<strong>MGallery</strong><br />

“Unique hotels, where every stay<br />

is filled with emotion and discovery”.


Hostal Nicolas de Ovando, Santo Domingo - Dominican Republic<br />

PREFACE<br />

An exceptional collection and growing fast<br />

With <strong>the</strong> launch of <strong>the</strong> first <strong>MGallery</strong> guide, we invited you to discover a<br />

collection of forty hotels that didn’t conform to <strong>the</strong> norm. Hotels that promised<br />

travellers stopping <strong>the</strong>re moments full of discovery and feeling. So you could relive<br />

<strong>the</strong> Golden Age of <strong>the</strong> Kingdom of Siam at Hotel Muse in Bangkok, experience<br />

<strong>the</strong> ultimate in wellbeing at <strong>the</strong> Capovaticano Resort Thalasso & Spa Hotel in<br />

<strong>the</strong> heart of Calabria, facing <strong>the</strong> Aeolian Islands and <strong>the</strong> Stromboli volcano.<br />

Or follow in <strong>the</strong> footsteps of Sir Winston Churchill at St Ermin’s, <strong>MGallery</strong>’s first<br />

hotel in London.<br />

Whe<strong>the</strong>r situated in <strong>the</strong> middle of a city or in decidedly unusual settings, <strong>the</strong>y<br />

all possess <strong>the</strong>ir own remarkable personality and stand out for <strong>the</strong>ir unique style.<br />

With around fifty locations, <strong>MGallery</strong> is arousing increasing interest from both<br />

hoteliers and owners, and will soon have over one hundred hotels.<br />

<strong>MGallery</strong> has decided to marry its growth to a renewed visual identity, even<br />

more elegant and distinctive.<br />

I am proud to present to you <strong>the</strong> brand’s new logo in this 2012 edition of <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>MGallery</strong> guide, designed to match <strong>the</strong> spirit and aspirations of <strong>the</strong> collection.<br />

It was <strong>the</strong> character and singularity of <strong>the</strong> <strong>MGallery</strong> hotels that attracted our<br />

ambassador, Kristin Scott Thomas, a charismatic actress with a rare charm and<br />

elegance, who perfectly embodies <strong>the</strong> philosophy of our brand.<br />

Having attended <strong>the</strong> major events of 2011, Kristin Scott Thomas has also been<br />

involved in <strong>the</strong> creation of this 2012 edition of our guide.<br />

In <strong>the</strong>se pages, she invites you to have a look at her personal travel notes and<br />

shares a few of her favourites and memories with you.<br />

Welcome to a world of exception.<br />

EDITORIAL<br />

A year ago, I was offered an unexpected role…<br />

that of ambassador for <strong>the</strong> <strong>MGallery</strong> collection. And I<br />

must confess that this first year has been one filled with<br />

emotions and events.<br />

After having participated in <strong>the</strong> launch of this unique<br />

collection, I went to Hanoi for <strong>the</strong> opening of <strong>the</strong> Hôtel<br />

de l’Opéra, a special place I urge you to discover…<br />

You’ll be sure to be seduced by <strong>the</strong> remarkable charm<br />

of this hotel, set in <strong>the</strong> very heart of <strong>the</strong> city, where <strong>the</strong><br />

highly <strong>the</strong>atrical décor is like a change of scenery in<br />

itself.<br />

As with all <strong>MGallery</strong> hotels, <strong>the</strong> Hôtel de l’Opéra boasts<br />

additional flair and a very specific feel, which for me is<br />

an essential source of inspiration…<br />

I also greatly enjoy sharing with you some of my<br />

memories of o<strong>the</strong>r places through my travel notes.<br />

Throughout <strong>the</strong> pages of this second edition of <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>MGallery</strong> guide you’ll discover some of my most<br />

recent absolute favourites… Amsterdam, with its striking<br />

combinations and its vivid palette of contrasts, Cabourg<br />

and its gourmet treasures from <strong>the</strong> hedged farmlands of<br />

Normandy, or London, <strong>the</strong> city of endless possibilities.<br />

I hope that <strong>the</strong>se exclusive secrets will awaken your<br />

desire to travel and open doors to unique experiences<br />

for you, in ever more surprising and exceptional places.<br />

Yours truly,<br />

Kristin Scott Thomas<br />

Some of <strong>the</strong>se are unique in <strong>the</strong>ir interior and<br />

exterior design, <strong>the</strong> signature work of renowned<br />

architects. O<strong>the</strong>rs are one-offs because of <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

glorious past. Still o<strong>the</strong>rs reflect a specific project<br />

that was <strong>the</strong> motivation for <strong>the</strong>ir design. And <strong>the</strong>n<br />

<strong>the</strong>re are those that are uniquely<br />

located in <strong>the</strong> heart of a natural<br />

or historic site.<br />

Each one different, <strong>the</strong>se hotels<br />

invite you to share memorable<br />

moments – today.<br />

Learn <strong>the</strong> real recipe for Commercy Madeleines<br />

France<br />

Cabourg<br />

Time without end<br />

There are some places where time seems to stop so that you can fully appreciate <strong>the</strong> joy and intensity of every<br />

moment. Le Grand Hôtel Cabourg is one of <strong>the</strong>se very special places. Immortalised by Marcel Proust, who came<br />

up with a wonderful description of it in In Search of Lost Time, this <strong>the</strong>atre of emotions embodies <strong>the</strong> wonderful spirit<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Belle Epoque, with all of its romantic charm, dating back to <strong>the</strong> beginning of <strong>the</strong> 20 th century. Whatever<br />

season you choose to visit, Le Grand Hôtel Cabourg can give you <strong>the</strong> thing that’s most precious of all time.<br />

Time to savour local ingredients and delicacies from <strong>the</strong> sea… Time to enjoy a brunch or a memorable afternoon<br />

tea with hot chocolate and one of those famous ”madeleines”… Time to live, to enjoy <strong>the</strong> stunning rooms with <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

modern décor, with views of <strong>the</strong> sea or <strong>the</strong> delightful gardens flooded with flowers. It is <strong>the</strong> ideal place to relax<br />

in a dreamlike setting. Le Grand Hôtel Cabourg is one of <strong>the</strong> few hotels on <strong>the</strong> Normandy coast providing direct<br />

access to <strong>the</strong> beach. It is also <strong>the</strong> only one with a private beach with its own restaurant by <strong>the</strong> water.<br />

