The capsule hotel gets a slick reboot at this chain, offering smart sleeping pods in Shinjuku and elsewhere. Decent accommodation at very affordable prices.

A blissfully quiet, adults-only resort snuggled among the hoary olive groves above Kalami with magnificent views of the sea and the fishing village-cum-resort below.

An upmarket, sociable hostel oozing vintage-style chic in an old biscuit factory in downtown Reykjavik. One of the best value stays in this expensive city.

A condo-style hotel popular for its spacious suites and Asian-inspired restaurant. A perfect ski-in, ski-out location in a resort for advanced and expert skiers.
