There really are some absolutely glorious hotels in the world. From Passalacqua in Italy – this year crowned the best hotel in the world – to all these stunning locations selected by Condé Nast Traveller, and even this Icehotel, we’re not short for choice when it comes to unique, luxurious stays.
2023 has seen loads of new exciting openings in the luxury hotel space, and Luxury Travel Intelligence, a members-only travel publication, is here to celebrate the best of the best. Their ranking of the world’s best new luxury hotels makes for some pretty aspirational reading.
The UK leads the way with three hotel entries, followed by Italy, which has two. Some standouts include the Peninsula in Istanbul, which is perched on the glistening waterfront of the Bosphorus River, or the Fifth Avenue Hotel in New York, nestled right in the heart of Manhattan, near the Flatiron building.
But the entire list is pretty dazzling, so here are the best new luxury hotels according to Luxury Travel Intelligence.
