For three nights only (the 7th, 8th and 9th of December 2018), an unforgettable, festive experience will be popping up in London; book a night in the 2,000-square-foot Soho townhouse, House of Sparkle, and you’ll be staying in a space bedecked from floor to ceiling in glitter and sequins.

But for those unable to secure one of these three special overnight stays, here are five equally dazzling, alternative accommodations around the world.

Located on the tree-shaped Palm Jumeirah island, this is one of the most lavish Waldorf Astorias in the world. A hotel made for spoiling yourself, it’s surrounded by super yachts and malls filled with designer boutiques, has its own private beach, six fine-dining restaurants and two swimming pools. The decor drips with decadence, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Arabian Gulf, countless chandeliers and miles of ivory marble.

The Acqualina Resort and Spa, Miami Beach, USA

Join the glitterati heading to Miami’s palm-lined, white sandy beaches, and book a stay at the oceanfront Acqualina Resort & Spa. Here, suites bedecked in crystal and silvery silk fabric boast private balconies overlooking Florida’s turquoise seas.

Hôtel de Crillon, Paris, France

Between Paris’ tree-lined Champs-Elysées, the Jardin de Tuileries and the Louvres lies the palatial Hôtel de Crillon. With antiques aplenty, gold leaf and fresco-cov

ered walls, and chandeliers, it’s about as glitzy as it gets.

Riad Melhoun & Spa, Marrakech, Morocco

Treat yourself to a festive escape by living like royalty at this exquisite Moroccan riad. With resplendent suites bordering a lantern-lit, exotic plant-filled courtyard, guests have access to the mosaiced plunge pool as well as a rooftop terrace overlooking the city’s medina. And just a short walk away, you’ll find the magnificent El Badi and Bahia Palaces, as well as the Jardins Majorelles, a glorious botanical garden once owned by fashion designer, Yves Saint-Laurent.

Grand Hyatt Shanghai, Shanghai, China

With glittering panoramic views of Shanghai’s waterfront and its illuminated, skyscraper-studded skyline, the Grand Hyatt Shanghai guarantees a dazzling stay.
