Savi and Vid have been to over 500 cities in 70 countries, following their love of offbeat and luxury travel. From hiking glaciers in Alaska to dining with Penguins in South Africa, their adventures and photographs have been featured on several TV stations and newspapers, including Discovery Channel and the Huffington Post. They are particularly in love with road trips and in the last year alone, they’ve driven over 20,000 miles in a dozen countries. They write about their experiences on www.bruisedpassports.com.
This quirky designer hotel in Iceland’s capital epitomises Scandinavian elegance. The boutique hotel boasts of handsome 1960s-style furnishings and rugged wood accents. The hotel has an extensive DVD library, Jacuzzi, sauna, gym and a steam room. It even offers in-room spa treatments to all guests. All rooms are bedecked with flat screen TVs, iPod docks, mini bars, and DVD players. The bathrooms are stocked with luxurious Aveda products. Opt for a room overlooking the harbour for a memorable stay.
The communal areas at 101 Hotel exhibit the work of upcoming local artists and showcase Icelandic talent. This lends it an edge that is hard to beat. The in-house bar and restaurant are casual yet uber-trendy. The spa is slick and achingly cool. 101 Hotel manages to be hip, cool and modern all at once. We’re besotted with it—highly recommended.
