Monochrome Chic: Black and White Hotels
“From London to Canberra, New York to Phuket, monochrome has epitomised timeless chic since the 1920s. A palette of black, white and grey can bring a sense of peace, restfulness and sophistication to any location in the world, and our list sees it used in all sorts of styles, from art-deco classicsm to minimalist scandi-style to bold geometric patterns.

Foto Hotel, Phang Nga, Phuket

The architects who designed Foto Hotel at Kata Beach have a passion for photography that inspired both its name and cool, high-tech interior.

The panorama from the hotel’s roof-top silhouette pool is rather special, and while serious relaxation is inevitable, the luxury touches and cutting-edge technology let you capture a different view of this beautiful region.
