10 exceptional hotelsfor every destination

Curated excellence

Brilliance isn't found in endless lists - it's carefully chosen.

Nowadays, finding a truly remarkable hotel feels harder than ever. Booking platforms are flooded with options. Dozens, sometimes hundreds, of properties per destination, most boasting above-average ratings.

Review scores and ratings are losing their meaning.

If every above-average property boasts a 4.5/5 rating,
how do you tell which ones truly stand out?

Finding an exceptional place to stay should feel effortless, not overwhelming.

That is why we did the hard work for you. We personally screen every single relevant hotel in a destination, apply a meticulous mix of subjective and objective criteria, and handpick just 10 properties that genuinely stand out.

We are not another aggregator. We curate for excellence.

What is 10 Stays about?1

10 Stays is a curated collection of one of a kind accommodations worldwide. Instead of overwhelming travellers with countless options, we carefully select just ten outstanding hotels per location - each chosen for its quality, character, and guest experience. Our goal is to make hotel selection effortless by providing a refined, trustworthy list of places that meet our high standards.

How do you choose the hotels featured on 10 Stays?2

Our selection process combines both objective criteria and subjective insight. While we analyze objective metrics like guest reviews, location and amenities, we also look beyond the numbers. We seek out properties that stand out - those with character, charm, and a true sense of place. By blending data with a discerning eye for uniqueness, we ensure that every recommendation captures the essence of its destination. To maintain our high standards, we periodically reassess and refine our selections, keeping our recommendations fresh and relevant.

How often do you publish new hotels and destinations?3

We regularly expand our collection, following a carefully planned roadmap. Each destination is chosen well in advance, and we work through our list to ensure thorough research and selection. When a destination is approaching its release - typically a few weeks away - we tease it on our Destinations overview page. To stay up to date on our latest additions, you can subscribe to our newsletter for future announcements and updates.

Is 10 Stays only for luxury hotels?4

Not necessarily. While many of our selected hotels fall into the luxury category, our focus is on excellence rather than price alone. Some properties might be boutique gems, stylish design hotels, or unique accommodations with incredible service and atmosphere. Our aim is to highlight hotels that stand out in their category, whether high-end, mid-range, or boutique, ensuring that our platform features only truly exceptional places to stay.