A ”must” for your next romantic getaway, as well as <strong>the</strong> perfect base to enjoy all <strong>the</strong> treasures <strong>the</strong> region has to<br />

offer, including horse-riding, sailing, golf, horse races or a trip to one of <strong>the</strong> ancient villages of <strong>the</strong> Pays d’Auge.<br />

A cross between an escape from it all and <strong>the</strong> most practical destination, where your dreams of well-being become<br />

a reality at last!<br />

Cabourg through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

When I think of Cabourg, I get a bit nostalgic about <strong>the</strong> time – a very long time ago – that<br />

I won <strong>the</strong> best actress award at <strong>the</strong> romantic film festival <strong>the</strong>re. I was invited to <strong>the</strong> Grand<br />

Hôtel, a majestic building with a breathtaking view of <strong>the</strong> sea. Even now, this hotel takes<br />

me back to that wonderful time, and when I go back <strong>the</strong>re, I feel <strong>the</strong> same excitement,<br />

<strong>the</strong> same emotions. I shut my eyes and imagine Marcel Proust, a regular here, looking for<br />

inspiration in this magical place.<br />

Just like <strong>the</strong> great author, I wander around Cabourg In search of lost time; I love strolling<br />

along <strong>the</strong> water’s edge, breathing in <strong>the</strong> sea air, scanning <strong>the</strong> horizon to try and imagine<br />

<strong>the</strong> English coast in <strong>the</strong> distance… sometimes I head off inland, to enjoy <strong>the</strong> beautiful<br />

countryside and sublime manor houses.<br />

My little breaks here are also all about food – an excuse to savour <strong>the</strong> regional specialities:<br />

camembert of course, but also Pont l’Evèque for <strong>the</strong> more daring among you, cider,<br />

oysters, seafood… And it is always a very emotional moment when I walk along <strong>the</strong><br />

D-Day landing beaches, where <strong>the</strong> sea washes over ano<strong>the</strong>r page in our history…<br />

Dinard<br />

A jewel between Belle Epoque and<br />

Modernity<br />

A garden town by <strong>the</strong> sea… that’s Dinard in a nutshell! But <strong>the</strong> legendary seaside resort also brims with art and<br />

history. Boasting an extraordinary architectural heritage with over 400 listed villas, Dinard’s sumptuous buildings<br />

will take you back in time to <strong>the</strong> turn of <strong>the</strong> 20 th century. Established at <strong>the</strong> height of <strong>the</strong> Belle Epoque, <strong>the</strong> Royal<br />

Emeraude promises you a romantic break in Brittany. Just a stone’s throw away from <strong>the</strong> beach, Plage de L’Ecluse,<br />

<strong>the</strong> casino and <strong>the</strong> Promenade du Clair de Lune, this rated hotel is all about escapism, with its unique boat-like<br />

architecture. Each of <strong>the</strong> 47 rooms has been fully renovated in styles based on 4 <strong>the</strong>mes: ocean liner staterooms,<br />

British India, <strong>the</strong> Orient Express and aviation. Onboard you’ll find all modern conveniences juxtaposed with a<br />

traditional Belle Epoque atmosphere. To top off your stay, why not visit <strong>the</strong> fitness centre where you can enjoy a<br />

massage or a Turkish bath? Or give yourself a treat in <strong>the</strong> hotel’s tearoom. Under a stunning glass roof, you can<br />

savour a delicious hot chocolate for afternoon tea, or choose from a menu of 21 different varieties of tea, served<br />

with fresh scones and cream.<br />

A cozy ambiance in <strong>the</strong> very heart<br />

of <strong>the</strong> City of Lights<br />

If <strong>the</strong> 16 th arrondissement is one of <strong>the</strong> most elegant neighbourhoods of <strong>the</strong> French capital, it is also <strong>the</strong> one that<br />

best symbolizes <strong>the</strong> Parisian lifestyle in <strong>the</strong> early 19 th century.<br />

A lifestyle you can enjoy yourself if you choose <strong>the</strong> Hôtel Baltimore for a stay steeped in sophistication and<br />

romanticism. Located just a few steps from <strong>the</strong> Champs-Elysées and <strong>the</strong> Eiffel Tower, this prestigious town house,<br />

built in 1892, was transformed into a hotel in 1920 and named after its first guest, Lord Baltimore. Inside, fabrics in<br />

warm colours, antique furniture and original paintings give <strong>the</strong> place a cosy atmosphere, conducive to relaxation<br />

and rest. Every day, you will enjoy an unparalleled quality of service that combines respect and discretion with an<br />

ongoing commitment to satisfy every wish of our guests who will have <strong>the</strong> opportunity to experience <strong>the</strong> ”good life”<br />

and fine dining at <strong>the</strong> Michelin-starred restaurant of <strong>the</strong> hotel.<br />

Much more than just a hotel, <strong>the</strong> Cour du Corbeau is a journey through history, time and <strong>the</strong> city. A souvenir<br />

of ano<strong>the</strong>r era, this building that was an Alsatian inn at <strong>the</strong> time of <strong>the</strong> Tsars and Princes, has traversed through<br />

five centuries of Strasbourg history and has accommodated such illustrious guests as Frederick II, King of Prussia,<br />

Voltaire, etc.<br />

Refinement, calm and serenity, <strong>the</strong> elegant interior features neo-baroque style furniture and materials as diverse<br />

as Vosges sandstone, cobblestones, copper, glass, granite and pebbles in an intimate atmosphere enhanced by<br />

touches of aubergine, raspberry and purple. Each of <strong>the</strong> 57 rooms is different and offers a sample of <strong>the</strong> history<br />

and culture of Alsace: rooms with refined lighting, rooms in <strong>the</strong> mansard roofs or rooms with a private garden…<br />

They all offer comfort lovers a warm and spacious alcove which may hide <strong>the</strong> magic of a secret you will long to<br />

Aix-en-Provence<br />

Shadows and lights<br />

Poet, patron and artist, René of Anjou transformed Provence into a world where <strong>the</strong> finer things in life were king…<br />

This culture of pleasure and well-being is exactly what you will find if you stay at <strong>the</strong> Grand Hôtel in Aix-en-<br />

Provence, proud to bear <strong>the</strong> name of this illustrious epicure and lover of fine literature and fine foods. Designed to<br />

resemble a romantic boudoir, <strong>the</strong> Grand Hôtel Roi René is a little haven of peace in <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> city of Cézanne<br />

and a stone’s throw away from its historic centre. Those who have stopped off at this jewel of Aix’s past on <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

travels – Sir Winston Churchill stayed here to write part of his memoirs – particularly appreciate <strong>the</strong> elegance and<br />

harmony of <strong>the</strong> décor, <strong>the</strong> comfort and light of <strong>the</strong> rooms, and <strong>the</strong> discretion and sophistication of <strong>the</strong> service. After<br />

a stroll through <strong>the</strong> city of 100 fountains, <strong>the</strong>y will have worked up an appetite to take <strong>the</strong>ir seat at La Table du<br />

