For all of you who followed me on Instagram and Facebook the past weeks know: I completely fell in love with South Africa. I couldn’t stop posting pictures of all those beautiful hotspots. I was surprised by the amount of great shops and restaurants like Loading Bay and Superette. Once arrived at Babylonstoren my romantic side came up: here I just have to get married one day. Declaring your love on a long, wooden table  in a greenhouse with your friends and family seems like the ultimate hotspot moment. This week I’m gonna share all my Cape Town discoveries. To inspire you to go to South Africa. Because if Read more…

This contest is closed. You can see the winner here.

The Conservatorium Hotel opened it’s doors one year ago (well exactly on December 19th in 2011) and since then it’s stunning design attracts the movers & shakers in the fashion-, design-, celebrity, and even football world. Madonna stayed at the hotel. Vogue launched their Dutch version in the lobby. And Mario Balotelli slept like a baby after playing his Champions League match.

While counting the most popular posts on Petite Passport last year it was obvious: the Conservatorium Hotel is one of your favorite hotels in the capital of the Netherlands. The design, done by Piero Lissoni, is exquisite. The former conservatorium was extended by a beautiful glass facade and the lobby was mentioned in interior magazines throughout the world. There is a bar and another restaurant upstairs: making it’s purpose reach further than only hotel. It’s a place where everyday something interesting is going on.

Together with the Conservatorium Hotel we’ve made a fantastic, exciting, thrilling contest. One of the readers here on Petite Passport is gonna stay at the Grand Duplex Suite. A suite with Read more…
