With so many hotel options to choose from, new hotels are becoming more
aware that creativity and unique offerings are a must in an effort to set them
apart within the market. Here’s a brief look at a few hotels set to open this year
that are doing just that…
The Four Seasons Hotel Lion Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia was
designed in 1817 and used to be a palace. Beginning in May, guests can get the
experience of living like Russian Royalty, something you definitely can’t get
from an average hotel. Rooms on the 5th floor have personal terraces
providing breathtaking views. The hotel
will also feature two signature restaurants and a spa, and with it’s close
proximity to the Hermitage Museum this may be just the place for tourists to
stay!
The Shangri-La hotel in London, opening this May, is
in the 95 story Glass Shard Skyscraper, which stands 1,016 feet high making it
one of the tallest buildings in Europe. The property will have a fitness center
and an indoor infinity pool that looks out onto the city. The individual rooms
will have all of the latest technologies, including a bed that molds to your
body with contouring technology. The property will also feature a café with an
extensive menu with food from around the world – so guests may just be able to
be in Europe while eating as if they are staying in the Caribbean.
Andaz Maui at Wailea Resort and Spa in Hawaii by
Hyatt is set to open this summer and will include a Japanese - Hawaiian fusion restaurant by Iron Chef star
Masaharu Morimoto. Visiting Andez Maui might be worth it just for the food
alone, but the grounds are also spectacular. Outdoor infinity pools cascade
into the ocean, and there will be a 15,000 square foot spa and seven luxury
villas.
