It's coming to the end of another uncertain year, and whilst travel has been rocky, it hasn’t stopped brands and developers from designing for the future and so the new year in sight comes with a whole host of highly anticipated hotel openings across the globe. From the world’s first whole life net zero hotel in London, a new urban sanctuary in Manhattan designed by architect and designer Jean Michel Gathy, the expansion of multi award-winning Hotel Brooklyn to Leicester and a new 5-Star hotel in Le Marais, Paris, it is certain that there’s lots to look forward to.
xenodocheio Milos in Athens – opening January 2022
Come 15 January 2022, xenodocheio Milos will open its doors to become the home of estiatorio Milos and of all its distinguished guests from around the world. A place where “philoxenia”, the sacred art of making a stranger feel like home, derives from unparalleled taste and world class hospitality. xenodocheio Milos is in downtown Athens opposite Old Parliament, an area bursting with history and celebrates the best of Greek heritage, art and cuisine. Elegant and refined, this authentic culinary hotel experience is the very first luxury boutique hotel of the world-renowned Greek restaurant estiatorio Milos, carrying the inspiring story of Milos to its next chapter.
Hotel Brooklyn, Leicester – opening May/June 2022
Following the success of Hotel Brooklyn Manchester's opening in 2020, and with over 20 awards under their belt, the inclusive, super-friendly Brooklyn brand is expanding to Leicester, with a new opening in May/June 2022. Like the Manchester hotel, Leicester will be inspired by the New York Borough, with an industrial aesthetic, impressive atrium and exposed brickwork. The Lair will be the hub of the hotel, with an open plan bar, restaurant and vibrant living space. True to the Brooklyn brand, superb design and access for all and careful thought to anyone needing special care will be at the centre of the hotel's philosophy. Like with Manchester this hotel really does push the boundaries for what a hotel should be offering as 'the norm' across all its facilities and will be a key hotel opening for next year – watch this space!
Jean-Michel Gathy's Aman New York – opening first half of 2022
Aman New York, a hero project for architect and designer Jean-Michel Gathy, will open in the first half of 2022 – a highly anticipated opening in the iconic Crown Building.
