This Anacapri icon has grown both physically and conceptually over the years, amassing a noted art collection, launching a fashion and home line (including a line of Capritouch shoes, custom made for each client), and working with some of Italy's top names on unique design touches.

At Fodor's, hotels are more than our lifeblood—they're our passion. With every stay, we obsess over design choices, service attributes, and guest amenities. To compile the Fodor's 100 Hotel Awards, we start with some 4,000 Fodor's Choice and new property reviews, poring over the list for months, winnowing our top selections. And it's not just us. Our team of 14 in-house editors (with decades of travel-editorial know-how between them) works closely with the more than 500 correspondents around the globe who visit every single property we review. We also select a new suite of hotel categories that is most relevant and impactful for a given year. Some reflect emerging trends (Creative Conversions, Home Suite Homes), while others embody the Fodor's brand values of authenticity (Local Characters) and accessible luxury (Enduring Classics). Truly, there's nowhere in the world we'd rather stay right now than at one of these 100 hotels.
