The most beautiful hotels to visit
You’ll fell spoiled for choice to spend a night in one of the mythical hotels of the world. In Paris, it takes place at the Ritz with an obligatory detour via the Hemingway bar. In Singapore, don’t forget to enjoy a Singapore Sling at the Raffles Hotel. Finally, the Savoy in London is a temple of refinement. Alongside the hotels you will have the advantage to visit the countries around the world.
1. VIROTH’S HOTEL
In first place in the ranking, we find a superb Viroth’s Hotel in Cambodia. Located in the heart of Siem Reap city, in the province of the same name, the hotel is more precisely in the vibrant Wat Bo district. Its location is more than ideal, as the hotel is not only near the river, but also the Old Market, where it is ideal to go out and shop, and visit the Angkor temples.
In addition, the hotel is located in a very peaceful environment. The hotel itself is very inspired by the 1950s, with a vintage design but at the same time very modern. What we like a lot, too, in the decor, are the white walls which provide a magnificent contrast with the many colorful and elegant objects that complete the look. There are also several gardens and green areas, in addition to having, of course, a large outdoor swimming pool for swimming or just lounging.
2. TULEMAR BUNGALOWS AND VILLAS
The Tulemar Bungalows & Villas offers two types of stays. As the name suggests, there are bungalows, but also villas. This is because before, the bungalows located on the beach were part of another “resort”, but this is no longer the case. Now, all these homes are part of the same “resort”.
The Tulemar Bungalows & Villas complex is located a short walk from Manuel Antonio National Park, on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica. The park often returns among the rankings of the most beautiful parks in the world. The resort itself is located in Tulemar Gardens, which is 33 acres and falls directly onto its own private beach, Tulemar Beach, which is about a 15-minute walk away. Alternatively, there’s also Manuel Antonio public beach which is about a 10-minute cab ride from the resort, as is the national park. As we said, these are bungalows and villas that make up the place. There are 34, to be more precise.
3. UMAID BHAWAN PALACE JODHPUR
For a completely exotic stay, India is undoubtedly a very popular destination. On the other hand, choosing an exotic trip does not necessarily mean that you have to skimp on luxury! For those who would like to discover a whole different culture and stay in a most chic environment, the Umaid Bhawan Palace Jodhpur is a hotel of choice.
Located in Jodhpur, nicknamed the “Blue City” because most of the houses in the city are painted this color, the hotel is part of the TAJ chain. The chain owns 100 hotels in more than 62 locations, and only offers the most luxurious in each one. The one in Jodhpur is no exception to the rule! Already, looking only from the outside, we can see what we are dealing with, with its breathtaking architecture!
4. HANOI LA SIESTA HOTEL AND SPA
Hanoi is a very touristic city in Vietnam. It is also the capital of the country. For those who would like to go there to visit all its temples, lakes and museums, Hanoi La Siesta Hotel and Spa is an easy choice. The hotel is part of the Hanoi Elegance company, which has several other resorts in Vietnam. The Siesta Hotel and Spa is the most recent of these. This is a superb hotel that offers a peaceful and warm environment, while being just as luxurious as the other hotels of the company.
La Siesta Hotel and Spa is in a great location, directly on the sur Ma May, in the old quarter. Its location represents the place well: it mixes style and modernity with the charms of the old quarter of Hanoi. The hotel is very close to Hoan Kiem Lake, but also to several other major tourist attractions. A bus is also available to customers for those who would like to visit attractions that are a little further away or not within walking distance.
5. GIGILI LANKANFUSHI MALDIVES
When we think of a paradisiacal vacation, we often think of these houses on stilts, with the glass floor thanks to which we can admire the turquoise water under our feet. Well Gili Lankanfushi, in the Maldives, a South Asian country in the Indian Ocean, offers just that. It is not for nothing that the hotel is ranked fifth in the Trip Advisor ranking. The perfect way to get away from reality!
Gili Lankanfushi is 45 villas on the water, on a small island in the country. It is the largest water villa complex in the world. Some of them are attached to a small wooden corridor, always on the water, while others are completely alone in the world, recluse a little further, for the most complete privacy. What they all have in common, however, is that they are all constructed from environmentally responsible materials. This is indeed a very important value for the complex.
6. HOTEL BELVEDERE
Ah, Italy! A country that so many people dream of… and with good reason! Even though tourists traditionally turn to Rome, Milan, Florence and Venice, there are so many other cities that are also worth a visit. Among these there is, among others, Riccione. Located above “the boot”, this is a city that has experienced great tourist development since the 1980s. It is now recognized for its trendy aspect, thanks to its numerous and famous nightclubs.
This tourist “boom” therefore explains the great concentration of hotels in the region. Moreover, among these, there is one which still makes its place in the rankings of hotels in Italy, in Europe, but also in the world: the Belvedere. This is a four star hotel which is located very close to luxury stores and famous nightclubs. The city of Riccione being located so close to the Adriatic Sea, there are several beaches there. These are only about 50 meters from the hotel, which is a big plus. That is why the Belvedere has a list where these beaches are compiled, so that they can direct tourists to the one that suits them best.
7. THE NANTUCKET HOTEL AND RESORT
In seventh position in the Trip Advisor ranking, we find a hotel a little closer to us, in North America: the Nantucket Hotel and Resort. For the little geography lesson, you should know that Nantucket is an American island located in the Atlantic Ocean. To give you an idea, the island, which in Algonquian means “distant country”, is located 4 hours drive from Boston, and therefore approximately 9 hours drive from Montreal. It is therefore easily accessible by ferry.
