Juliet Kinsman
On-the-go editor
Juliet helped develop Smith from a twinkle in James' and Tamara's eyes in 2002, and defected from dancefloors to do-not-disturb signs to be founding editor of our original guidebooks. Having edited music mags in the Nineties, she contributed to the likes of The Face and Time Out then running a website during the pre-millenium dot com frenzy and shifts on the BBC's homepage nurtured a passion for online publishing, but her editorial heart truly belongs to celebrating stylish hotels with the biggest hearts through her social enterprise, Bouteco. She shares her travel and interior-design thoughts in The Observer, The Sunday Times Style and more; her TV stints have included presenting The Smiths' Hotels for 2 on Discovery. While her Canadian passport has taken her for long spells in New York, Bali, North Africa, Athens and India, she loves her home turf: Notting Hill. Follow Juliet on Instagram.
