    For Vogue magazine, a truly memorable hotel must have a certain sartorial sensibility. These five properties hit the mark, whether for their stylish quarters or their proximity to all things fashion (read: Milanese workshops where couturiers hand-make masterpieces, or Tokyo’s cutting-edge streetwear shops). For example, at The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach, pictured above, guests find themselves a stone’s toss from Miami’s most popular events and some of the city’s best shopping areas. Each of these hotels is a perfect fit for any trendsetter—just be sure to leave plenty of extra room in your suitcase.

    The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach (Miami, Florida)

    Member of The Edit by Chase Travel

    For decades, this storied property at the end of Lincoln Road has served as a stage for celebrities and style icons attending Miami Swim Week. The interiors are just as swanky as the guests, from the lobby with its tropical blooms and $2 million art collection to the 1950s-inspired rooms and marble-topped Lapidus Bar. Spend an afternoon by the hotel's instantly recognizable cross-shaped pool or party at the DiLido Beach Club, where the after-hours scene is worthy of your most daring ensemble.

     

    Four Seasons Hotel Milano (Milan, Italy)

    Housed in a 15th-century convent, the Four Seasons Hotel Milano is what you might call "ecclesiastical chic." The vaulted ceilings, original frescoes and quiet garden cloister would make the ideal backdrop for any photo shoot. Also of note is the hotel's adjacency to the famous ateliers in the Quadrilatero d'Oro. After stocking up on designer wares, decamp to the chandelier-lit Stilla Bar for aperitivi accompanied by live piano music, or sip cocktails next to stylish locals in the Stilla Garden courtyard lounge. And don't miss the Patricia Urquiola-designed spa, crowned by an arched brick ceiling.

     

    The Peninsula Beverly Hills (Beverly Hills, California)

    This stately, paparazzi-proof manor has long been the address of choice for Hollywood VIPs. From the floral arrangements in the lobby to the exclusive villas with private garden entrances, it's a dream for discerning (read: recognizable) guests. Start your day with a lively Champagne brunch at the European brasserie, The Belvedere. Then follow a window-shopping marathon on Rodeo Drive with some R&R at the rooftop pool, which boasts discreet outdoor cabanas packed with amenities. Also worth checking out: the afternoon tea in The Living Room, accompanied by live harp music.

     

    Palace Hotel Tokyo (Tokyo, Japan)

    Palace Hotel Tokyo, which hovers above the Imperial Palace gardens, is deeply rooted in Japan’s heritage craftwork. Everywhere you look, you’ll find imperial stonemasonry, washi paper and other traditional techniques that give the hotel a strong sense of place. Guests can also look forward to rooms stocked with Imabari towels and Arita ceramics, Japan’s first Evian Spa and a traditional tea ritual at The Palace Lounge, which includes petits fours on lacquerware plates.

     

    Mercer Hotel Barcelona (Barcelona, Spain)

    This medieval property in the Gothic Quarter beautifully showcases local artisanship, from the pendant lights hanging from hand-painted vaulted ceilings to the original stone archways adorned with ancient Roman inscriptions. All of the 28 rooms contrast historic details and modern furnishings, like deep-soaking tubs with surrealist, Gaudi-inspired fixtures. For a quintessentially Catalonian stay, reserve the Mercer Suite and wake to views of ancient Carrer Lledó. Then do some shopping on the nearby Paseo de Gràcia before heading to the hotel's rooftop terrace for tapas and a spritz with a fun twist.
