Amangiri, Utah

‘The architecture of this hotel is really my vibe: they’ve taken the energy of the landscape and built it in to the bricks and mortar. The terrain of Utah makes you feel like a fish out of water as a Brit – as if you’re on the moon. You’re so used to damp and green, and then suddenly you’re hiking in canyons. It’s not really possible to understand the vastness until you live here. In England we get excited about hills and sheep.’ aman.com. Suites from about £1,475

Corinthia Hotel, London

‘I lived here for three months when I did a play, The Leisure Society, at Trafalgar Studios; if I felt I was getting cabin fever, they’d move me into another room. Now I always stay when I’m in town – I know every single person who works here! The spa is amazing, so when I get back from work I head straight to one of the pools and chill out – which is so rare to be able to do in London.’ corinthia.com. Doubles from £400

Hotel Tivoli, upstate new York

‘It’s owned by painters Brice and Helen Marden, so the decor here can be pretty stimulating. I love coming in apple-picking season, when the countryside is vibrant with vivid oranges and yellows. My husband and I hike in the Catskills and swim in waterholes. The Tivoli is near the town of Hudson, where we go antiquing – and there’s a great flea market across the river in Woodstock.’ hoteltivoli.org. Doubles from about £185

Tierra Atacama, Chile

‘This is on an old cattle route, and every room is filled with character. South American culture fascinates me: the people I met all had such huge hearts. We ventured out to see active volcanoes and hot springs, then stargazed at night – the sky is super clear. I’m lucky to have a husband who loves finding cool hotels, so I can’t take credit for all these!’ tierrahotels.com. Two nights from £1,010 per person