Roi, to enjoy a daring cuisine brimming with <strong>the</strong> flavours of provence. A moment of pure pleasure, to be savoured.<br />

Marseille<br />

Marseille genuinely Mediterranean<br />

”O time, suspend your flight, and you, happy hours! Suspend your race.” Alphonse de Lamartine’s words will<br />

no doubt resonate in your mind when you stay at <strong>the</strong> Grand Hôtel Beauvau. Especially as <strong>the</strong> poet, as well as<br />

composer Frédéric Chopin and lady of letters George Sand, stayed in this romantic haven of inspiration and a<br />

base for journeys…<br />

Journeys through time, as this lyrical hotel with its intense, warm atmosphere, has seen some 200 years of <strong>the</strong> history<br />

of <strong>the</strong> Phocaean city… A journey to <strong>the</strong> heart of Provence, where period furniture from <strong>the</strong> time of Louis-Philippe and<br />

Napoleon III are perfectly matched with traditional local fabrics. While <strong>the</strong> Grand Hôtel Beauvau pays a hearty<br />

tribute to <strong>the</strong> region’s riches, to local arts and craftsmanship, it also enjoys a unique setting, with a breathtaking<br />

view from <strong>the</strong> bar over <strong>the</strong> Vieux Port and <strong>the</strong> Mediterranean beyond. The perfect place to get away from it all!<br />

Marseille through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

Marseille contains <strong>the</strong> entire history of <strong>the</strong> Mediterranean.<br />

I came to appreciate it while playing <strong>the</strong> role of Bérénice at <strong>the</strong><br />

wonderful Gymnase <strong>the</strong>atre. Every night after <strong>the</strong> show, we would<br />

go down along <strong>the</strong> Canebière to get toge<strong>the</strong>r at one of <strong>the</strong> many pubs that welcome you all<br />

night long.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> city <strong>the</strong>re’s <strong>the</strong> Vieux Port, its joyful hustle and bustle and its must-see fish<br />

market, where <strong>the</strong> fisherwomen call out to <strong>the</strong> passers-by with <strong>the</strong>ir inimitable and cheeky<br />

banter.<br />

Far from <strong>the</strong> bustling city centre, <strong>the</strong> Panier quarter is a peaceful haven that invites you to stroll<br />

about at your leisure. With its small squares, its colourful allies and winding staircases, it remains<br />

<strong>the</strong> favourite haunt of local artists and artisans, located around Lenche Square. There’s <strong>the</strong><br />

Estaque quarter at <strong>the</strong> city limits to be explored, whose name comes from <strong>the</strong> Provencal ”estaco,”<br />

<strong>the</strong> attachment. Between <strong>the</strong> sea and <strong>the</strong> hills, this small port was <strong>the</strong> source of inspiration for<br />

many artists such as Paul Cézanne or Auguste Renoir, who declared it ”<strong>the</strong> most beautiful in <strong>the</strong><br />

world”, and has provided <strong>the</strong> setting for many films, including Marius et Jeannette.<br />

People come here with friends, to enjoy its ”panisses,” slices of fried mashed chickpeas and<br />

<strong>the</strong> famous, or ”chichi-frégis,” donuts sprinkled with sugar.<br />

Milan<br />

Between history, art, pleasure<br />

and delights<br />

There are a thousand and one reasons to enjoy <strong>the</strong> hospitality of <strong>the</strong> Grand Hotel Villa Torretta. But whe<strong>the</strong>r you<br />

come here for business, for a romantic anniversary or just for a break, you can’t fail to be enchanted here. It has<br />

to be said that this 17 th century former residence, left derelict for 40 years, has managed to recapture all of its<br />

splendour, thanks to <strong>the</strong> painstaking restoration work which demonstrates a remarkable loyalty to its historic roots.<br />

Each of <strong>the</strong> 56 rooms offers a welcoming, refined atmosphere, while <strong>the</strong> 22 suites and junior suites provide guests<br />

with an oasis of elegance, with <strong>the</strong>ir 18 th century furniture, ”trompe l’œil” frescos and Venetian stucco.<br />

The atmosphere is just as enticing in <strong>the</strong> Vico della Torretta restaurant which showcases <strong>the</strong> very best of Milanese<br />

cuisine. With just 50 covers, this intimate culinary haven finds <strong>the</strong> perfect balance between regional dishes and<br />

Mediterranean wines. Serving a feast fit for a king – or anyone who appreciates fine Italian food.<br />

Venice<br />

Between secret gardens<br />

and animated canals<br />

Famed for its gondolas and St Mark’s square… <strong>the</strong> only town like it in <strong>the</strong> world, with its little islands connected<br />

to each o<strong>the</strong>r by 400 bridges… Bewitching with its carnival… Venice, “<strong>the</strong> Floating City“, is a real cultural gem,<br />

lying languid in its lagoon. On <strong>the</strong> threshold of <strong>the</strong> old town, in <strong>the</strong> characteristic district of Santa Croce, <strong>the</strong><br />

Papadopoli hotel is <strong>the</strong> ideal base from which to explore <strong>the</strong> charms of La Serenissima. From <strong>the</strong> outside, <strong>the</strong><br />

simple, traditional exterior seems to take on <strong>the</strong> very spirit of <strong>the</strong> city. But on <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r side of <strong>the</strong> front door hides a<br />

haven of sophistication, well hidden from prying eyes. Sumptuously elegant, <strong>the</strong> décor embodies <strong>the</strong> spirit of 18 th<br />

century Italy, with its warm and pastel colours, Venetian chandeliers and exquisite materials. In <strong>the</strong> rooms, every<br />

detail has been carefully designed to give guests an original and au<strong>the</strong>ntic experience… Overlooking <strong>the</strong> canal or<br />

<strong>the</strong> famous Papadopoli gardens, <strong>the</strong>y all boast a breathtaking view and guarantee a peaceful night’s sleep with<br />

<strong>the</strong> gentle wake-up call of birdsong. A culinary island in <strong>the</strong> middle of <strong>the</strong> winter garden, <strong>the</strong> restaurant showcases<br />

