July 8, 2023 - Grande Hotel do Porto at R. de Santa Catarina 197. Porto, Portugal
The entrance to The Fox, a rooftop bar etc in an old hotel just down Melbourne Street, South Brisbane from the Victoria Bridge. I am pretty sure when we passed a few months back, the whole lot is now closed although it is still advertised as being open as the Fox Hotel. The sign beside the door inside lists some of the venues upstairs.
It used to be called something more traditional but I can't pin it down right away. I was sure it was the Melbourne Hotel but it seems it was further down the street. I am no more of this scene.
The various entrances were hardly auspicious and appeared closed and abandoned.
This cozy pathway, sheltered by a lush green archway of leaves, leads to the inviting entrance of the Red Lion Hotel. The dappled sunlight filtering through the foliage creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely stroll before enjoying the hospitality of this charming establishment.

June 27, 2023 - "Since it opened in 1912, Hotel Maria Cristina, a Luxury Collection Hotel has been intimately linked to the history and cultural life of San Sebastian. In the late 19th century the seaside town on the southern point of the Bay of Biscay became a favorite destination for royalty and aristocrats who came to enjoy the sunshine and newly recognized therapeutic properties of sea bathing. A traditional afternoon stroll along the boardwalk offered an opportunity to see and be seen while the many cafés and open-air terraces were filled with high society. San Sebastian had passed from being a sleepy fishing village into a thriving cosmopolitan town requiring luxurious, modern facilities to meet the demands of its discerning guests. The majestic design of the hotel by architect Charles Mewes, the man responsible for the Ritz in Madrid and Paris, combined with the property’s enviable river setting and sea views, resulted in it immediately becoming the favored accommodation for international high society."
