Mr and Mrs Smith Collection

Searching for chic places to stay in the UK and beyond can be a serious headache. Yes, there are some good guidebooks out there but most waste valuable space slating Alan Partridge-esque motels and overpriced impersonal palaces, neither of which cut the Dijon in the refined and sophisticated noughties. With this in mind, a discerning group of well-travelled individuals has put together a series of guide books that masterfully machete through the mire to showcase a collection of gorgeously seductive hotels in the UK and Ireland, and across Europe.
