Vote for your favourite hotel in the 2015 Smith Hotel Awards

Let’s face it, the hotel you stay at for your vacation is part and parcel of the whole holiday experience. From the exquisiteness of the decor to the intricate details present in the bedroom and of course the breathtaking pools, there’s nothing quite like feeling a million bucks while at your home away from home.

So to celebrate all the good things put into making that experience truly one of a kind, the Smith Hotel Awards returns – for the third year running – to crown the best of the best in the world of boutique hotels. Given the honour to decide on that, the esteemed panel of international judges include, Charlotte Dellal, founder of Charlotte Olympia, Paul Gabie, CEO Proof & Co and Paul Semple, Principal, Hassell.

With 12 categories to mull over and four judges assigned for each, by the end of it we’ll get to uncover a whole slew of bests – ranging from Best Hotel Pool to Sexiest Bedroom in the World and Best Spa Hotel.

James Lohan, Founder, Mr & Mrs Smith enthused, “The awards give us the chance to shine a light on small, independent stays like Uxua Casa in Brazil, which won Best Smith Hotel last year, and also to celebrate the classics. Our aim is to create the ultimate boutique hotel hotlist for 2016 with the 12 properties that come out on top. This year, we’re joined by some great new judges too, from Rodial founder Maria Hatzistefanis to frequent traveller and fashion designer Henry Holland.”

Now to get things rolling, voting is open to the public at smithhotelawards.com from now to 30 September 2015 and get this, voters will stand the chance to win from a bunch of luxury gifts thanks to Smith’s partners, including a £1,000 Get a Room!
