Hotels opening in autumn 2023

One&Only Aesthesis, Athens, Greece

One&Only’s latest European opening, in Montenegro, was one of 2021’s knockout stays. The 2023 follow-up is in one of our favourite cities, Athens, set on a private oceanfront estate. Rooms pivot around the Athenian Riviera views and coastline, mezes and authentic Grecian dishes will spotlight locally sourced ingredients, and the spa will offer treatments hand in hand with Chenot Spa.

Bowie House, Fort Worth Texas, USA

Once a restaurant, Rick’s On The Bricks, then a pub, The Ginger Man, this Fort Worth opening is all about regenerating a loved local hangout. Auberge Resorts (Stanly Ranch in Napa Valley, Hotel Jerome in Aspen) are at the helm. This is a Texas-sized boutique hotel – there are 88 rooms and 18 suites, plus a restaurant, lobby bar and terrace.

&Beyond Punakha River Lodge, Bhutan

&Beyond’s first Asian lodge will launch in Bhutan, a country with no shortage of smart lodges to choose from. &Beyond’s offering, however, overlooks the Himalaya Mountains, set right on the banks of the Mo Chu River. Safari-style tents, one-room River House Suites with a hot tub and a family suite with a private pool have all been built in the traditional Bhutanese style, as has the spa and yoga studio. Travellers can take cooking classes, visit local farms and try their hand at rafting, fishing or archery.

Bulgari Rome, Italy

The sparkly Italian jewellery brand opened its first hotel nearly 20 years ago and followed up with glossy outposts in London, Dubai, Bali and, most recently, Paris. 2023 will bring with it the opening of Bulgari Roma, set in a 1930s-built modernist building around the corner from the Spanish Steps. It will open in the autumn, with a restaurant overseen by Niko Romito – known for three Michelin-starred Reale in a 16th-century Abruzzo monastery – as well as an appointment-only reading room dedicated to the history of jewellery, a spa, and a top-floor bar with covetable views.
