Hotel of the week

Heckfield Place

An understated suite

Hampshire, England

Gerald Chan’s new English country getaway “almost defies labels,” said Christopher Muther in The Boston Globe. The Boston billionaire spared no expense during a 10-year renovation of Heckfield Place, a 1790 Georgian manor and estate. The house is “a vision of casual elegance,” with timber floors, patches of bare brick, and cool, muted colors on the lime-plaster walls. The room Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently slept in runs $12,500 a night, but rates start far lower, and all guests can enjoy the hotel’s nature walks, estate tours, and 67-seat theater.