<strong>the</strong> wonderful flavours of Venice. If you need a literary escape, <strong>the</strong> hotel’s library, dedicated to art and travel, has<br />

an area devoted to Corto Maltese, <strong>the</strong> legendary comic book hero created by Hugo Pratt – a regular at <strong>the</strong> hotel.<br />

Florence<br />

Unforgettable Florence<br />

If you are wandering through <strong>the</strong> streets of Florence, it means you are following in <strong>the</strong> footsteps of Donatello,<br />

Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo… It also means discovering <strong>the</strong> Duomo, <strong>the</strong> Medici Chapel and…<br />

<strong>the</strong> Cerretani. Built in <strong>the</strong> 17 th century, this hotel, imbued with 300 years of history, casts its elegant shadow over<br />

<strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> historic quarter of San Lorenzo. In <strong>the</strong> purest Florentine style, it pays tribute to <strong>the</strong> Italian Renaissance,<br />

with its bevelled façade, studded with broad windows, its Florentine mirrors and its stunning Liberty staircase, as<br />

light as air. The alchemy between <strong>the</strong> textures and <strong>the</strong> colours – iron, wood, velvet, red, gold – catches <strong>the</strong> light,<br />

revealing a style which is both incredibly refined and completely au<strong>the</strong>ntic. Just like <strong>the</strong> architecture, <strong>the</strong> hotel’s<br />

cuisine is a delicate pleasure. Il Michelangelo bar is well worth a visit, where subtle and simple Tuscan dishes are<br />

prepared with incredible skill and care. In this romantic setting you can give your taste buds a real treat with one<br />

of <strong>the</strong> local specialities, washed down with a glass of Chianti. And to help you get to grips with <strong>the</strong> real spirit of<br />

Florence, <strong>the</strong> hotel organises private talks given by lecturers (from <strong>the</strong> city’s Art schools) on <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>me of <strong>the</strong> ”arte dei<br />

pellicciai” (<strong>the</strong> art of lea<strong>the</strong>r). A unique cultural adventure right in <strong>the</strong> heart of Florence ”<strong>the</strong> Magnificent”.<br />

Florence through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

Several years in a row I had <strong>the</strong> good fortune to be shooting a film in Florence. What a joy to<br />

slip away from <strong>the</strong> set on <strong>the</strong> sly to visit <strong>the</strong> Uffizi Galleries, <strong>the</strong> Pitti Palace, and especially <strong>the</strong><br />

gelato man near <strong>the</strong> Ponte Vecchio…<br />

In Florence you simply must buy gloves. I buy a pair of red ones every time.<br />

The streets are littered with trattorias where you can devour a Linguini al pesto or a Florentina<br />

for confirmed meat eaters.<br />

On summer days, nothing beats <strong>the</strong> small stalls where you can find coconuts chilled by little<br />

moving fountains.<br />

At night, you simply must go up into <strong>the</strong> hills on a Vespa, your hair flying, in order to enjoy<br />

<strong>the</strong> view of Florence at sunset.<br />

<strong>the</strong> world. Discover its treasures and explore <strong>the</strong> historic centre, a World Heritage site, uncovering <strong>the</strong> secrets of its<br />

out for <strong>the</strong> traveller to wallow in its history. You can almost see <strong>the</strong> horse-drawn carriages cross <strong>the</strong> ancient cloister<br />

and hear <strong>the</strong> sounds of <strong>the</strong> bustling courtyard. A stay at <strong>the</strong> Palazzo Caracciolo, <strong>the</strong> private residence of <strong>the</strong> King<br />

of Naples, Gioacchino Murat, is a must for anyone keen to revel in a sumptuous setting, positively brimming with<br />

character. The formality of <strong>the</strong> past, softened by <strong>the</strong> sophisticated elegance of <strong>the</strong> décor of its 143 rooms, creates<br />

<strong>the</strong> perfect harmony between modernity and tradition, convenience and distinction. The restaurant, La Cucina,<br />

The luxury of being right on <strong>the</strong> spot:<br />

walking Cologne<br />

Founded by <strong>the</strong> Emperor Agrippina in 50 A.D., <strong>the</strong> city of Cologne still bears traces of its ancient civilisation<br />

within its walls, with countless Roman churches and colourful little houses stretching along <strong>the</strong> Rhine. But <strong>the</strong> most<br />

majestic monument in Cologne is still its gothic ca<strong>the</strong>dral, towering over <strong>the</strong> old town from its staggering 157 metres<br />

height. It is alongside this architectural jewel, a Unesco world heritage site, that we invite you to discover ”<strong>the</strong> soul<br />

of Cologne.” Located right in <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> Altstadt*, <strong>the</strong> Hotel Mondial am Dom finds itself at <strong>the</strong> crossroads<br />

between <strong>the</strong> romanticism of <strong>the</strong> old town and <strong>the</strong> modernism of <strong>the</strong> city centre. This very special address boasts<br />

beautifully decorated interiors, cleverly combining art and culture. In <strong>the</strong> reception area a bust of <strong>the</strong> Roman<br />

emperor Trajan blends in with sumptuous wood, comfy armchairs and select marble statues. After an evening out at<br />

a concert by <strong>the</strong> Cologne Philharmonic Orchestra, you can relax in <strong>the</strong> hotel’s Spa, or savour <strong>the</strong> sophisticated and<br />

delicious dishes served in <strong>the</strong> restaurant La Brasserie. For <strong>the</strong> cherry on this spectacular cake, <strong>the</strong> Havana Lounge<br />

smoking-room has a selection of cigars for you to choose from in a decadently hushed atmosphere… *old town<br />

Frankfurt<br />

The Privilege of History<br />

Frankfurt am Main – aka ”Mainhattan”, in reference to <strong>the</strong> river which runs through it and its many skyscrapers which<br />

give it a passing resemblance to New York – is a city of contrasts. The tallest buildings rub shoulders with one of<br />

Germany’s largest urban forests, and businessmen and art-lovers live happily side by side.<br />

The Hotel Savigny is <strong>the</strong> perfect illustration of this city of contrasts. At first glance, you’ll be dazzled by its architecture<br />

which seamlessly combines tradition and modernity, poetry and innovation. Depending on your taste and your<br />

mood, you can choose between <strong>the</strong> old Wilhelminian style building, classed as a historic monument, and <strong>the</strong><br />

more up-to-date main building of <strong>the</strong> hotel. Whichever you decide, you’re guaranteed a comfortable stay and an<br />

excellent level of service.<br />

Sit back, relax and enjoy <strong>the</strong> peace and quiet of Goe<strong>the</strong>’s romantic garden, and <strong>the</strong> culinary delights offered in<br />

