Lisbon’s Baixa has gained a new international hotel address with the opening of Andaz Lisbon, the first Andaz property in Portugal. Announced by Hyatt in March 2026, the hotel brings 170 rooms and suites to one of the capital’s most historically charged quarters, near Praça do Comércio and the Tagus...
Above Nice and the Baie des Anges Nice is a city of shifting perspectives. At street level, the Promenade des Anglais belongs to walkers, cyclists and the steady movement of the seafront. A few streets inland, the Carré d’Or has another tempo: cafés, boutiques, late lunches and the elegant façades...
Bordighera between gardens and sea Travel has a way of filling every available minute. There is the early departure, the airport, the luggage, the road beyond the terminal; even a beautiful coastline can become another stretch of geography to be negotiated. Then comes Bordighera. The French border is behind...
Among Krabi’s limestone cliffs At the southern end of Thailand’s Railay peninsula, the limestone does not merely frame the view. It dictates the geography. Vertical walls rise above palms, forested paths end at tidal beaches, and the Andaman Sea enters the landscape in brilliant fragments...
Saint-Jean-de-Luz on its own terms Saint-Jean-de-Luz has never needed to invent a personality for visitors.

Zagreb’s grand railway-era hotel The Esplanade Zagreb Hotel is best approached with an understanding of the journey that brought it into being. It stands near the Croatian capital’s main railway station, on Mihanovićeva Street, at the edge of the green sequence of squares that gives central...
An estate between river and forest Brittany is often imagined from its outer edge: a granite headland, a harbour, the Atlantic breaking against a seawall. Yet one of the region’s most compelling landscapes lies where the sea moves inland. At Kervignac, near Lorient, the Blavet widens into a tidal estuary,...
Bordighera, beyond the Riviera’s bustle On the western edge of Liguria, the Riviera begins to change its accent. France is close, the hills press towards the water, and a succession of coastal towns carries the memory of a time when a winter beside the Mediterranean was considered a restorative...
Julien Allano’s table in Bonnieux The road into Bonnieux rises through one of the Luberon’s most recognisable landscapes: cultivated slopes, pale stone, and villages that appear to have grown out of the hills themselves. Yet the most compelling reason to stop is not always a panoramic view. At 2 Rue Lucien...