Classified as a historic site in the United States, the island is a popular tourist destination, mainly in the summer. During the hot period, the population increases from 10,000 to 50,000 people. The most popular hotel in the area, which receives a good portion of all these tourists throughout the year, is the Nantucket Hotel and Resort. The hotel was built in 1891, but was recently renovated in 2012. This means that the exterior is still classic of the time, while the interior meets all tourist needs. on vacation in a contemporary hotel.
8. LA RÉSERVE PARIS
For those seeking refinement, the La Réserve hotel is the perfect hotel. The five-star hotel, which is synonymous with luxury and elegance, is located in the heart of the beautiful city of Paris, in the 8th arrondissement. Indeed, when you stay there, you are only a few steps from the Seine and the Champs-Élysées.
Despite this, La Réserve is still synonymous with calm and privacy, because right in front, there is a veritable curtain of trees which give the place a little more private character. La Réserve is, as we have said, a very luxurious hotel. There are 40 refined accommodations there, all of which have their own butler. Available and dedicated to take care of travelers, the staff is present and attentive, but at the same time discreet. The 40 apartments, all recalling the 19th century with marble fireplaces and noble materials, are categorized into ten different “types” of accommodation, ranging from the Prestige room to THE suite, the Grand Palais suite. From this, moreover, we have a panoramic view of the City of Light. On the other hand, we are not really left out if we stay in another apartment.
9. NAYARA SPRINGS
For those who desire a stay in the heart of nature, the Nayara Springs is your ideal hotel. Indeed, the complex is located in the Arenal Volcano National Park, where we find one of the largest concentrations of tropical plants. There is a flora and fauna to which we have access nowhere else. The park is popular with tourists for its thermal waters and its volcano, the youngest and most active in the country.
In order not to disturb the surrounding jungle, a 250-foot pedestrian bridge has been built over the forest and its trees. This is the only way for travelers to get to Nayara Springs, giving it a lot of privacy. By setting foot there, you can immerse yourself in the rich vegetation of Costa Rica. The adults-only resort includes several luxurious villas, but also two large swimming pools that open directly into the forest where you can admire the toucans while swimming (wow!).
10. HANOI LA SIESTA HOTEL TRENDY
Oh no, you are not dreaming! This is indeed the second hotel from the Vietnamese Hanoi Elegance chain to make the list. While we find the Hanoi La Siesta Hotel and Spa in fourth place, we also find the Hanoi La Siesta Hotel Trendy in tenth rank of the most beautiful hotels. This is not found very far from the first location. It is therefore also near temples, lakes and museums.
Located east of the Old Town, Hanoi La Siesta Hotel Trendy is the newest hotel in the chain. With this hotel, we wanted to create a different atmosphere: younger, more present and more modern, like the Vietnamese capital. This is why metal and glass are the predominant materials, while blue and gray are the main colors, for a much more contemporary look.
11. SHINTA MANI SHACK
Here too, we are entitled to a double as Hanoi, the city of Siem Reap, in Cambodia, is also found twice in the ranking of Trip Advisor. Awesome, isn’t it? Here, it’s the Shinta Mani Shack, located in the heart of the French Quarter and very close to the “Old Market”, the perfect place to go out and shop. In addition, when you stay there, you are only seven kilometers from Angkor Wat, one of the largest temples in the country and without a doubt one of the most important tourist attractions.
Opened in 2013, the hotel is still quite new in the city landscape. If the Shinta Mani Shack is so beautiful, it is because behind the place is the architect Bill Bensley, who is known to be “the king of exotic resorts”. He has worked on more than 100 hotels in 26 different countries and we recognize his sophisticated touch. For the Shinta Mani Shack, he opted for a somewhat retro atmosphere, with mirrored walls.
12. KAYAKAPI PREMIUM CAVES
It’s not every day that we have the chance to sleep in a site that appears on the UNESCO list. However, in Ürgüp, which is found in the historic and protected region of Cappadocia, it is possible! On site, there is the Kayakapi Premium Caves hotel. As the name suggests, the hotel is located directly in caves that date back several hundred years.
The Kayakapi Premium Caves is made up of 43 rooms, suites and mansions which are all built within the historic site. It goes without saying that this is an experience that cannot be experienced anywhere else. Whether you choose the smallest single bedroom or the large four-bed mansion with its own swimming pool, you are guaranteed a stay in the utmost of luxury.

The hotel is located in the city of Udaipur, South India. This is a five star hotel that sits on the shores of beautiful Lake Pichola, giving it pride of place and breathtaking views of the waterway.
Udaipur is also a city known for its calm and its many lakes. The hotel draws its aesthetics and architecture from the palaces of Rajasthan, a state known for its many and above all magnificent palaces. While the exterior is superb, so is the interior. Indeed, opened in 2009, The Leela Palace Udaipur is very contemporary and elegant and when you stay there, it feels like part of the Mewar dynasty. The hotel is made up of 80 rooms: 72 rooms, some of which have balconies, as well as 8 suites, each with a butler. There is also a swimming pool facing Lake Pichola, a spa and two restaurants.
14. HOTEL 41
One of the most famous hotels in London is without a doubt the Hotel 41. Indeed, since its opening in 1998, the five-star hotel has received several awards and appears on various lists and rankings, including this one!
What makes it famous is its location. Not only is Hotel 41 located literally steps away from royalty and the famous Buckingham Palace, but it is also close to two major tube stations which provide access to all the other tourist attractions to visit in London.
Apart from that, what tourists particularly appreciate about the luxury hotel is the comfort offered. On site, there are 30 chic accommodations, separated between rooms and suites, and besides, an interesting fact: no room is the same. Despite everything, there is still a feeling of uniqueness, because each accommodation keeps its own black and white theme.
15. BAROS MALDIVES

There is only the hotel there, and you have to take a short 25-minute boat ride from the airport to get there. Heaven!
