It took the J.K team over five
years to find the perfect spot for
J.K. Place Paris (82 Rue de Lille,
75005 Paris, France; jkplace.paris).
It’s located on the Left Bank near
Boulevard Saint Germain. This is
the first property from the group
outside of Italy and it’s one of the
most buzzed openings of the year.
J.K Place Paris has 30 guestrooms
and suites decorated by designer
Michele Bonan with bespoke Italian
furniture and antiques from the
famous Paris flea markets. No
worries, all of them are carefully
restored to form talking points in
the guest rooms and public places.
There is also an indoor pool, Sisley
Spa and a J.K. F&B experience in
partnership with Casa Tua.Oui, Paris!

The Maldives is really becoming the hotspot for the island luxury
hospitality market in the past few years. Not often do we feature more than
one property from a single location, but how can we miss the mesmerizing
Waldorf Astoria Maldives Ithaafushi (Ithaafushi Island, South Male Atoll,
Republic of Maldives; +960 4000 300; waldorfastoria3hilton.com)? Other
than its rather convenient address and the 122 body and soul pampering
beach, reef and overwater villas, the resort made news for having 11 dining
venues! Also to note, they’re the base for watersports and children water
park–all within the property!
