Located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just off the corner of Broadway and 50th street, citizenM offers fresh style and relaxation at a budget price in the heart of the Big Apple, and was featured on the Condé Nast Traveler Hot List 2013. The hotel boasts that it "sold the hotel clichés and used the money to make your stay cheaper": what that means in practice is bijou rooms without old-fashioned trouser presses, and instead equipped with wall-to-wall windows, flatscreen TVs with complimentary premium channels (such as HBO for the latest must-watch series), and rainfall showers- and a panoramic rooftop drinking den known as cloudbar. No wonder the hotel has been described as "almost perfect" on TripAdvisor. The Madison Avenue address of The Mark, "New York's most boldly lavish hotel", should tell you much of what you need to know about this 5 star luxury boutique establishment. Larger suites contain not just their own kitchen and multiple bedrooms, but dining rooms too, and views of Madison Avenue, Central Park, East 77th Street, and/or the arresting New York City skyline. Even the standard Queen rooms come complete with white and black marble basins and deep soak bathtubs, while The Mark Restaurant serves up gourmet snacks, brunches, full meals and treats from 7am to 1am daily.

The Palomar in D.C stands out in a sea of chic design hotel in the American capital for its free bicycle hire, daily hosted wine receptions, fitness centre, and outdoor pool.

In fact, yoga mats come as standard in all rooms, as do Etro pampering products, flat screen TVs, and a welcoming, pet friendly attitude. Great inventor Alexander Graham Bell once lived in Georgetown, and it is for this famous former resident that
The Graham Georgetown is named. Georgetown is actually a separate entity from Washington D.C., and this historic port town actually predates its more famous neighbour by quite a few years. Thanks to urban expansion, the hotel is now just minutes from downtown D.C., and the rooms are simply stunning. Valuing substance just as much as style, pops of colour add interest and excitement, while the overall aesthetic is clean, modern Americana. With a roof deck bar -perfect for a cocktail as the sun sets over D.C.- and knowledgeable and attentive staff, guests also rave about the world-class cupcakes to be had at nearby establishment Baked and Wired. Restaurants, bars, galleries and all the delights of downtown D.C. are within walking distance.

Especially popular is the poolside bungalow, which has its own private terrace, wet bar, and Roman inspired marble soaking tub. No detail is overlooked in any of the accommodation, with luxurious white-on-white interior decor, moss coloured Connemara marble, and rainfall showers. Spectacular Atlantic Ocean views are the finishing touch for many of the rooms and suites, while the glittering Miami skyline will wonder and inspire at the other side of the hotel. With 7000 square feet of outdoor space, the Delano offers a sunny modern tropical paradise with access to both beach and pool- with the requisite Miami palm trees.
Rated #1 on TripAdvisor in Miami, The Metropolitan by COMO is now available in our collection. With well-appointed interiors (courtesy of Italian designer Paola Navone) and an enviable Miami Beach location, The Metropolitan combines the best of vintage charm with urban modernity - overlooking a fantastic tropical beach. With an Art Deco inspiration, each of the hotel's 74 rooms is blessed with geometric 1920s architectural shapes and shades. The Ocean View rooms are understandably popular, contrasting the turquoise blue of the Atlantic Ocean with the pure white of the bed linens, while Lake View Suites contain a master bedroom with views of Lake Pancoast and bathrooms overlooking the Miami cityscape. When it comes to dining, the Traymore Bar specialises in gin cocktails, and the Traymore restaurant serves up only the freshest local Floridian food. At the 1 Hotel South Beach, an oceanside aesthetic reigns. Rooms are decked out with organic cotton sheets, salvaged driftwood headboards and hemp-blend mattresses, and each room comes with a quirky detail: a mini terrarium filled with tropical plants. There's no corporate cookie-cutter style here: each room is slightly different, and has been curated with care. The King and Two King rooms come with private balconies, while the standard King room contains an enormous 700 feet of floorspace- perhaps unparalleled here in urban Miami. In the onsite Beachcraft restaurant, spread over two levels, seasonal local seafood and antibiotic-free meat are the stars of the show - and it's all fully complemented by the raw bar, selection of fresh salads and warm flatbreads, all served in an 85 seat dining room furnished in natural materials such as wood, leather, and stone.
Staying at The Vintro Hotel on Miami's South Beach may be a more budget-friendly accommodation option, but nothing is sacrificed in the way of style. Artsy, eclectic, and vibrant, the hotel is slightly reminiscent of an upscale Art Deco motel, with witty vintage inspired artworks in the rooms and communal areas. Guests rave about the rooftop deck, which is the perfect place to while away a warm afternoon underneath a parasol, or to chill out in the balmy tropical evenings. The Vintro supplies bikes, free for guests' use, which are ideal for a sunny ride along the ocean front boardwalk. Situated in a quieter part of South Beach (SoBe to the locals), you're guaranteed a more peaceful night's stay at the Vintro, away from the noise of the bars and clubs, although a handy hotel shuttle will take you wherever you want to go in the SoBe area.
The Lord Balfour is an extremely appealing Art Deco Miami hotel, offering design conscious boutique premises that won't break the bank.

With rotating art displays in the hotel's communal areas, and eye-catching colourful design in the bedrooms -including unique photography installations- a stay at the Lord Balfour is both chic and comfortable. In keeping with Miami's tropic atmosphere, interior areas of the hotel are festooned with palms and tropical plants, while bright fabrics enliven the aesthetics without ever breaking the bounds of good taste.
