\"World\u2019sCN Traveler has released its picks for the best small hotels in the world, a collection of luxury properties with no more than 20 rooms, located in remote places (a Peruvian canyon, a volcanic Mediterranean crater rim, etc.).<\/p>\n

Taking the top spot among readers with a score of 99.2, is La Residence, Franschhoek, an opulent property set in South Africa\u2019s food and wine heartland, about an hour\u2019s drive from Cape Town.<\/p>\n

“Opening onto wide verandas and mountain views, the 11 extravagant suites are layered with French and Asian antiques, fantastic local art, and Persian carpets, and each has its own personality\u2014from a girly boudoir in pink and lime green to a palatial honeymoon suite in white marble,\u201d raves CN Traveler.<\/p>\n

Decor is a mix of elegant antiques, Persian rugs, lavish but plush furnishings, one-of-a-kind art works, and warm, inviting colors in rooms that harken everything from the Orient and the Far East to French and Italian glamour.<\/p>\n

In addition to sumptuous quarters, La Residence is known for its spa and dining offerings.<\/p>\n

Tied for second place with 98.5 points are Casa de Sierra Nevada in Mexico, and Perivolas in Santorini, Greece.<\/p>\n

A mix of 16th to 18th-century d\u00e9cor, the Spanish colonial buildings at Casa de Sierra Nevada are described as unlike any other property in the world, while Perivolas sits on a cliff on the edge of the island\u2019s caldera, a basin-like depression formed in the aftermath of a volcanic eruption.<\/p>\n
