Travel tuesday: Turkish Opulence

March 15th, 2011

The shape of this beautiful ‘cave’ structure is what really makes this hotel in Ürgüp, Cappadocia, Turkey stand out.  Precious decorations and beautiful antique furnishings enhance the atmosphere and luxurious comfort of the 12 individually decorated rooms.  High ceilings, gold trimmings, marble flooring… I just love the grandeur!

Hotel Fox gets a makeover

I absolutely LOVE the decor of this hotel!! 

For the launch of the Volkswagen Fox, 21 international artists from the fields of graphic design, urban art and illustration turned Hotel Fox in Copenhagen, Denmark into an exciting and creative lifestyle hotel (with fantastic results I might add!)

There are 61 rooms in total, and each room is an individual piece of art – from graphic design, fantastic street art and Japanese Manga to spaced out fantasies.

Amazing don’t you think?  Not sure I could actually get any sleep with some of the designs, though!

The stunning Chateau De Bagnols is a castle located in the midst of the vineyards of Beaujolais, France. The restoration of many of the 21 rooms has revealed the most remarkable Renaissance and 18th century wall and ceiling frescoes.  How amazing is that?!  The decor is just fabulous and really takes you back to a bygone era..

The Secret Garden…

It looks like the snow is set to get worse, folks!  I’m quite thankful I haven’t made any plans to travel in the near future because most airports across the country seem to have been affected one way or another. 

One place I would love to go to though is Provence; albeit only because I want to stay in Jardins Secrets, a beautiful four star hotel which oozes luxury French style at its best!  With its opulent decor and welcoming ‘home-from-home’ feel, I’m not sure I’d ever want to leave!

 

  The rich colour palette and warm lighting create a very welcoming ambiance.  What a beautiful headboard!

 I love the shabby-chic feel of this bathroom, its so romantic…

I’ve just been reading about a fantastic hotel located in Stockholm over on Emma’s blog and I just had to share these images with you all!

Named Story, the modern four star hotel is situated in the city centre, in the upper-class neighbourhood of Östermalm.  The inspiration behind the interior design was developed from old, New York-style rundown restaurants and bohemian Paris hotels, creating a personal and urban feeling.

I love the rich bursts of colour seen throughout (especially the deep purple) and the modern art on the walls.  Aren’t the vases pretty in the picture above, all with different types of flower?

Story is an clever mix of heritage sophistication and contemporary innovation, adapting original features from the period building,  whilst introducing bespoke design pieces throughout.  I always think it’s important to maintain the original features if possible.

Filled with original wallpapers and wooden flooring along with eclectic contemporary pieces, the hotel is the ideal mix between comforting and cutting edge.  I just love the sinks, aren’t they beautiful?!!
