Hotel Hotel Canberra: Quirky With A Conscience

March 18, 2015

Anything designed by the architects behind Hobart’s Museum of Old and New Art is bound to be one quirky ride, and aptly named Hotel Hotel Canberra is single-handedly bringing cool to the capital. Spanning three levels of a Japanese-inspired new residential complex known as the Nishi building, the hotel’s 7-star eco rating is impressive, and hints at its sustainable conscience throughout. The lobby is a veritable mash-up of raw and sleek with wallpaper made from natural fibres and walls that ... Read More

The Rise Of The Pop-Up Hotel

February 12, 2015

I’ll admit the whole pop-up thing is pretty done. We’ve seen enough boutiques, eateries and even galleries randomly sprout-up into the urban-stratosphere it’s lucky we’re not allergic. But what about a pop-up hotel … now there’s a concept fairly new to the scene. I’m not talking about the portable ‘glamping’ tent villages haunting music festivals like Splendour, but rather, a new breed of designer lodging offering unique stays in interesting places. Aimed at creative travellers, a pop-up hotel ... Read More

Youthful Creativity: Michelberger Hotel

September 17, 2014

There aren’t many hotels in the world like the Michelberger Hotel; but then there aren’t many cities in the world like Berlin. In fact I can think of none. The anti-thesis of perfection, both destinations are built on the same raw and rebellious energy that drives the souls who visit. The Michelberger Hotel is a kind of modern-day mirror-image of Berlin – which is, funnily enough, anything but modern and far, far from finished. But that’s the whole point, says head interior architect, Till ... Read More

Courtyards and Cool Spaces: Avenue Hotel Copenhagen

September 14, 2014

I’ll let you in on a little secret: I’ve found the best hotel courtyard in all of Scandinavia… and it just happens to live out the back of award-winning luxury Avenue Hotel Copenhagen. It’s a truly gorgeous and inviting space, with comfy pillows strewn all over the carved wooden benches, and in the warmer months it’s filled with the most divine Geraniums you ever did see. There’s nothing better than coming home from a day of exploring Copenhagen, grabbing your laptop (and a rose from the ... Read More

The Limes Hotel Brisbane: Backstreet Boutique

March 20, 2014

It’s not hard for die-hard fromage lovers to fall in love with The Limes Hotel – it’s exterior looks like a giant block of Swiss Cheese! Except, for obvious reasons, it’s not a giant block of Swiss Cheese, but rather it is black and made of bricks and mortar and houses a neat little boutique hotel in the heart of Brisbane’s most popular nightlife precinct, Fortitude Valley.  Even though The Limes Hotel was one of Australia’s first member's of Design Hotels some six years ago, it hasn’t been the ...
