Exceeding expectations with every stay
We've been handpicking the best small luxury hotels for decades, so it was only a matter of time before we introduced the Finest Collection.
According to us, our trusted panel of experts, top-tier guests and highly trained team of mystery inspectors, Finest Collection hotels are elevated, exclusive escapes offering extraordinary experiences. Whether gliding down the slopes of glitzy Gstaad to your chic chalet or savouring a moonlit dinner in an impressive 19th-century fortress, these are destination hotels to write home about.
The allure of the Finest Collection extends beyond each hotel's doorstep – they stand tall in the world's most sought-after destinations, from Santorini's caldera-facing cliffs to Virginia’s rich tapestry of rolling hills, deep valleys and forested dales. In fact, these perfectly placed properties are destinations in themselves, which you'll want to plan your entire trip around.
These are the names you expect to see on editorial hot lists year after year, the industry icons that are quietly luxurious yet known the world over for their characterful hospitality. These are the pin-up properties of the luxury travel world that fellow hoteliers look to for inspiration, the bar-raising, game-changing, ever-evolving hotels that could easily rest on their laurels but choose to keep pushing the boundaries of hospitality greatness.
