The World’s Sexiest Hotels

As we prepare for the impending cold snap here Down Under, LE Miami has just named this year’s sexiest hotels at their annual event.

“Creating a sexy hotel is no longer about a particular style or design, it is more about creating a theatrical, glamorous environment,” Serge Dive, founder of luxury travel industry event, LE Miami, tells News Corp.

“A sexy hotel embraces its neighbourhood and geography,” adds head of the awards panel Rana Florida, whose company Creative Class Group consults for luxury firms. “A hotel that celebrates its diversity and culture — that dares to be different and takes risks.”

Soho House Istanbul took the top honour in the Sexiest Design category, with LE Miami listing the ten hotels shortlisted in the category which they define as “revolutionary new interiors to awe-inspiring architecture and super sleek transport, we’re seeking inventive design that has made a significant impact within the industry in the last year.
