Since hotels are our passion, they\u2019re also our barometer for detecting newly flourishing destinations. When the boutique hotels start to arrive, you know something groovy is going down.<\/em><\/h4>\n

The only thing we love as much as a place getting its first Tablet hotel is when it gets its second and third Tablet hotels. The first hotel means something important is happening there: a cultural blossoming, an urban renewal \u2014 or maybe the hotel itself is the main draw, singlehandedly putting a new pin on the map. Subsequent hotels signal that there\u2019s a growing and sustainable appetite for the unique and exceptional, and that cookie-cutter accommodations just won\u2019t cut it anymore.<\/p>\n

We want Tablet hotels in every destination you dream of visiting, but we also want our hotels to hip you to destinations you hadn\u2019t considered before, be they up-and-coming or ancient. The hotels below were all recently added to our selection. And while the locations upon which they sit are quite different from one another, both in size and familiarity, they\u2019re each beginning their ride on the boutique hotel wave.<\/p>\n

Amigo Motor Lodge<\/a><\/h2>\n
Salida, Colorado<\/h5>\n

\"Amigo<\/a><\/p>\n

With America\u2019s seemingly limitless supply of mid-century motels transforming themselves one by one into boutique hotels, the average small town is suddenly many times more likely to offer a stylish and thoughtfully designed \u2014 if low-frills \u2014 place to stay. Salida, in south central Colorado, is just such a place; set on the Arkansas River, and surrounded by 14,000-foot peaks, it\u2019s a natural waypoint for adventure travel. It was just waiting for the arrival of a hotel like the Amigo Motor Lodge.<\/p>\n

Casa Hormiga<\/h2>\n

Bacalar, Mexico<\/h5>\n

\"Casa<\/a><\/p>\n

The so-called Riviera Maya may grab the headlines, but it\u2019s worth venturing a little farther, to the southern reaches of the Yucat\u00e1n Peninsula, for a truly transformative experience. We noted that the city of Bacalar was being considered the “next Tulum” all the way back in 2019. Now, with Casa Hormiga, it has its first Tablet hotel. Along the shores of the impossibly clear blue lake, rarely have raw concrete walls and thatched roofs looked so natural together.<\/p>\n

Esplanade Saarbr\u00fccken<\/h2>\n

Saarbr\u00fccken, Germany<\/h5>\n

\"Esplanade<\/a><\/p>\n

There was a time not so long ago when we wouldn\u2019t have expected a city of Saarbr\u00fccken\u2019s size, as appealingly cosmopolitan as it is, to be furnished with a boutique hotel of this caliber. But in the 2020s, you never know where you\u2019re going to find a hotel like Esplanade. The hotel makes its home in a charming 19th-century school building on Max Oph\u00fcls Square in the atmospheric Nauwieser district, just to the east of the riverside town center. Maybe you’re on a car trip through France to Germany, maybe you’re in town for the strange, UNESCO-celebrated V\u00f6lklingen Ironworks nearby. But Esplanade, with its Michelin-starred restaurant, puts this historic state capital on the map for Tablet.<\/p>\n

Pocono Mountains, Pennsylvania<\/h5>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

New York\u2019s Catskills get the lion\u2019s share of the press, but the Poconos of northeastern Pennsylvania have been due for a resurgence as well. Perhaps a bit overlooked during the boom in air travel, places like the aptly named Promised Land State Park are once again finding favor with East Coast urbanites, and the local hotels are modernizing to meet demand. This is where the Rex comes in. With just ten units it styles itself a \u201cmicro-hotel,\u201d but it\u2019s more simply a small and stylish boutique hotel, combining the charms of the country with the comforts city dwellers are used to.<\/p>\n

Twelve Senses Retreat<\/h2>\n

Encinitas, California<\/h5>\n

\"Twelve<\/a><\/p>\n

Just up the coast from San Diego, Encinitas is the perhaps the quintessential California beach town. In a place celebrated for its laid-back hippie culture, it’s now drawing hotels of as high a caliber as anywhere \u2014 although the Twelve Senses Retreat’s connection with spirituality is perhaps the perfect fit for the town’s vibe. This one-of-a-kind hotel is devoted, at least in part, to the esoteric thought of Rudolf Steiner, whose work serves as something of a manifesto. It\u2019s too much to get into here, but it\u2019s safe to say that owner\/designer Anke Bodack has a vision. Her modernist house was built in 1958, and has recently been rebuilt and expanded into the four-room mini-resort you see before you today, where each of the rooms is dedicated to one of the traditional four elements: earth, air, fire, and water.<\/p>\n

