Top five romantic hotel design schemes

Lešić Dimitri Palace Korčula
Designer: Attayut Piravinich
An 18th century bishop's palace and five medieval cottages have been upgraded with modern necessities like high-speed wireless Internet, plasma televisions and iPod docks. The hotel design pays homage to the island's most famous former resident, Marco Polo, who would doubtless have benefitted from some of the hotel's other perks, especially the private transfers by speedboat.
Thai interior specialist Attayut Piravinich cleverly designed each of the six residences to emulate a particular destination on Polo's Silk Road travels. Bespoke furniture was shipped in from Thailand and each residence has a fully-fitted kitchen.
