Signature Aviation Spring 2025

TopSuites Typically years (if not decades) in the making, a new hotel will always grab headlines — and the attention of seasoned travelers. After all, while familiarity often ranks above all else (nothing beats arriving back at a favorite hotel as an old friend, where the team knows your name and, most important, your drink order), the allure of newness is hard to resist. And those with a penchant for all things sparkly and new have been royally treated in recent years. The world of luxury hospitality is booming, with both independent hoteliers and big-name corporations quite fairly cashing in

on a resurging demand for travel; new hotels have felt like a dime a dozen in recent years, yet each has still managed to make its own distinct mark, with some pretty special suites to boot. From standalone villas on the Italian coastline to long-awaited city dwellings, the one-of-a-kind suites you’ll fi nd in the following pages have all opened their reservation books in the past year (with a few ‘coming soon’ bonuses thrown in for good measure). Whether you’re looking for absolute privacy or absolute indulgence, here are the suites that have it all.
