How will our first steps set us on a new path—one that meets the complexity of the moment with radical change and a whole new mindset?
Much of the last year at Design Hotels has been spent ruminating on this, which is why the new issue of Directions, titled “Odyssey,” is especially close to our hearts.
Over the beautifully illustrated pages of our annual magazine, we share some gentle expeditions taken on foot—from Peru’s Sacred Valley to the streets of Amsterdam, and we share a list that distills some of our feelings and actions towards a more conscious destination.
We think of it as the ethos of the good traveler.
The good traveler is considerate and respectful, moving with the lightest of steps possible and equipping both mind and body for their journeys.
To get closer to this goal, we humbly share this mental packing list. It is one we intend to keep working on, as best we can, one step at a time... with you.
About Design Hotel
Design Hotels represents and markets a curated selection of over 285 independent hotels in more than 60 countries across the globe. More than a collection of hotels, the company is a collection of stories. Each property reflects the ideas of a visionary hotelier, an "Original", someone with a passion for genuine hospitality, cultural authenticity, thought-provoking design and architecture. Each "Original" stands for the individual, aesthetic and service-driven experience that his or her hotel provides.
In 2017, Design Hotels launched Further, a traveling laboratory for experiential hospitality that transforms hotels across the globe into temporal hubs of thematic exploration. The mission behind Further aligns with the values of the future-facing Promad, a new generation of traveler embracing progressive travel and global nomadism. First identified by Design Hotels in collaboration with leading futures consultancy The Future Laboratory, the purpose-driven, self-actualizing Promadic movement is set to shape the future of hospitality.
Founded by Claus Sendlinger in 1993, Design Hotels offers its members insightful travel industry knowledge, from market trend consultancy to international sales representation. The company has its headquarters in Berlin and branches in London, Los Angeles, New York and Singapore. In 2019, Design Hotels joined forces with Marriott Bonvoy, enabling its member hotels to have both a greater and more selective reach while offering its Community the benefit of the industry’s leading loyalty program.
