Luxury

Ask a group of travellers to choose their favourite hotel from a list and you’re likely to get different choices for lots of different reasons.

What makes one five-star hotel better than another?

Is it the décor and the quality of furnishings? Or is the feeling you’re being treated like royalty as you wander around the hotel? Perhaps it’s the combination of a stunning swimming pool and impressive spa. Or it might be something as simple as the pink rubber duck sitting on the rim of your bathtub.

A luxury experience is a combination of several things and many things combine to make a luxury hotel or travel experience special for you.
