By The World’s 50 Best

Capella Bangkok: Let’s face it, Bangkok is one of the most exciting cities in the world with one of the best food scenes to be found but it can also be a lot – frenetic, noisy, with a traffic situation to try the patience of a saint. This is where Capella Bangkok steps in. Located on the Chao Phraya River in the Charoenkrung district, the Capella is a masterclass in serenity and calm, from the neutral-toned, clean-lined, Japan-esque design to the brilliant and seemingly semi-psychic service that anticipates your every waking need.

Passalacqua: Set in an 18th-century villa whose former premises housed Pope Innocent XI, this Milanese-designed gem has played host to an aristocratic roll call of occupants, from Count Andrea Lucini-Passalacqua and composer Vincenzo Bellini to the current owners, the De Santis family. Set within spectacular terraced gardens and with just 24 rooms, the boutique hotel showcases the finest Italian craftsmanship in a riot of ornate Baroque elegance. All this comes together in a sublime retreat – almost like a private home – that makes the most of this truly magical lakefront location: just what you’d expect of the winner of The World’s Best Hotel in 2023.

Rosewood Hong Kong: When Rosewood Hong Kong opened in 2019, its 65-storey tower became an unmistakable feature of the city’s skyline. It’s the Rosewood Hotel Group’s seventh location to open in Asia, delivering its signature luxe hospitality style against the stunning backdrop of Victoria Harbour.

The elegant interior of the hotel is the masterful work of Taiwanese-born designer Tony Chi, whose penchant for modern style and understated opulence is manifest throughout. Contemporary pieces accent its lobby and numerous hallways, including works by Damien Hirst and Henry Moore. Octagonal designs are also woven into the core of its design philosophy, drawn from the auspicious significance of the number eight in Chinese tradition.

Cheval Blanc: From its home in the landmark La Samaritaine building alongside the city’s famed Pont Neuf, Cheval Blanc – the first urban Maison from luxury group LVMH Hospitality – boasts colourful interiors by Peter Marino, a Dior Spa, the world-renowned Plénitude restaurant by chef Arnaud Donckele and the longest indoor swimming pool in Paris.

The Upper House: It’s a case of onward and upward at this 117-room bolthole, which sits loftily above Admiralty’s Pacific Place. The Upper House is the first hotel project from hotshot Asian designer André Fu. Its interior is a visual story of creativity and architectural glory. Setting the tone is the brutalist facade, courtesy of British designer Thomas Heatherwick, followed by the red-toned wooden lift inspired by Japan’s torii gates. Fu’s design aesthetic is grounded in the concept of an ‘upward journey’ ensuring a seamless flow throughout the space as it travels between the floors.

Raffles Singapore: To stay at Raffles Hotel Singapore is to immerse oneself into the golden age of travel. Whether being welcomed by the hotel’s liveried Sikh doormen, strolling along the polished teak verandas overlooking tropical gardens, whiling the day away in one of the 115 atmospheric suites or exploring the plentiful dining and drinking options, a stay is sure to inspire lifelong memories of luxury and tradition.

Aman Tokyo: It may sit in the heart of the sprawling megalopolis of Tokyo, but its sleek, serene and unwaveringly luxe atmosphere belies its location. The hotel became Aman's first urban outpost when it opened in 2014, smoothly spanning the top six floors of a shiny 38-storey skyscraper in the bustling Otemachi financial district. The transition from city to escapism is instantaneous upon arrival at the airy 33rd floor lobby, with its cathedral-high ceiling of crafted white washi paper; abstract seasonal floral and rock displays on reflective waters and iconic city views.

Soneva Fushi: The resort’s mantra of ‘no news, no shoes’ does much to summarise its philosophy. Once guests are ferried from seaplane to shore in a speedboat, footwear is removed and shipped to villas, only to be reapplied on departure from the island – just as it should be at the two-time winner of the Lost Explorer Best Beach Hotel Award in both 2023 and 2024. Every element of Soneva Fushi is focused on pure relaxation and detachment to create an environment that feels worlds apart from day-to-day life.

Atlantis The Royal: There’s nothing understated about Atlantis The Royal. Hyped up well before it opened, this hotel is big, bold and in your face. Home to 795 rooms and suites, 17 restaurants and bars, 17 boutiques, a sprawling 32,300 square foot wellness space, and no fewer than 90 swimming pools – including Cloud 22 perched high on top of the sky bridge – this is where to stay if you want an all-out bling Dubai experience.

Nihi Sumba: Nihi Sumba sits on 567 acres of largely untouched jungle on the remote western coast of Sumba Island in eastern Indonesia, close to the Komodo National Park and an hour’s flight from Bali. The 27-villa resort, the design inspired by traditional thatched Sumbanese structures with their signature peaked roofs, is located on the steep hills above a private beach, home to one of the world’s most renowned surfing breaks, Occy’s Left.

The second edition was revealed at a live award ceremony on 17 September 2024 at a highly anticipated awards ceremony in London's Guildhall. Assembling the teams behind the best hotel experiences across the globe, the night was a highly prestigious celebration of the best in the industry, culminating in a countdown that revealed the No.1, or The World’s Best Hotel. In addition to the main ranking reveal, a series of special accolades were also awarded to individuals and hotels.
