CONDÉ NAST TRAVELER ANNOUNCES THE 2014 HOT LIST:

THE 33 BEST NEW HOTELS IN THE WORLD

THE BEST HOTELS FOR BEACH, DESIGN, FOOD, FAMILY, AND MORE!

MAY HOT LIST ISSUE ON NEWSSTANDS APRIL 29, 2014

 

(New York, NY) – Condé Nast Traveler’s 18th annual Hot List is the definitive guide to the best new hotels and resorts in the world. This year, editors considered 510 hotels in 400 cities and 93 countries.

 

The 2014 Hot List is the most selective ever, with just 33 Best New Hotels in the World. Hotels were considered according to the categories of the modern traveler: Beach, Design, Food, Family, Bargain, Over-the-Top, and Way-Out-There Hotels.

 

The criteria? A sense of place: a hotel that celebrates where it is in the world. A sense of personality: a hotel where it feels like every decoration has been hand-chosen by a person, not by a committee. A sense of intuition: a hotel where it feels like your needs are considered before you even know what they are.

 

The result is a list that takes you around the world—from Kenya to Los Angeles, St. Petersburg to Phuket—and speaks to the passions and habits of the modern traveler.
