With "Stay, Work, Play" as its slogan, you better believe The Domain Hotel and Spa in Bahrain is as chic an urban retreat as its motto implies.

But the vibrant hotel is its own attraction. Just step into the checkerboard-tiled16th-floor lobby to take in an incredible array of artwork, most painted by local and Saudi creatives. Every level, brasserie and corridor is conceptualized with art-deco elements, bold accents and designated design pieces that set each space apart.
