About

Founded by Sophie Cullen, The Hotel Journal showcases a curated selection of unique accommodations that have all been vetted by our team of veteran travel and design journalists.

We make it our mission to tell the stories of the most unique, beautiful, and down-right awe-inspiring hotels, and the talented people behind them. From boutique properties in heritage European buildings to modern hideaways in Asia, if you’re a stylish traveller who loves checking in somewhere fabulous, you’ll be right at home here.

Along with knowing where to stay, we also have insider information on how to connect with every destination that we visit, whether that’s learning how to cook a traditional dish with a local Grandma, getting up-close-and personal with hidden cultural landmarks, or getting exclusive access to sites that other travellers can’t. We’re committed to connecting with communities so that we support local economies and give back to the locations that we visit, and we’ll show you how to do that too.

We can’t wait for you to see what we’ve seen.