Zürich<br />

The Quintessential Swiss Chalet<br />

Economic capital of Switzerland, Zürich is a city of contrasts, where modern architecture and undercurrents of<br />

avant-garde ideas live happily alongside <strong>the</strong> stately landscape of <strong>the</strong> Swiss Alps.<br />

This whimsical character can also be found in <strong>the</strong> Hotel Continental, subtly combining innovation with tradition.<br />

If <strong>the</strong> city is surprising, <strong>the</strong> hotel is astounding… Behind its contemporary façade, hides a haven of peace, offering<br />

a warm welcome with its wooden furniture and deep comfy armchairs. Recently renovated, <strong>the</strong> urban Swiss rooms<br />

reflect this mixture of innovation and tradition, with modern fittings and cosy décor, inspired by Swiss chalets.<br />

You’ll also appreciate <strong>the</strong> Swiss way of life, on <strong>the</strong> lovely patio, nestled between <strong>the</strong> hotel’s different wings.<br />

To enjoy <strong>the</strong> best that Swiss hospitality has to offer, you can have a break at <strong>the</strong> bar&diner of <strong>the</strong> hotel, l’Entupada.<br />

Geneva<br />

A collector’s guardian angel<br />

The Hotel Rotary is in <strong>the</strong> image of its creator: atypical and unconventional. Keen traveller, architect and owner,<br />

René Favre has always collected objects and furniture from his cultural journeys. A great collector of antiques,<br />

he designed a decor both simple and elegant to house his collection and o<strong>the</strong>r treasures. Merging into <strong>the</strong> lively<br />

Rue du Cendrier, <strong>the</strong> Rotary was founded in 1976, in <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> business district.<br />

Upon entering, you’ll love <strong>the</strong> cosmopolitan decor combining warm colours and antiques. A Spanish church<br />

altar here, used as a reception desk. Aubusson tapestries <strong>the</strong>re, decorating <strong>the</strong> ceiling... Just a few steps from<br />

Lake Geneva and <strong>the</strong> Old Town, this real ”museum” is a must for anyone wishing to discover poetic Geneva.<br />

Both an international financial centre and a shopping Mecca, <strong>the</strong> city on <strong>the</strong> lake is also ideal to stroll in and<br />

discover nature...<br />

Geneva through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

For me, Geneva is <strong>the</strong> perfect destination when all I want is some<br />

peace and tranquillity…<br />

From <strong>the</strong> banks of Lake Geneva to <strong>the</strong> vast parks full of flowers, <strong>the</strong> whole city is conducive to<br />

happy daydreaming.<br />

A former military patrol, <strong>the</strong> Promenade de la Treille has now been pacified and is <strong>the</strong> ideal<br />

setting for a delightful romantic stroll. In <strong>the</strong> shade of two rows of centenarian chestnut trees, an<br />

immense wooden bench, more than 120 m long, offers a fantastic vantage point… and it’s <strong>the</strong><br />

perfect refuge for anyone who wants to take a break and enjoy a good book.<br />

After spending <strong>the</strong> morning strolling round <strong>the</strong> Plaine Plainpalais market, a popular haunt for<br />

anyone interested in antiques and bric-a-brac, I tend to head to <strong>the</strong> place du Bourg-de-Four,<br />

right in <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> old town, where I like to catch some rays on <strong>the</strong> terrace of one of its<br />

picturesque cafés.<br />

No trip to Geneva would be complete without a visit to <strong>the</strong> mouth-watering rue de Rives or rue<br />

de la Confédération. I’m never disappointed <strong>the</strong>re, thanks to <strong>the</strong> divine concoctions dreamt up<br />

by <strong>the</strong> master Swiss ”chocolatiers.” Creations that I can devour with my eyes… without holding<br />

back!<br />

Victorian grandeur in <strong>the</strong> heart of London<br />

Ideally located in <strong>the</strong> heart of St James, just a stone’s throw from Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and<br />

Big Ben, <strong>the</strong> prestigious St Ermin’s Hotel boasts a quintessentially British spirit. Behind its red brick façade, <strong>the</strong> hotel<br />

exudes a traditional English style with cream-coloured walls and floral fabrics. The lobby, as with all <strong>the</strong> rooms, offer<br />

a formal elegance, seamlessly marrying <strong>the</strong> au<strong>the</strong>ntic décor with modern facilities. Here, <strong>the</strong> atmosphere is hushed;<br />

<strong>the</strong> service is <strong>the</strong> very soul of discretion. And for good reason. In 1940, <strong>the</strong> great wartime leader and former Prime<br />

Minister, Sir Winston Churchill ga<strong>the</strong>red his team within its walls to plan covert operations during World War II.<br />

There is also <strong>the</strong> story from <strong>the</strong> 50's of a spy who was said to have used <strong>the</strong> networked tunnels of Whitehall to<br />

steal secret documents from <strong>the</strong> Foreign Office. One rumour even suggests that a secret passage still exists under<br />

<strong>the</strong> lobby’s impressive staircase, linking <strong>the</strong> hotel to <strong>the</strong> Houses of Parliament...<br />

London through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

For me, London isn’t a city or a capital, it’s a little country, both in terms of its size and <strong>the</strong><br />

variety of its different areas! You can’t get more diverse than Belgravia, Clerkenwell and<br />

Hampstead... The atmosphere here is unique, <strong>the</strong> contrasts live side by side and opposites<br />

attract. For me it is <strong>the</strong> city where everything is possible. One day I’ll wander round <strong>the</strong> shops<br />

of Bond Street and Mayfair... Ano<strong>the</strong>r, I’ll stroll through St James’ Park or take a walk around<br />

<strong>the</strong> trendy area of Brick Lane... <strong>the</strong>n I’ll find a table at an adorable little Italian café on Bethnal<br />

Green Road. Every moment is unique and different!<br />

My favourite London trio? A visit to <strong>the</strong> Tate, a pub lunch in Marylebone or Notting Hill and<br />

afternoon tea in a typical English tea room. In <strong>the</strong> evening I like to go out to <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>atre… The<br />

best productions in <strong>the</strong> world are put on here, and it’s no coincidence that plays are often<br />

transferred to Broadway. On <strong>the</strong> programme: modern plays, West End musicals, free mini<br />

concerts…<br />

Finally, history lovers like me really should visit <strong>the</strong> Churchill War Rooms. This museum helps<br />

us to understand <strong>the</strong> role played by England during <strong>the</strong> Second World War and find out<br />

about <strong>the</strong> incredible organisation of <strong>the</strong> government during <strong>the</strong> conflict and <strong>the</strong> London Blitz.<br />

