Our J/PR UK team hosted an intimate dinner at The River Cafe in London to celebrate the launch of Villa d'Este La Collezione – a new luxury Italian hotel group entering its first season this year. Alongside CEO Davide Bertilaccio, we shared a first look at what promises to be an exceptional debut season across this remarkable collection of Italian properties. A glimpse of what's coming: → Miralago Luxury Apartments: a new boutique hotel on Lake Como with eight stunning lakefront suites → Palazzo Venezia in Como, expanding with the opening of Caffè Cavour, a historic 19th-century pastry shop → The legendary Villa d'Este, returning with a headline Summer Concert featuring Sting → Villa La Massa in Florence, with Iris Month, a supercar showcase, and a beautiful autumn programme Media attendees from The Times, Wallpaper*, Bloomberg, The Standard, London, Citizen Femme, Elite Traveler, Quintessentially, Financial Times, Country & Town House, British Airways High Life, Harper's Bazaar, ELLE Decor, among others, also received inside knowledge of the exciting Villa Belinzaghi project and the group's recently acquired Hotel Regina Olga in Cernobbio. Here's to an incredible season ahead! #VilladEste #LuxuryHospitality #LakeComo #ItalianHotels

"A great hotel pool has almost nothing to do with exercise. It is theater. A place to see and be seen, certainly, but also a place where a hotel reveals what kind of fantasy it is serving... The best ones create a temporary world unto themselves — complete with rituals, regulars, and an unspoken social code that everyone immediately understands." Town & Country's Special Projects Editor William Li asked some of the most discerning travelers to weigh in on the perfect pool, and where in the world you need to go to find one. J/PR's Sarah Evans describes the magic of Il San Corrado di Noto - Sicily Luxury Experience. Set within a restored Sicilian masseria in the Val di Noto, the hotel balances contemporary restraint with the romance of the surrounding landscape — olive groves, Baroque architecture, and a sense of quiet luxury that feels increasingly rare. Another Italian icon not to be missed is Lake Como's Villa d'Este, celebrated for its floating design and lakeside glamour. In California, equally iconic are the timeless pools of Dorchester Collection’s Hotel Bel-Air and The Beverly Hills Hotel — two properties that continue to define the glamour and mythology of Los Angeles hospitality.

We're proud to share the ultimate love letter to Toronto, captured so beautifully by Alex Postman and Yolo Journal. "Toronto is a city that is often underestimated—as a high-rise-filled metropolis that’s a doppelgänger for New York on TV, but cleaner and less exciting… And yet what most people don’t realize is just how massive this city on Lake Ontario really is, and how diverse." "Toronto is so many things to so many different people that it can be hard to categorize, but that eclectic mix is exactly what makes this hospitable city so cool. Whether our contributors grew up in Toronto or made it their adopted home, they remain just as proud to be living in The Six." If you're planning your next trip to Toronto, look no further than this list. Destination Toronto | J/PR https://lnkd.in/eQWpchK6

Sun-soaked days, yacht adventures along the Aegean coastline and wellness beneath the trees. ✨ Earlier this month, the J/PR London team had the pleasure of hosting a first-look press trip to newly opened Ahãma Living on Turkey’s stunning Fethiye Riviera, one of the most exciting wellness openings of 2026. Hidden within 20 hectares of protected sigla forest on the Turkish Riviera, Ahãma Living offers a fresh take on holistic luxury, centred around nature, design, craftsmanship and slow living.

We were delighted to host an evening of backgammon, beats and island spirit in celebration of our client Jamaica Inn Hotel last night, bringing a touch of the Caribbean to Mount Street Restaurant’s private Games Room. A longstanding part of Jamaica Inn’s identity, backgammon set the tone for the evening - a nod to the Inn’s enduring philosophy of digital detox and meaningful connection. Guests were among the first to discover the Inn’s new bespoke boards, as well as hear from the Morrow family on what’s ahead, from upcoming renovations to their commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2027. In partnership with Backgammon and Wax, the space came alive with competitive play, vinyl DJ sets and plenty of rum punch, with beginners and seasoned players alike joining in. A brilliant evening celebrating heritage, community and a slower, more intentional way of travelling.
