COMO Hotels and Resorts recently announced its expansion into the world of cruising with the launch of COMO Journey: Into the Arctic. Setting sail July 30, this 11-day expedition gives guests the chance to encounter native wildlife and explore the wilderness of the remote, northern Svalbard Archipelago.
The journey, in collaboration with the award-winning expertise of Natural World Safaris, combines unrivaled access with exclusive insights. This trip will cover one of the world’s most remote regions, with highlights including fjords and snow-covered islands, complemented by the brand’s signature offerings like COMO Shambhala wellness and COMO cuisine.
The trip will include off-ship, zodiac safaris led by a team of expedition guides headed by specialist leader Andy Mann. Expect sightings of Arctic fox, Svalbard reindeer, sunbathing walrus and whales breaching the icy seas.
On the first night, guests will enjoy the charming Norwegian town of Longyearbyen before boarding M/S Polarfront. Formerly a Norwegian weather ship, this boat has been transformed into an Arctic expedition cruise vessel outfitted with eight light-filled suites, each equipped with large portholes and en-suite bathrooms. The ship also features a sauna and hot tub, an on-board therapist offering curated treatments, and on-board dining bringing the brand’s signature East-West fusion cuisine to the Arctic.

Oct 23, 2024The Salil Hotel Riverside Review
There are luxury hotels throughout Bangkok that deftly combine minimalist style, decorative accents, historic Thai iconography and luxuriant amenities. While Salil Hotel Riverside Bangkok, opened in late 2023, falls into the 5-star boutique hotel category, it is, by design, not a run-of-the-mill luxury property. The lobby makes an immediate impression, while different public spaces, rooms and suites immerse one into an ambiance rooted in Thai history, all while capturing a Bangkok that is a touch irreverent and forward-looking.
