The Design Hotels™ BOOK
In contrast to the previous editions of the Yearbook, this year’s Design Hotels™ BOOK is bigger and bolder than ever before. Totally redesigned, the book comprises stories and striking images that reveal the individual concepts behind each of the 170 portrayed member hotels. Available as a hardcover coffee-table book in either black or white, the 488-page publication groups member hotels by different experiences - signature, rare and offbeat, to help guests find the atmosphere that suits, or inspires them best.

The Design Hotels™ BOOK emphasises the faces behind the brand: the Originals. The chosen 10 individuals are shown as they really are, authentic, creative and as real as the properties they’ve brought to life. With interviews, engaging texts and striking images the book is all about the Design Hotels™ experiences!
