THE WORLD’S COOLEST HOTEL ROOMS
The World’s Coolest Hotel Rooms (the Cool Hunter)
Written by one of the world’s leading trend spotters and proprietor of the widely-read Bill Tikos, The World’s Coolest Hotel Rooms opens the doors to more than fifty of the hippest, sexiest, newest, and most unusual rooms across the seven continents. Featuring the work of today’s top architects and interior designers, this book offers diverse accommodations with one thing in common: impeccable taste with edge.
So wherever wanderlust may take you—from an idyllic getaway in Scotland’s remote Jura Island to the bright lights and nonstop action of Berlin—there is an amazing place to stay, and Tikos has roamed the globe to find it and the best room in the house.
…Boring is not an option. There are rooms that fulfill rock star fantasies—complete with soundstage—and others that elevate the meaning of luxury, with sumptuously dressed daybeds in lush, secluded gardens with private pools. Each entry provides the inspiration behind the hotel’s architecture, details the room’s special amenities, design features, and rate. Local points of interest are described as well.
