SMALL LUXURY HOTELS OF THE WORLD SMALL LUXURY HOTELS OF THE WORLD hosted a gala reception and breakfast at the Mark Hotel in New York City on May 24th. Media and travel industry personnel had an opportunity to meet with over 35 representatives from the finest hotels and resorts all over the world. Dedicated to assuring superior hospitality, service, and cuisine, SMALL LUXURY HOTELS now boasts 109 hotels in its prestigious organization. Whether you are seeking a beautiful desert hideaway like The Boulders in Arizona or quaint country houses offered by The Ashley House (Llangoed Hall in Wales, The Inn at Perry Cabin in Maryland, and Keswick Hall in Virginia), their inclusion in the SMALL LUXURY HOTELS Directory guarantees that you are going to have the vacation of your life. Their international selections are just as tempting; The Inn of the Anasazi in Santa Fe, The Hotel Como in Melbourne, and The George Hotel of Christchurch, New Zealand, are just a few.
