Singapore

Shangri-La Singapore

This is where I would leave time for the children to play and for the hotel itself. A trip built around quick MRT journeys and frequent stops back at the room suits a more immediate city base.

Chatham, Cape Cod

Chatham Bars Inn

I would come in summer, when the beach and boating can fill a day without much planning. Choose the building carefully if you want dinner close to your room: the historic inn and cottages spread across the grounds.

Ojai, California

Ojai Valley Inn

I would come with few excursions planned and time for the patio, treatments and walks around the grounds. Daily sightseeing in Los Angeles calls for a different base; from this valley you would have to organise the journeys.

London

The Landmark London

A Marylebone base to come back to, with tea beneath the palms and room to settle in upstairs.

Hyde Park Corner, London

The Peninsula London

I’d start with a Grand Premier Park room and its view of Wellington Arch, then make time for the long indoor pool. The Deluxe looks into the courtyard. This is a London stay with room for the hotel itself: a morning swim, a walk and dinner upstairs.

London

Corinthia London

I’d leave an evening unplanned here: a swim, a table downstairs, then upstairs. I’d choose it for a London trip where coming back is part of the pleasure; for days spent entirely out, I’d book somewhere simpler.

London

Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London

I’d begin London with the park and decide the rest later. The Hyde Park outlook is worth paying for if you mean to enjoy it upstairs too; for a room used only for sleep, start with the courtyard.

The Rocks, Sydney

Park Hyatt Sydney

I’d open the curtains early and leave the phone alone for a while. Opera View earns its extra cost when you want to enjoy Sydney without leaving the room. For a stay spent out from morning until bedtime, I’d use that difference elsewhere.

London

The Lanesborough

Dressing for dinner would be part of the pleasure here; I’d keep the morning free for the park. If you prefer a spare, understated bedroom, the fabrics and gilding ask for a different taste.

Koh Samui

Four Seasons Resort Koh Samui

I’d come to spend a few days in the villa, with time down at the beach and dinner already settled. A trip built around walking out to bars and restaurants each evening needs a base closer to the island’s nightlife.

Simondium, Cape Winelands

Babylonstoren

At Babylonstoren I’d leave room in the diary: harvesting with the gardeners and baking with the bakers can shape a day. Come to sleep on the farm; for daily sightseeing in Cape Town, I would stay in the city.

Roppongi, Tokyo

Grand Hyatt Tokyo

Keep this base when you want choices left at the end of the day: dinner, a bar or another walk around Roppongi. I’d add Club only with time to return; paying for it while crossing the lobby once a day would miss the point. For a small garden-and-tatami inn, I’d choose elsewhere.

Higashiyama, Kyoto

Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto

I wouldn’t fill every day with temples. Keep an afternoon for tea, the pond and a swim, then go out again without trying to finish the whole city. If you already know you will return only late at night, I’d choose a base closer to those evenings.

Udai Sagar, Udaipur

Raffles Udaipur

I’d come with room in the diary: a book at Writers Bar, an unhurried lunch and an evening spent at the hotel. The island earns its place in the trip when you want time here. For several daily outings around the old city, I would sleep closer to them.

New Delhi, India

The Oberoi, New Delhi

I’d leave some of the diary empty here. Go out, come back, choose dinner without starting another restaurant search across the city: that is how I’d use part of the stay. If a hotel is simply somewhere to sleep, I’d compare that premium with what an extra night in India could give you.
