The ultimate Christmas gift for travel lovers is here

Mr-&-Mrs-Smith_-Get-A-Room!-Gift-Card-(3)

There can be nothing worse than worrying about what to buy your nearest and dearest for Christmas. Take the stress out of gift giving this year and while you're at it, maybe get one for yourself. You deserve it.

Sick of giving (and receiving) socks and jocks for Christmas? Have we found the gift for you…

Award-winning boutique-hotel booking service Mr & Mrs Smith have teamed up with British artist and illustrator Angelica Hicks to release this year’s must-have Christmas gift: the limited-edition Get a Room! gift card. The gift card is available in any amount, from £50 and upwards, and can be put towards a booking at any of the 1000 hotels in the Mr & Mrs Smith global collection.

Hicks, whose designs also adorned the Gucci summer t-shirt collection this year, has designed the gift card with her trademark wit and charm, featuring a hand-drawn hotel lobby scene.

“It was such an enjoyable open brief and a chance to have some fun with all things travel – who isn’t a hotel lover at heart?” says Hicks, “for anyone who gets a gift card in their stocking this year, I hope it gets them excited about their getaway.”

To further inspire art-lovers across the globe, Hicks has shared her hand-picked hotlist of the best creative escapes and, to tie in with the gift card, she has also produced a short animation using the same design.

“This year we wanted to collaborate with a global artist who would not only come up with something really unique for us but who also wholeheartedly understands what the Mr & Mrs Smith travel club is all about,” says James Lohan, co-founder and creative director of Mr & Mrs Smith.

“Angelica has created a fun, inventive and stylish gift card design full of Smith’s sense of mischief – and hers. Put one on your Christmas list.”
