Top Ten Luxury

Haute Couture Hotels

From Armani to Versace designers don't seem to be able to resist putting their label on your luxury hotel as well as on you. Here are the top 10 best designer hotels. Now the question remains, what do you wear in a bedroom that threatens to be better dressed than you?

Prue Rushton, 30/5/10

Armani Hotel, Dubai

'Stay with Armani' extols the website as The Man Himself stares out at you from a slick black and white image.

Maison Moschino, Milan

With its wicked mix of whimsy and wit, Maison Moschino transports guests into a fairytale fantasy where beds are dressed as ballgowns, gigantic Alice in Wonderland teacups become tables and even a Little Red Riding Hood wolf is tucked up in bed.

Gallery Hotel Art, Florence

Florence's first contemporary boutique hotel.

Hotel Missoni, Edinburgh

Forget tartan, bold bright colours in signature Missoni zig-zags and stripes dominate this Scottish luxury hotel.

Schlosshotel, Berlin

Chanel ubermeister, Karl Lagerfeld slips into the Germanic grandeur of his homeland to deliver the Schlosshotel suites.

The Pineapple House Hotel, Montego Bay

Ralph Lauren has stuck to polo style white, with just a few colour hits of pink and blue. You may recognise some of the stripey soft furnishings from his home collection.

Bulgari Hotel, Milan

In truth, do not arrive at this luxury hotel expecting to be dazzled by bling. The design of this hotel more resembles a cream and dark-edged jewellery box from Chanel.

Hotel Du Petit Moulin, Paris

Christian Lacroix likes to play with richness and a riot of colour. Thankfully, he found an old boulangerie in the Marais to bring his bohemian bejewelled luxury to hotels.
