About Vignette™ Collection.

We’ve created a collection brand that gives guests an inspiring new choice. A family of one-off hotels where guests can indulge a growing passion for stays that are authentic, experiential and considerate.

Unique and proudly independent, our hotels all embody luxury in a different way. What they share is a commitment to a succinct set of standards that we know discerning guests seek out and love.

Our hotels are unique in their own right, with their own distinct outlook and story to tell. And yet they’re all connected by a shared vision – travel can benefit local people and places.

Weaving responsibility, community and locality together, our collection exists to make a positive impact in every way.
