Savoring Savannah: Food, Design, History, Future

Savannah wears its history on its sleeve. The architecture, the food, even the future — all of it feeds through the filter of the past. You see it throughout town, and you see it at Hotel Bardo.

Did you hear the news? Tablet turns 25 this year, and we’re kicking off the celebrations with a rather enormous 25th anniversary sale, featuring deals and discounts at dozens of hotels around the world.

Tiny morsels from the world of Tablet

For its 13th anniversary, the Palihotel Melrose — the first Palihotel in the Pali portfolio — is sporting a completely redesigned look and feel. Go and give L.A. some much-needed love.

This spring, Aria Budapest, a lavish music-themed hotel with spaces dedicated to everyone from Maria Callas to Count Basie to Bob Dylan, is screening live HD performances of London’s Royal Opera and Ballet. That’s cool.

Puglia, home of the masseria, can now boast direct flights from New York — via NEOS airlines — to go with its bounty of farmhouse hotels. As if you needed any more excuses to visit southern Italy.

David Lynch was a regular at Hotel Lutetia in Paris. In fact, the director was such a fan of the Art Nouveau/Art Deco icon that, in 2012, he designed one of its signature suites. RIP king.

The longest stay booked on Tablet in the past month? 28 nights at the Tanneries Hotel and Spa in Crete, Greece. 28 nights! Nice work if you can get it.