The Ne<strong>the</strong>rlands<br />

Amsterdam<br />

Genuine hospitality, intimacy<br />

at <strong>the</strong> heart of Amsterdam<br />

This historic hotel, located along <strong>the</strong> winding canals of central Amsterdam, is one of <strong>the</strong> finest examples of<br />

architecture in <strong>the</strong> city. Originally, <strong>the</strong> facade of <strong>the</strong> Convent Hotel concealed five small residences that alternately<br />

housed two monasteries in <strong>the</strong> Middle Ages and served as <strong>the</strong> headquarters for <strong>the</strong> newspaper ”De Tijd.”<br />

From this illustrious past, a special atmosphere remains and can be found in its infinite detail: <strong>the</strong> stained glass<br />

windows, <strong>the</strong> facade adorned with faience tiles, but also a replica of a 16 th century Pietà, which was discovered<br />

in <strong>the</strong> hotel in 1985. The interior is just as rich in refined ornaments and ”internal displays” of elegance. Spacious<br />

and decidedly contemporary, <strong>the</strong> rooms combine comfort and conviviality with <strong>the</strong>ir warm colours and <strong>the</strong>ir high<br />

quality materials. On <strong>the</strong> walls, paintings of <strong>the</strong> Dutch school and a rich collection of books recall that Amsterdam<br />

is one of <strong>the</strong> main cultural capitals of Europe, with its fifty museums including <strong>the</strong> famous Van Gogh Museum,<br />

which houses some 200 paintings and 550 drawings.<br />

Amsterdam through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

You can’t beat a bicycle for getting around Amsterdam! I love this city because of its<br />

stunning combinations and exciting contrasts. It’s as though you’re in a surrealist painting,<br />

an impressive mix of colours and textures. But it’s impossible to sum up <strong>the</strong> soul of<br />

Amsterdam in just a few words: <strong>the</strong>re is <strong>the</strong> seediness of <strong>the</strong> Red District, but it’s also a<br />

very arty city with lots of museums housing works by some of <strong>the</strong> most famous painters<br />

from <strong>the</strong> Dutch School.<br />

Ravishingly rebellious, for me, this city, intertwined with waterways, is imbued with a<br />

really special atmosphere, thanks to its stunning houses running alongside <strong>the</strong> canals. I<br />

love wandering around, looking at <strong>the</strong> reflection of <strong>the</strong> houses in <strong>the</strong> water, like trompe<br />

l’œil paintings.<br />

In a world of my own, my feet take me on a tour of tearooms, reminding me of Amsterdam’s<br />

colonial past. When <strong>the</strong> evening falls, I’d recommend <strong>the</strong> wine bars too, because <strong>the</strong><br />

Dutch have wonderful palates and <strong>the</strong>y really appreciate French wine. If you’re a bit more<br />

daring, you might like to try some herring, “groene”, from a typical little stall.<br />

Vienna<br />

”Art Nouveau”, art of life<br />

Nestled in <strong>the</strong> heart of Vienna, <strong>the</strong> Hotel am Konzerthaus enjoys an exceptional location, close to all <strong>the</strong> cultural<br />

venues in <strong>the</strong> city. The ultimate haven of hospitality, it is also remarkable for its fascinating design and unique<br />

atmosphere, directly inspired by ”Art Nouveau”. Here, each decorative object and each detail recall this famous<br />

art movement of <strong>the</strong> turn of <strong>the</strong> 20 th century, led by Gustav Klimt, Oskar Kokoschka and Egon Schiele. Thus, works<br />

of art and sketches by Viennese artists line <strong>the</strong> walls of <strong>the</strong> hotel...<br />

In <strong>the</strong> bar, a truly cosy alcove, in a delightfully nostalgic atmosphere, you can admire artefacts from one of <strong>the</strong><br />

coaches of <strong>the</strong> legendary Orient Express and a superb collection of Lalique glassware. This cosy and elegant<br />

atmosphere is also evident in <strong>the</strong> sumptuous rooms decorated with Klimt paintings, with shimmering colours. When<br />

<strong>the</strong> art of living becomes ”Art Nouveau”…<br />

Prague<br />

Following Kafka’s footsteps<br />

”Poets try to transplant o<strong>the</strong>r eyes onto men and <strong>the</strong>reby transform reality”, once said Franz Kafka. The memory of<br />

this illustrious writer still hovers over <strong>the</strong> Century Old Town hotel, where <strong>the</strong> author of The Trial and Metamorphosis<br />

had worked as an insurance clerk between 1908 and 1922. The first hostel to be built in Prague, in 1379,<br />

<strong>the</strong> Century Old Town hotel has kept this literary spirit within its walls and also pays a major tribute to this great<br />

writer.<br />

Through its refined decoration, it also celebrates <strong>the</strong> neo-baroque style and recreates, for <strong>the</strong> comfort for its<br />

guests, <strong>the</strong> warm and intimate atmosphere of <strong>the</strong> beginning of <strong>the</strong> century. Offering <strong>the</strong> same cosy and friendly<br />

atmosphere, <strong>the</strong> Felice brasserie – <strong>the</strong> name of one of Kafka’s muses – will also give you <strong>the</strong> opportunity to enjoy an<br />

avant-garde cuisine accompanied by exceptional wines; unless you’d ra<strong>the</strong>r enjoy a refined liqueur in <strong>the</strong> Chapter<br />

Bar, while leafing through <strong>the</strong> works of <strong>the</strong> greatest Czech writers. A spiritual nourishment that will certainly give<br />

you <strong>the</strong> appetite to explore <strong>the</strong> architectural treasures that make up <strong>the</strong> splendour of Prague, a baroque city ”par<br />

Oriental charms and legends<br />

In <strong>the</strong> 16 th century, Yemen, and more specifically Al Mokha, a favourite with <strong>the</strong> courts of Europe, gave us an early<br />

of o<strong>the</strong>r treasures to show off. Kingdom of <strong>the</strong> Queen of Sheba, Yemen has millennia of history behind it, where<br />

myths and legends are based on <strong>the</strong> landscapes carved out of mountains, flowers and legendary routes. One<br />

such road will take you to <strong>the</strong> town of Taiz, founded in <strong>the</strong> 12 th century by Saladin. It is here, before <strong>the</strong> famous<br />

Al Ashrafiya mosque, that your dreams of <strong>the</strong> distant East will come to life. Perched on top of Mount Domalah, <strong>the</strong><br />

As you cross <strong>the</strong> threshold, you’ll be won over by <strong>the</strong> stunning lobby with its sophisticated décor. Your very own<br />

