Hotel Missoni Kuwait

I am totally obsessed with Missoni at the moment and I guess the grand opening of the new Missoni Hotel in Kuwait doesnt help.... It is beautiful!!! Of course it is bright and fun with all the Missoni fabrics used. The colours that they used have been predominantly inspired from the land and sea of Kuwait. The hotel offers an exclusive experience of style, glamour, luxury and hospitality. Creative Director, Rosita Missoni, combines her signature use of vibrant patterns and of bold colours, with strong accents of turquoise, green and gold seen throughout the hotel.

The hotel has a total of 169 rooms out of which 63 are suites. All rooms feature Bang & Olufsen TVs, generous bath products, laptop connections and high-speed WiFi, and all suites are equipped with magic mirrors that allow guests to switch their bathroom mirror into a TV. The pool is overlooking the Persian Gulf, the elite hotel offers Arabic and Mediterranean dining in the Cucina Luna restaurant and pastries and chocolates in the Choco Cafe.

The Six Senses Spa in the hotel will be opening at then end of the year. 

Have a look at it and tell us what you think of this bright and fun new hotel!

We love it!!

J-B's Hip Hotels

It is really hard to find great hotels that tick all the boxes. Places to stay that have character and flair, that are central to the action and affordable and that will have you booking your next stay before you’ve left. Once you find that little gem it’s important to pass it on and share the love. So of course we would love to share with you all the most fab and hip hotel’s we’ve stumbled upon on our travels.

Moana Surf-rider - Waikiki

One of the best qualities about the Moana Surfrider is that it’s rich and long standing history has been retained through all of the renovations it has undergone. As one of the oldest structures along the famous strip of sand that is Waikiki, it’s original facade has retained its elegance and character but has taken on a sophisticated and contemporary look with the pale grey and white colour palette.
The whole resort has a hawaii meets bahamas feel to it from the carpet featuring a palm tree motif, to the wicker lanterns that run along the hallway’s, it all works. While the rooms aren’t overly huge, the fit out is elegant and uncluttered. The plantation shutters add that extra touch. One of my favourite spots was the huge veranda/terrace that ran around the back of the hotel, gorgeous old wicker chairs lined up every afternoon, while high tea was served - a wonderful place to escape the afternoon heat and catch the cool sea breeze.