The 21c group had already planted their flag in Oklahoma City with a glittering, art-saturated hotel right downtown. But 21c is a group planting their flag all across the underserved cities of Middle America. With the Bradford House, the city gets even more boutique validation, with another hotel that provides the personality, point of view, and style that we mean when we use the word. Bradford House, in Oklahoma\u2019s vibrant Uptown district, consists of 36 bedrooms in a well-preserved 1912 apartment house, along with a modern addition decorated in a style that\u2019s not just eclectic, but personal.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Since 2016, Baku has had one of the most dramatic street circuits in Formula 1 racing. Now, it’s beginning to get boutique hotels to match. The Merchant Baku makes its home in the former headquarters of the Caspian Shipping Company \u2014 a stately 19th-century building whose front door practically faces the track. At the heart of the city\u2019s historic district and just a couple of streets over from Baku Boulevard, the style is a handsome one, eclectic and unmistakably Azerbaijani but thoroughly contemporary.<\/p>\n

Croatia may not be as plentifully supplied with extraordinary hotels as its neighbor across the Adriatic, but the best of them are up there with the most inspiring hotels in the world. The Dalmatian Coast includes a few of them already \u2014 places like D-Resort near \u0160ibenik and Hotel Luxe in the historic city of Split. But Villa Nai 3.3 brings Tablet for the first time to the island of Dugi Otok, set in a geographically charmed pinpoint some halfway between Venice and Dubrovnik. The hotel is the work of Croatian architect Nikola Ba\u0161i\u0107, whose plan called for the excavation of the interior of a hillside on the island, and whose low-profile exterior structures are built from the stone extracted from the caves.<\/p>\n

Governors Island, New York<\/h5>\n

\"Governors<\/a><\/p>\n

As stocked full of hotels as New York City is, it’s not exactly a shock that there aren’t many lodgings on Governors Island. Safe to say there\u2019s nothing else quite like it in New York City. Governors Island, of course, isn\u2019t exactly typical of New York neighborhoods \u2014 set between Brooklyn and the Statue of Liberty, a short water-taxi ride from Pier 25 in Manhattan, it\u2019s a city park that enjoys unparalleled views and an inimitable atmosphere, one that\u2019s impressively pastoral given that you could swim to Brooklyn from here (in principle; don\u2019t try it). Collective Governors Island offers the sort of grown-up summer-camp experience you\u2019d ordinarily drive to the Catskills to find, accompanied by live entertainment and cocktails on the Sunset Terrace.<\/p>\n

\"Central<\/a><\/p>\n

Mexico is hardly an untraveled corner of the world, but the state of Chihuahua has mostly stayed off the tourist path. But if any city in the region deserves a closer look, it’s Chihuahua City. And it would be hard to imagine a more distinguished setting for a hotel in Chihuahua than this, right in the heart of the historic city center, next to the Plaza de Armas and the 18th-century cathedral. And the Central Hotel Boutique makes its home in a distinguished building as well: Casa Tr\u00edas dates back to 1845, and is the city\u2019s oldest estate-style courtyard house. And today, after more than two decades under its present ownership, it\u2019s attained some distinction as a hotel: this is by a considerable distance the most stylish and most luxurious lodging in town.<\/p>\n

But there are exceptions, and with Boardwalk Boutique Hotel Aruba, we’ve found our gem: a vibrant, colorful, eclectic boutique hotel that makes no compromises on location, set as it is amid a coconut grove just a five-minute stroll from Palm Beach.<\/p>\n

Before they turned the building into a hotel, owners Nabil and Zoe Debs lived in this spectacular house in Beirut’s vibrant, bohemian Gemmayze neighborhood \u2014 it\u2019s been in the family for generations, but it\u2019s a bit much for one couple, frankly, spread out as it is across four distinct buildings (and incorporating some Roman ruins). Now it\u2019s a high-end boutique hotel, and the Arthaus name isn\u2019t bestowed lightly; the hotel\u2019s permanent collection is an impressive one, and exhibitions and art-world events are regular features here. It’s faced more than its share of challenges, but Beirut is one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the world, and we’re thrilled to see it finally getting the hotels it deserves.<\/p>\n
