A Streetcar named Desire

Just when you thought this blog was getting all Design Hotels focused……BAM!

The Smiths (that’s Mr & Mrs Smith to you) are feeling pretty generous.  Over at their site, they are running a little competition to win an idyllic getaway weekend in West Sussex, with a two-night stay at York House Rooms, a luxury cottage with all the trimmings of a modern city pad.

Coco Ribbon Spoilt Silly giftbox

Added to that, the lucky winner will get a Spoilt Silly giftbox worth £110 from Coco Ribbon, packed with designer treats including a bottle of the signature Coco Ribbon fragrance, luxurious bath oil, a silk jewellery roll, a bespoke-print silk eyemask and a sultry silk knicker set.

DesignHotels.com re-launching soon?

No sooner had I finished my post on their new Book (see my previous post), but a little bird tells me that DesignHotels.com will be re-launching in a matter of days.

A new site will go live on Monday presenting the brand in a new way, in line with their rebranding as the home of the originals.

More details to follow soon, but for now enjoy the last few days of their current site: www.DesignHotels.com.

Design Hotels Book 2009

It has been a while since I posted, so sorry if you missed me.  I have been working on a number of things, some of which will make their way on to this blog over the course of the next few months.

One thing I have not stopped doing though is hunting around for cool stuff….and what could be cooler than the latest Design Hotels Book.  Shipping from 16 March it is available from the Design Hotels website for the princely sum of €44.