Historical and romantic hideaway<br />

Tucked away in <strong>the</strong> centre of <strong>the</strong> colonial town of Santo Domingo, <strong>the</strong> Hotel Francés invites you on a picturesque<br />

journey back in time, far away from <strong>the</strong> island’s tourist hot-spots. Here you can still get a sense of times gone by,<br />

when this hotel was still <strong>the</strong> home of <strong>the</strong> Spanish Court’s Royal Treasurer back in <strong>the</strong> 16 th century.<br />

Stepping into <strong>the</strong> lobby, you’ll catch sight of old stones, some of which are coral, relics of its prestigious past.<br />

Relive <strong>the</strong> greatest hours of <strong>the</strong> island’s glorious history, in this building which once housed <strong>the</strong> apartments of <strong>the</strong><br />

governor’s officers. The flower-lined patio, framed with stone and red brick archways houses 19 rooms, with all<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir deliciously colonial charm.<br />

Special mention should be made of <strong>the</strong> le Patio restaurant which serves sophisticated dishes combining Dominican<br />

and international flavours, in an intimate, romantic setting. The ultimate venue for quiet ”tête-à-tête” dining. Outside,<br />

<strong>the</strong> former colonial district, a Unesco World Heritage site, clamours to you, inviting you on a stroll through history…<br />

Stepping back into <strong>the</strong> New World<br />

Located on <strong>the</strong> first paved street of <strong>the</strong> New World, <strong>the</strong> Hostal Nicolas de Ovando is a very special place, where<br />

every stone, every patio and every fountain tells a story of Christopher Columbus’s Caribbean. A Unesco World<br />

heritage site, this majestic building was once <strong>the</strong> residence of Nicolas de Ovando, <strong>the</strong> first governor of <strong>the</strong> Indies,<br />

a contemporary of El Conquistador. The Hostal has retained its original walls from <strong>the</strong> time it was a fortress, as well<br />

as its spirit, brimming with tradition. With 5 centuries of history behind it, this mythical venue invites you to enjoy a<br />

sophisticated break in one of its 104 rooms and suites, decorated in a colonial or contemporary style, overlooking<br />

<strong>the</strong> river, <strong>the</strong> four patios, <strong>the</strong> gardens or <strong>the</strong> famous cobbles of ”Las Damas.” In <strong>the</strong> middle of <strong>the</strong> Spanish patio,<br />

<strong>the</strong> restaurant, La Résidence, will certainly know how to wake up your taste buds, with a mixture of creole and<br />

french flavours.<br />

Between <strong>the</strong> Spanish patio and <strong>the</strong> tropical garden, <strong>the</strong> Cibao Bar is one of those places where <strong>the</strong> ”tabaquero”,<br />

<strong>the</strong> cigar maker, offers a selection of <strong>the</strong> best Dominican cigars, offering advice to <strong>the</strong> connoisseur, and tips to <strong>the</strong><br />

novice. Choose from <strong>the</strong> selection of aged Caribbean rums for <strong>the</strong> perfect accompaniment to this very special<br />

moment of relaxation.<br />

A balance of elegance and aes<strong>the</strong>ticism,<br />

Formerly <strong>the</strong> Kingdom of Siam, Thailand is well known around <strong>the</strong> world as <strong>the</strong> “Land of <strong>the</strong> Smiles”. As tradition<br />

demands, hospitality is second nature to <strong>the</strong> Hotel Muse. Combining <strong>the</strong> very finest service with a warm welcome,<br />

this boutique hotel takes us back to <strong>the</strong> golden age of Siam at <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong> 19 th century, thanks to its rich,<br />

au<strong>the</strong>ntic design. Majestic ceilings and staircases, exquisite furniture, relaxing sofas and armchairs… Every detail<br />

here is a living tribute to Rama V, one of <strong>the</strong> best-loved kings of Siam, whose reign has become synonymous<br />

with prosperity. In <strong>the</strong> contemporary décor of <strong>the</strong> rooms, colonial influences are cleverly mingled with Thai style,<br />

breathing even more magic into this elegant kingdom. The intimate atmosphere throughout creates a feeling of<br />

peace and tranquillity, with its filtered lights and chic lines. A little haven of peace on <strong>the</strong> 25 th floor of <strong>the</strong> hotel,<br />

<strong>the</strong> lounge bar, <strong>the</strong> Speakeasy, offers a sophisticated atmosphere with a breathtaking view of central Bangkok…<br />

Some cities are like painters’ palettes: <strong>the</strong> colours, smells and traditions merge toge<strong>the</strong>r to form a canvas. Bangkok<br />

Bangkok through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

For me, Bangkok is <strong>the</strong> epitome of <strong>the</strong> meeting between Asia’s past<br />

and its future…<br />

It’s something to do with <strong>the</strong> way <strong>the</strong> traditional architecture lives side by<br />

side with unusually shaped modern buildings in this fascinating city.<br />

Bangkok is indeed a city of contrasts, but also an incredibly welcoming place, with an amazing<br />

energy. One of my greatest pleasures is to wander round <strong>the</strong> city’s many markets which come<br />

to life as soon as <strong>the</strong> sun rises in <strong>the</strong> morning…<br />

Pat Khlong Talat and Bang Rak are, for me, a real treat for all <strong>the</strong> senses, with all <strong>the</strong> fruit<br />

and flowers and <strong>the</strong>ir mind-blowing array of colours and fragrances… As for Chatuchak, <strong>the</strong><br />

country’s biggest market, it has become <strong>the</strong> place to come for anyone interested in exquisite<br />

fabrics and local craftsmanship.<br />

After all of this hustle and bustle, I like to take some time out in one of <strong>the</strong> city’s many temples.<br />

The Temple of <strong>the</strong> Emerald Buddha, right in <strong>the</strong> heart of <strong>the</strong> Royal Palace, is without a doubt<br />

one of <strong>the</strong> most sumptuous and revered.<br />

Then when <strong>the</strong> evening falls, a trip to <strong>the</strong> business district of Silom is a must… That’s where <strong>the</strong><br />

nightlife is at. Boutiques and shops are <strong>the</strong> main attraction here, and it’s quite an experience<br />

to wander through <strong>the</strong> streets trying a fragrant noodle soup here, a sweet banana <strong>the</strong>re, not<br />

forgetting <strong>the</strong> ”Miang kham,” <strong>the</strong> traditional little spicy mouthfuls wrapped up to order.<br />

