alpina gstaad
> Gstaad teems with Swiss chalets, so the arrival of Alpina Gstaad—the first luxury hotel to open in the ski village in 100 years— is especially remarkable. There is a swank cigar lounge and a Six Senses Spa, but there is also a reverence for native Swiss materials, expressed in the use of elements such as Ringgenberg limestone. Nathan Hutchins, a senior associate at HBA London who handled the Alpina Gstaad’s interior design, says the team was inspired not only by the surrounding mountains and meadows, but the time honored Swiss tradition of cra tsmanship. “The boulders that make up the surround of the fireplace in the entrance lobby are from local rivers, and each antique Swiss cabinet in the guestrooms is unique; some are over two-hundred-years old. Almost all the timber beams for the ceilings, loors, and walls are reclaimed Alpine wood, and the magnificent reception desk is from a single local tree trunk,” he says.
The guestrooms, with their lamps refashioned from leather straps that once held cowbells, are Hutchins’ favorite element. “Being in a luxuriously comfortable room tucked under the eaves with snow piled high just above,” he says, “heightens the experience, and is the epitome of imagined Swiss living.”
mgm grand
> Las Vegas isn’t solely for hedonists. At MGM Grand, which just underwent a $160 million overhaul of its main tower, guests can now stay in one of 42 rooms and suites that comprise the Stay Well collection. The rooms are the brainchild of New York wellness minded real estate development company Delos, which worked with the Cleveland Clinic to implement these healthy accommodations. When ensconced in a Stay Well room, guests can look forward to seeing Deepak Chopra greet them on the in-room TV, and sating their thirst with coconut water from the minibar. Wake-up lighting gently eases them out of bed, blue lights help alleviate lingering jet lag, and showers are taken with vitamin c-infused water. Among the rooms tricked out with Stay Well amenities are the dramatic Marquee suites, where color combinations of charcoal, tangerine, oyster, and periwinkle are amplified by a marble loor, billiards table, and 180-degree wraparound views.
