    Badrutt’s Palace, St. Moritz, Switzerland

    Like a castle inside a snow globe, Badrutt’s Palace enchants year-round. Perched above a glacial lake, this alpine property offers ski and après-ski glamour in winter, complemented by al fresco dining, golf, and fresh mountain air in summer. Whatever the season, unwind at the world-class spa, where Swiss treatments by Biologique Recherche and Dr. Burgener await.

    The Emory, London, UK

    London’s first all-suite hotel is also one of its most discreet, with guests arriving via an unmarked entrance and enjoying dedicated concierge service. Tucked away in historic Belgravia, The Emory pairs industrial-chic design and Damien Hirst artwork with access to Surrenne, a private members’ spa that houses fitness guru Tracy Anderson’s only UK fitness studio.

The French art de vivre continues in its restaurants, from the charming Bar Vendôme brasserie to the one-Michelin-starred Espadon, a temple of haute cuisine.