<strong>the</strong> wide padded benches on <strong>the</strong> private balconies, <strong>the</strong> perfect setting for peace and contemplation.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> heart of it all is <strong>the</strong> gourmet restaurant, <strong>the</strong> Dining Room, where you can tempt your taste buds with a creative<br />

menu combining Thai and Western flavours, while <strong>the</strong> I sea restaurant is a tribute to Asian dishes that are best<br />

There are still some little corners of paradise on earth, fiercely guarded from prying eyes… Happily nestled alongside<br />

<strong>the</strong> Andaman sea, <strong>the</strong> B-Lay Tong Resort hides a treasure trove of delights behind its slate grey geometrical façade,<br />

to <strong>the</strong> ancient principles of Feng Shui, in <strong>the</strong> four dominant colours: red for fire, blue for water, green for earth and<br />

gold for <strong>the</strong> wind. Each one has its own private balcony overlooking <strong>the</strong> deep blue sea or <strong>the</strong> tropical vegetation<br />

of <strong>the</strong> gardens. Some even have <strong>the</strong>ir own patio or private whirlpool bath… In this little paradise of calm, <strong>the</strong> days<br />

go by following <strong>the</strong> rhythm of your desire: lazing by <strong>the</strong> pool, which looks just like <strong>the</strong> sky thanks to its lighting,<br />

or a trip in <strong>the</strong> “perle du Sud”, to discover <strong>the</strong> delights of <strong>the</strong> national park of Khao Phra Thaeo or <strong>the</strong> Koh Siray<br />

<strong>the</strong>m. An ancient city surrounded by parks and lakes, it stands out thanks to its oriental traditions, its bustling streets<br />

and its colonial past. A jewel of this historic heritage, <strong>the</strong> Hôtel de l’Opéra offers travellers a sophisticated break<br />

near <strong>the</strong> iconic Hanoi Opera House. A real sanctuary of peace and quiet tucked away from <strong>the</strong> busy old city, this<br />

hotel, with its colonial architecture, can guarantee you a warm welcome. As soon as you arrive, you can’t fail to be<br />

won over by <strong>the</strong> magic of <strong>the</strong> setting and <strong>the</strong> <strong>the</strong>atrical interior, filled with rich shades, silk drapes and flamboyantly<br />

coloured furniture. The same decadence runs through <strong>the</strong> 107 rooms and suites that combine 21 st century comfort<br />

with French sophistication and grand decor. Just as impressive are <strong>the</strong> relaxing Spa treatments and <strong>the</strong> bar, La Fée<br />

Verte, where you can try a legendary absin<strong>the</strong>. In <strong>the</strong> evening take a trip to Satine, a restaurant serving daringly<br />

delicious dishes inspired by <strong>the</strong> Mediterranean.<br />

live and share a smile.<br />

Hanoi through Kristin Scott Thomas’ eyes<br />

Strolling along <strong>the</strong> streets of Hanoi, why not try a bowl of Pho from<br />

a tiny little pavement café, taking in 3,000 years of history in <strong>the</strong><br />

perpetually traditional heart of Asia. I love <strong>the</strong> rhythm of <strong>the</strong> place,<br />

frenetic and slow at <strong>the</strong> same time, where people take <strong>the</strong> time to<br />

On <strong>the</strong> shores of Hoan Kiem Lake, said to be inhabited by a legendary turtle, my imagination<br />

is captivated by this surprising city. An intangible city, both full of energy, with its puppet shows,<br />

and also strangely calm, in <strong>the</strong> shadow of its Flamboyants.<br />

I love losing myself in <strong>the</strong> district of 36 Streets, all named after different trades. I let myself be<br />

tempted by <strong>the</strong> silks, with <strong>the</strong>ir range of unexpected colours, <strong>the</strong> mysterious religious artefacts,<br />

<strong>the</strong> complex painted wooden toys, exotic in <strong>the</strong>ir simplicity. Coming out of a shop where I’ve<br />

picked up some embroidered tablecloths that remind me of my childhood in England, I find<br />

myself opposite a “gothic” church, blackened by <strong>the</strong> years, a strangely European sight.<br />

And <strong>the</strong> taxi back to <strong>the</strong> hotel, I let myself be engulfed by <strong>the</strong> energy of <strong>the</strong> city, <strong>the</strong> raucous<br />

noise of car horns, mopeds and scooters. In <strong>the</strong> evening, I wander through <strong>the</strong> area around<br />

<strong>the</strong> Opera House, whose architecture was inspired by <strong>the</strong> Palais Garnier in Paris. Nei<strong>the</strong>r<br />

totally yin nor totally yang, Hanoi reflects <strong>the</strong> wonderful alchemy of Asian traditions and<br />

Western influences.<br />

Yogyakarta<br />

Encapsulating Java’s vast heritage<br />

of beauty<br />

Renowned for its beautiful countryside and numerous volcanoes, Java was a Dutch colony for many years.<br />

This presence was a major influence on <strong>the</strong> island’s culture, and gave birth to Indische architecture, a combination<br />

of European style and Indonesian tastes… The Phoenix Hotel in Yogyakarta is without a doubt one of <strong>the</strong> jewels of<br />

this prestigious heritage. Built in 1918 by a wealthy Chinese merchant named Kwik Djoen Eng, this unique building<br />

has managed to retain many aspects of its past, but also offers guests all <strong>the</strong> modern comforts you would expect.<br />

Its 144 rooms and suites combine European decor with Asian touches. This clever mix of genres continues into <strong>the</strong><br />

Paprika restaurant, where Asian flavours and Indonesian delicacies are served up alongside Western dishes…<br />

to delight your taste buds whatever you prefer.<br />

When it comes to down time, you can choose between slipping into a comfy armchair in <strong>the</strong> colonial bar<br />

– The 1918’s – with a good book or a relaxing interlude at <strong>the</strong> hotel’s Spa. The incarnation of a multicultural history,<br />

<strong>the</strong> Phoenix Hotel in Yogyakarta can guarantee a delightful experience, constantly reinventing itself and inspiring<br />

new memories… as befitting its mythical name.<br />

There are a thousand ways to travel<br />

and just as many ways to say... thank you<br />

The new visual identity unveiled in this guide is a reflection of <strong>MGallery</strong>’s personality and its aspirations for<br />

<strong>the</strong> future. And if our collection continues to grow, it is above all thanks to all those travellers in search of new<br />

experiences, who do us <strong>the</strong> honour of staying at one of our hotels. We would also like to warmly thank all those<br />

who, every day, work towards making <strong>MGallery</strong> an ever more prestigious and astonishing brand.
