Dear travellers,
The hotel industry - more than ever - is reinventing itself by reconciling aesthetics, design, sustainable environment, well-being and beautiful tables.
New concepts, reinvented palaces, intimate nuggets, great locations, courageous and determined hoteliers after two seasons marked by the Covid, are unveiling for this spring 2023 places more attractive than ever.
From London to Crans-Montana, via Tangier and Melides, the openings of the moment delight us!
Here are five pretty addresses that will be talked about this year.

The rumor ran.
On the Atlantic coast, 130 km south of Lisbon, the designer of shoes with the famous red sole is opening Vermelho, his first hotel.
This address, as surprising as it is refined, is about to open in Melides, a charming Alentejo village.
We visited it before it opened on April 1st.
And as soon as we cross the threshold of the large carriage door, we understand to enter another world...

10 minutes from the bay hemmed with modern business hotels and the old Kasbah district full of charming guest houses, Fairmont (
one of the luxury brands of the French group Accor, editor's note
) has just opened the address that the city lacked: an opulent Arab-Andalusian palace with panoramic views transformed into a 5-star urban resort for curious travellers.
