The Connaught |
|
|
In travel, as in life, it’s easy to slip into routine: the same destinations, the same dinner reservations, the same itinerary. This summer, discover the pleasures of doing things differently.
The Connaught is a timeless stay in London’s chic Mayfair Village. This historic hotel brings sophistication to every detail, from its award-winning dining destinations to the refined, plush design of your guest room. This hotel features Europe’s first Aman spa, the three-Michelin-starred Hélène Darroze at The Connaught, and The Connaught Bar, lauded for its Art Deco design and innovative approach to cocktails. Book a suite to experience the hotel’s blend of period charm and modern amenities, complete with original artwork, personal butler service, and even a 1909 Steinway grand piano in the Sutherland Suite.

| Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa |
| This Texas Hill Country resort offers true relaxation, all within a 20-minute drive from Austin.
