Started by Jamie Dunford Wood – one of the founders of World Reviewer – Travel Intelligence brings together a collection of the world’s finest chic, boutique and luxury hotels. Reviews of Travel Intelligence’s extensive selection of personally vetted hotels are provided by a network of professional travel writers.
Because Travel Intelligence isn’t just about swish accommodation: as well as providing engaging, objective hotel reviews, TI’s roaming ‘special agents’ also send back a wide range of top-class
travel writing. With subjects veering from finding paradise in the wilds of Patagonia to a trawl through Shakespeare’s London, they’re a series of unmissable dispatches from the globe-trotting frontline.
