SMALL LUXURY HOTELS

Having just returned from an amazing trip to Greece, I wanted to share some wonderful boutique small luxury hotels. These are actually part (well two out of the three here) of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. This brand is all about independent travelers matching with independent spirited hotels. There are 520 hotels in more than 90 countries that fall into this brand. All of these boutique hotels are anti-chain. They tend to average 50 rooms, and the properties are often secluded, discrete and high luxury standards. No two hotels are the same in this brand. Let’s explore two of the brands (and share another just because it was amazing as well).
