Hotel Interior Design
Beautiful hotels inspire. Memorable hotels stay with us long after we’ve checked out.
Founded by award-winning interior designer Simone Aïda Baur, Global Inspirations Design’s blog is shaped by her 14 years in international luxury hospitality, 12 years as an interior designer and blogger and her commitment to vegan living. This unique combination brings a distinctive perspective to every hotel review, exploring architecture, interiors, guest journey and the thoughtful details that leave a lasting impression.
From intimate boutique hotels and historic landmarks to contemporary luxury resorts across Switzerland, Europe, the Caribbean and beyond, Simone uncovers the details that set each property apart, from inspiring architecture and thoughtful interiors to environmentally conscious practices and innovative vegan hospitality. Together, these are the elements that define the guest experience and make a hotel truly memorable.
Whether planning the next getaway, seeking interior design inspiration or exploring exceptional hospitality experiences around the world, readers will discover hotels that inspire.
