The Smith List: hotels for 2013
Let it not be said that we whiled away 2012 resting on (hotel-shaped) laurels: instead, we hopped across Europe by boat, plane and train, seeking out sexy hotels in hot new destinations. The year’s crop of stylish stays includes Croatian palaces, a Mallorcan spa sanctuary, a Provençal hideaway with Alain Ducasse at its helm and an Amalfi Coast monastery (just don’t expect any monks). Want to know the new Santorini? You’ll find it here first…
