Saturday, December 16, 2023

Today, The Points Guy (TPG) has unveiled its annual compilation of the most exhilarating newly opened hotels worldwide for the current year. This year’s roster of remarkable establishments is the most extensive in TPG’s history, encompassing an array of accommodations ranging from extravagant jetsetter favorites to concealed tropical getaways, as well as economical points-based hotels, enabling families to pocket substantial savings on their vacations.

Ellie Nan Storck, TPG’s managing editor of hotels, stated, “At The Points Guy, our commitment is to cater to the diverse needs of travelers, whether it be a college student embarking on their maiden solo adventure, newlyweds indulging in a lavish safari honeymoon, families reuniting in familiar destinations, or curious explorers seeking to discover a new locale. That’s precisely why readers will find our selection to be one of the most inclusive cross-sections among all hotel rankings available today.”

This year’s compilation results from extensive hours (and nights) of exploration and analysis by TPG’s accomplished team of hotel connoisseurs, supplemented by input from contributors worldwide. The team meticulously evaluated numerous recently inaugurated hotels in the United States and abroad, considering factors such as service quality, architectural design, amenities, location, and the distinctive character of each property. After personally inspecting many of these establishments, TPG meticulously selected 37 exceptional properties that encapsulate the excitement of modern travel and the prevailing trends in the hospitality sector.

The hotels featured on this list breathe new life into historic landmarks, such as the illustrious Raffles London at the Old War Office, and revive beloved classics, such as the rebirth of the Regent Hong Kong and the rejuvenation of the iconic Kona Village, now a Rosewood Resort in Hawaii. From the lofty heights of Bhutan’s Himalayas to the serene shores of Aruba, where a new Embassy Suites offers an affordable yet upscale family vacation option for Hilton points enthusiasts, this compilation has a destination for every traveler, especially those astute travelers seeking to optimize their experiences while minimizing expenses.

As we enter 2024, TPG eagerly shares this list, spanning various price ranges and spanning six continents, to cater to every kind of traveler.
