Classic with a fresh modern twist, this creative space balances cosmopolitan edge with quintessential Milanese glamour to create a unique stay for its visitors. A former industrial building, the hotel brags bright colours nestled amongst the rough concrete walls, rabbit style chairs spread out across the stone floors and layered sculptures across the landing, mimicking the feel of a stroll through a post-modern museum.

Taking travelling to new heights, stay in a location that is a little bit out of your comfort zone.

If not, book this wacky lil guest house for a taste of the high life.

Bambu Indah Udang House, Bali, Indonesia

Walking on water is the norm at this luxury resort in Bali, Indonesia. With tempered glass-panelled floors stretching across the room, watch the fish and shrimp swim below while they are blissfully unaware of your presence. And when you don't have your eyes glued to the floors, look out across the terrace amongst the trees and shrubbery of this tropical island paradise.

Au Vieux Panier, Marseille, France

This hotel allows you to live amongst the art, with five rooms that are annually reconceptualised by commissioned artists and designers. Each with a different interpretation of the space, these rooms are more than just a place to dump your clothes - they are works of art. Known for the graffitied Panic Room in 2012, some of the rooms in this chic hotel are out of this world. Check out SKÖ, the woodwork masterpiece completed by the Avexciters, or Wind, designed by PIXTIL STUDIO made with thousands of singular paint strokes.

Indulge in some vinotherapy whilst immersing yourself in this avant-garde vision on luxury living.
