Great British & Irish Hotels 2023/2024

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Great British & Irish Hotels… and we’re celebrating in style. We’ve asked ten of our best friends to share their favourite hotel memories with us – Theo Fennell’s answer is a hoot. We also announce the winner of our first-ever sustainability award together with EV car brand Polestar. We had some really strong entries and it’s heartening to read about the places who are putting in the hard work when it comes to people and planet. Inside you’ll find our winner plus five highly commended. 

Elsewhere, editor Fiona Duncan highlights why London’s hospitality star still shines the brightest, and Lisa Young heads to the Scottish Highlands for a low-impact tour, discovering local wine and innovative cuisine along the way. Plus,of course, there is your pick of over 200 incredible places to stay, all within the UK and Ireland. Your staycation planning starts here.
