Allow us to introduce you to some of the ultimate, ultraluxe designer hotel suites in the world. Far from utilitarian, each of these suites has fallen under the magic touch of a world-renowned fashion designer - and the results are so stunning, you may never check out (assuming you can afford to check in, that is). - B.H.



The Vera Wang Suite
Halekulani, Waikiki, Hawaii
Pacific and Asian in mood, this elegantly sensual suite celebrates Hawaiian culture while showcasing the savvy design instinct that is Vera Wang. Buddhas and antique Chinese furniture merge with one-of-a-kind Vera Wang creations, including throw pillows, china, crystal, and candles. $5,000 to $6,850 per night. (800) 367-2343, www.halekulani.com

The Fashion Rooms
Royal Windsor Hotel Grand Place, Brussels
To celebrate Brussels's nascent fashion scene, this hotel entrusted the redecoration of 10 of its corner rooms to an equal number of acclaimed Belgian fashion designers. Idiosyncratic and novel, each suite is like a clothing item created by luminaries such as Kaat Tilley (a vintage, all-white symphony), Marina Yee (futuristic, unexpected spaces and organic forms), and Nicolas Woit (sumptuous velvet, a palette of reds, and a starlit sky). $296 to $532 per night. 011-32-2-505-5555, www.royalwindsorbrussels.com

The Dorchester, London
