Journalism | | Dutch term or phrase: perfect afgeschermde hotelsuites | The full sentence reads "Hughes zou zijn meeste tijd in perfect afgeschermde hotelsuites doorbrengen en ondanks zijn rijkdom een volmaakt kluzenaarsbestaan leiden".
I am not sure how to translate 'perfect afgeschermede hotelsuites'. I am thinking along the lines of 'perfectly screened off hotel suites'?
Thanks all,
Naomi |

in this case, but 'hotel suites fully isolated from the outside world' might be better wording
A lot has already been written about Howard Hughes, who is a sort of cult figure in some circles in the US; the Wikipedia entry could be helpful for your translation. |
