Paris is the City Break Everyone Has Been Getting Wrong – Here’s Why

Forget the clichés about sweltering boulevards and shuttered cafés. Summer reveals a more relaxed, stylish and surprisingly authentic side of the French capital.

There are certain travel "truths" that seem to endure regardless of whether anyone has checked if they're still true. Venice is too crowded. Santorini has been Instagrammed to death. And Paris?

Featuring Top 9 Luxury Property Developments Around the World in 2026

28th July 2026

There is a moment that happens before a contract is signed. It’s the moment when a buyer stands in a river-facing penthouse at One Tower Bridge, walks through the gardens of Chelsea Barracks or steps onto a private terrace at The Ritz-Carlton Residences, Miami Beach. In that moment, the decision is no longer about square footage. It is about permanence, elegance, and a refined lifestyle. When it comes to luxury property development in desirable locations across London, New York and Dubai, the ultra-prime market has evolved into something far more strategic. Projects such as The Peninsula Residences in Belgravia, Marina One Residences in Singapore and Emirates Hills in Dubai reveal how luxury real estate projects and exquisite homes now combine hospitality, architectural discipline and long-term liquidity.

Hotel Riomar Ibiza: Balance Restored

17th July 2026

There are two sides to Ibiza. One is defined by beach clubs, late nights and a high-octane energy that rarely subsides. The other is quieter, characterised by mornings that begin with the sound of gentle waves, hidden coves dotted along the coast, and a pace of life shaped by wellbeing rather than nightlife. Riomar Ibiza, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel, firmly leans into the latter, bringing together restorative wellness rituals alongside Mediterranean charm.

Hotel Gotham Newcastle: Glamour has officially arrived in...

8th July 2026

For years, Newcastle’s reputation has been shaped by an industrial past - but that may well be about to change. Consistently overlooked in favour of the cultural and sporting appeal of Manchester, and the dramatic landscapes and UNESCO-protected architecture of Edinburgh, this unpretentious northern city has been quietly upping its luxury game - and all without compromising its laid-back charisma.
