Take one sprawling Scottish property. Add infamous international art dealer Hauser & Wirth. The result? A wonderfully maximalist country house hotel surrounded by the Cairngorms, close to Balmoral. The Fife Arms has been synonymous with the Highland village of Braemar since Queen Victoria began to spend time at Balmoral. Of the 46 rooms and suites, the extraordinarily opulent royal suites are packed with art and antiques, and even objects once owned by royalty. The Victoriana suites reflect that era with rich textures and colours, while the Scottish Culture rooms celebrate notable natives. Owner Iwan Wirth says that everything in the hotel must have a purpose and a story, which includes commissions from contemporary artists, too, making the Fife Arms truly relevant for the 21st century.
