One of the best parts of booking with a Fora Advisor (and there are many) is Fora's relationships with thousands of hotels around the world. Our team works to negotiate these special partnerships for our Fora Advisors, enabling them to level up travelers' stays with ease. We're thrilled to share our latest roundup of partnerships.

The Hoxton, Poblenou & The Hoxton, Rome

We're big fans of the Hoxton brand for their urban-chic boutique hotels worldwide. We're especially excited about this partnership, as a way to offer more variety to our traveler community. (We wanted to highlight more lifestyle properties that also have a sense of place — which can be hard to come by at this price point.) It's also rare to get perks at lifestyle brands like The Hoxton, so we're thrilled to provide them to our community.

Located in the artsy el Poblenou neighborhood, the Barcelona property is a favorite. Terra-cotta floors, handwoven tapestries and sophisticated earth tones decorate the Mediterranean-inspired rooms. Head to the rooftop for poolside tacos with a view, or to Four Corners for deep-dish pizza and a glass of natural wine. The hotel is also kid-friendly: parents can book a Tiny Hox stay to have their room equipped with a crib (with an organic mattress), bottle warmer and other goodies like a branded coloring book.

Meanwhile, The Hoxton, Rome seamlessly blends chic, contemporary decor with mid-century Italian design. Rooms feature a bold color palette, parquet floors, brass lighting and other details (statement walls, vintage radios). Guests will be within walking distance of some of the city's best art museums and parks, as well as local pizza and gelato gems. Or, linger at the hotel. Its California-inspired Beverly restaurant is perfect for a farm-to-table meal in a bright and airy space.

The Whitney Hotel Boston

This sophisticated oasis in Boston's historic Beacon Hill neighborhood is a Fora favorite — we even hosted an advisor meetup there. We love working with the in-house team, and the hotel offers a seamless booking experience for our advisor community. Travelers can expect a refined, understated aesthetic at this boutique gem, with handsome wood floors, smart furnishings and a brick townhouse setting. Clean beauty enthusiasts (and everyone, for that matter) will appreciate the bath amenities from the luxe Australian skincare brand Grown Alchemist. Coastal Italian fare is served at the sleek Peregrine restaurant.

COMO Hotels and Resorts (select properties)

We dream of COMO's properties. The brand has two levels (luxury and lifestyle), and, thanks to Fora's partnership, when you book with us, you'll access perks at properties (including those not part of Virtuoso Travel) in a wider range of price points. From COMO Cocoa Island, an idyllic escape on a private island in the Maldives, to COMO Le Montrachet, a 19th-century estate in Burgundy, each COMO hotel is supremely special, with a well-curated menu of immersive experiences.

Mauna Lani, Auberge Resorts Collection

The Big Island's Mauna Lani is our latest hotel obsession, and our exclusive partnership means our travelers are always VIP. With stylish accommodations (featuring local materials and floor-to-ceiling windows) and top-notch service, Mauna Lani provides a luxurious island oasis suited to virtually every type of traveler. There is no shortage of activities here: witness the release of baby turtles, schedule an underwater ocean training session or learn to play the ‘ukulele. Head to the sumptuous spa for a signature goopGLOW facial, featuring products from the eponymous wellness brand, or a rejuvenating massage using locally harvested ingredients. Dinner at CanoeHouse is not to be missed. The Japanese-inspired restaurant celebrates the Big Island's local bounty in a refined oceanfront setting — the perfect way to end a perfect day.
