Thanks to two young female artists, the trend is gaining momentum, catering to a generation of travellers looking to bed down in places where creativity and connection are nurtured.

In Marrakech, artist Lrnce is opening her colourful seven-bedroom riad, Rosemary, decked out in colourful hand-painted tiles, fabrics and a rooftop that will host community events for like-minded guests.

Later in the year, on the island of Mallorca, where – like Marrakech – creativity has always pulsated, contemporary photographer Kate Bellm will be opening her bolthole, Hotel Corazon. Known for her dreamy ethereal snapshots of island life, Bellm’s spot is in the village of Deià, with London chef about town Magnus Reid in charge of the health-focussed restaurant.
