100 HOTELS + RESORTS: DESTINATIONS THAT LIFT THE SPIRIT

This second volume in the series Collection of Architecture that started very successfully with 1000 x European Architecture presents the diversity of European hotels today. The wide range of hotel types is shown with opulent illustrations, plans and drawings as well as a short description. 1000x European Hotels reveals what unites and divides European hotels by exploring its variety with regard to style, architecture and design: famous Grand Hotels, stylish business accommodations, innovative youth hostels, superb country houses, romantic bed & breakfasts, extravagant luxury hotels as well as quite unusual places such as a timbered tree house, a former jail, a cave or a repurposed drain pipe.

This sumptuously illustrated, beautifully produced book offers the best in style, service, and design--on the most luxurious hotels in the world! Whether traditional or modern, luxury need not be defined in terms of richly decorated formality. The European hotels featured in these pages, both the well established names and the hidden gems, have been chosen for their distinctive architecture and the tastefulness and simplicity of their interior design.
