What are boutique hotels?
Boutique hotels are typically smaller hotels that offer a more personalized and unique experience than you might find in a larger chain hotel. They often feature stylish decor, upscale amenities, and a focus on customer service. Many boutique hotels are independently owned, which means they have a greater degree of freedom to create their own unique brand and atmosphere.
Boutique hotels can be found in a variety of settings, from urban locations to remote countryside locations. Some boutique hotels are designed to cater to specific interests, such as foodies or wellness enthusiasts, while others offer a more general luxury experience.
Design Hotels is a hotel brand, offering boutique hotels worldwide. From winery stays in Portugal, to spa breaks in the Fiji Mountains.
