About Us

We’re a team of three Scandinavians and a Brit, each bringing a unique perspective but all sharing a common love for exceptional hotels. Our diverse backgrounds in travel, hospitality, and design fuel our passion for finding the stays that stand out from the crowd. We’re all about the details, the quirks, and the stories that make each hotel one of a kind—and we’re excited to share our discoveries with you.

Our Mission & Vision

You’ve probably heard it before: “Why spend a lot of money on a hotel? You’re only going to sleep there.” Well, we couldn’t disagree more! For us, the hotel is a big part of the whole experience. It’s not just where you rest your head—it’s where your journey takes on a life of its own.

We believe that the right hotel can turn a good trip into an unforgettable adventure. Whether it’s staying in a grand old mansion filled with history, a boutique hotel bursting with eccentric charm, or a breathtaking retreat carved into cliffs, hotels have the power to inspire and enrich your travels. Our mission at oneofakindhotels.com is to uncover these extraordinary stays and share them with you. We seek out hotels that go beyond the ordinary, offering unique experiences that linger long after the trip is over.

Our vision is to inspire travelers to see their hotel as more than just a place to sleep. We want to connect you with stays that elevate your journey, making every moment—from the room to the view—part of a memorable story.
