Eye Candy that's Smooth, Sophisticated and Sweet

I really enjoyed this installment of Hip Hotels. As expected, the pictures are yummy enough to qualify as "gourmet eye candy". But, to me, it's Ypma's commentary that really steals the show: The writing is served up for those in-the-know and flavored with a perspective that's both witty and inviting.

Ultimate Coffee Table Book, but how do you book?

Mr. Ypma is a gifted photographer and a careful writer - a rare combination. Great selection of hotels. It is the perfect coffee table version of cool new online services such as the great "tablethotels.com" which also work as a trip planner.

EXCELLENT BOOK

JUST THE BOOK I WAS LOOKING FOR WITH GREAT PICTURES IN THE BAHAMAS AND BALI, MUSTIQUE, ETC. THE BOOK IS A VACATION IN ITSELF. WORTH THE MONEY.

INSPIRATIONAL

A symphony of colors and true escape locations. The text is entertaining and the 45 hotels featured are truly inspirational. A great help for planning the next holiday!
