Hooked on: A Room with a View

When you have a place with stunning ocean views like these, why spend much on decor? You have a perfect focal point right there outside, these gorgeous rooms are the perfect example. A simple clean interior with a stunning view, I certainly would not say no to this place, would you?

The dream of owning a place like this is a distant dream for me, so for the time being I will settle for a holiday similar to this in a gorgeous hotel, how about the Canaves Oia Hotel in Santorini? I'll leave you to enjoy the views...

Breakfast on terrace? Yes please! Happy Friday! Hope you'll have a relaxing weekend :)

Hooked on: Hôtel Vernet Paris

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, it's the perfect timing for a romantic getaway post, and I bet you're not surpised to see that our destination is indeed the elegant, beautiful and one of the most romantic cities in the world - Paris.

I actually planned on doing a post on a few gorgeous hotels in Paris but when I came across the stunning Hôtel Vernet, all other hotels just disappeared from my mind, let me show you why:

The rooms are light, elegant and has a perfect mixture of modern & classical decor, it's so hard to pick a favorite but I'm loving this gorgeous blue room.

Breakfast in bed? Oh, yes please! Love the hotel already? The best is yet to come!

I was thinking what word I should use to describe the hotel's restaurant, somehow magnificent doesn't feel "big" enough!

The lounge bar has a contempory decor but still has lots of classical details, pinks, silver and white? Can it get more glamorous and romantic than this?

Looking for more ways to boost the romanticness? How about an evening stroll along The Avenue des Champs-Élysées? It's only a 3 min walk away!

Today I'm taking part in the Hooked on Friday party, I'd be just selfish to keep this little gem all to myself right? ;) check out what everyone else's hooked on here.

Have a lovely weekend everyone! xx

J.K. Place - Capri

Continuing from the previous post, J.K. Place - Firenze's sister hotel in Capri is just as elegant and beautiful, it also has the amazing seaviews as its advantage. The result is reflected in its prices, starting from 500 euros per night! So for those of us who can't afford to stay there, here's some pictures to keep the dream going...

J.K. Place - Firenze

Saw this gorgeous hotel while browsing on Trip Advisor this morning (just one of the random things I like to do, planning for the next holiday which is 9 months away!) The interior is elegantly decorated with a mixture of modern and classical pieces. I love the way it uses lots of framed prints of classical drawings. Here are some pictures to feast your eyes:

The rates of the rooms are not cheap but it would be a great hotel for honeymoons!
