The Hotel Book. Great Escapes Asia The Hotel Book. Great Escapes Asia

Click picture to look inside


Much more than a travel or holiday guide, Great Escapes Asia is first and foremost a heavenly photo album. Featuring opulent photographs of places that seem too perfect to be real, this book will quickly convince you that an Asian sojourn is crucial to your mental and physical wellbeing. The icing on the cake is that not only do these hotels really exist, but - thanks to the pricing and contact information provided - you can succumb to their charms and book yourself a room:

- In Kerala, India, choose between luxurious tree houses suspended 25 metres off the ground or futuristic-looking, Star Wars-style houseboats made of bamboo poles, palm leaves and coconut fibres
- Are you more the resplendent-resort or budget-bungalow type? Find the best of both in Bali
- The best place for a delectable cup of joe: a luxury lodge and spa on a java plantation in (yes) Java
- In the Philippines, an organic resort composed of superimposed huts whose every room affords instant access to the beach via rope ladder
- Tadao Ando's sprawling minimalist concrete-and-steel hotel attached to the contemporary art museum in Naoshima, Japan
- Thatched-roof cottages in India whose gardens overflow with mangos, nutmeg and cardamom
- An Ayurvedic spa in the Himalayas where nothing matters but peace and relaxation
- Chairman Mao's former getaway in Beijing, where you can rent his lavish, traditionally-decorated suite complete with adjoining concubine rooms

Includes Cambodia, China, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Nepal, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, India, Sri Lanka, Vietnam
