5203 Best Hotels in USA

Sleek art deco curves on its exterior and in the hotel lobby, along with photos, survive here as the remaining pieces of the grand Warner Theatre, which filled the space where this comfortable, practical modern hotel was added on in 2012 in the heart of downtown West Chester. The good-size, traditionally furnished rooms (dark wood, carpeting, curtains with a valance, nice mattress) have fairly spacious bathrooms, and amenities include a mini-refrigerator and coffeemaker. What rooms and public areas like the breakfast room and the bar, and even the outdoor terraces, lack in style, they make up by providing convenience and in being fairly new and nicely kept. The hotel's standout feature, though, is its location, with boutiques, coffee shops, bars, and restaurants close at hand.   

Works by regional artists adorn the hallways of this three-story, downtown historic district boutique property, where the first-floor public areas include a lobby that invites lingering; a spa; and Carboni's, an Italian restaurant, bar, and grab-and-go market. When it's open, the rooftop is a great place to enjoy town and mountain views while sipping a beverage. The spacious (320–750 square feet, 10-foot ceilings) accommodations are done in shades of gray and warm browns and furnished with deluxe beds, high-thread-count sheets, refrigerators, coffeemakers, and 4G HDTVs. All the well-lit bathrooms are equipped with rain-forest showers; a few also have claw-foot soaking tubs.

This downtown 1893 hotel on the National Register of Historic Places is well-maintained by its proud owners, who have decorated each room differently, always maintaining the hotel's original simple Victorian charm. Note that all guest rooms are on the second and third floors, and there is no elevator. Also, some of the rooms are small, though the prices shrink with the sizes of the rooms. The fine restaurant ($$), bar, and lounge also have Victorian furnishings, including dark-green wallpaper, antique oak tables, crystal chandeliers, and lacy drapes. Prime rib and steaks are the specialties, and seafood and lamb are also on the menu. Dinner reservations are strongly recommended.

One of the best-maintained and lowest-priced motels in the Yakima Valley, this modernly revamped mid-century motor lodge stands out for its simple but cheerful rooms, some with wet bars. A surprisingly good continental breakfast is included in the rates, and there's an outdoor pool. 

The landscaped setting, resortlike pool area, and exclusive yet casual ambience of the Hotel Yountville attract travelers wanting to get away from it all yet still be close—but not too close—to fine dining and tasting rooms. The 14 stone-clad buildings here house clusters of chic rooms and suites painted in beige and brown shades with the occasional yellow or other accents. All rooms have large spa tubs, fieldstone fireplaces, and four-poster beds decked out in Italian linens. Given all the stonework, it shouldn't surprise that one of the treatments at the on-site spa involves heated stones; massages, body therapies, facials, and other skin-care regimens are also offered.

Located across the street from Wrigley Field, this boutique hotel is a home run on all accounts, from the Cubs-centric design to the buzzing cocktail bar to the rooms with private balconies that overlook all the action at nearby Gallagher Way.

Dining options include an upscale tavern, a Mediterranean-inspired lounge, and an outpost of Chicago's legendary taco spot, Big Star.

Decorated with local artwork, contemporary furnishings, and wood-and-marble accents, this boutique property is both upscale and accessible, and offers a location convenient to the Southwest Park Blocks and Portland State University.

An excellent choice for a romantic getaway, this relative newcomer offers modern rooms with a flamenco twist—you may think you've been swept away to a luxurious Spanish villa.

Furnishings in both the rooms and common areas have a clean Mediterranean feel, but painted flamenco dancers adorn the wall throughout. Amenities include a fitness center and a chic poolside lounge. The restaurant, Castile, is also a big draw here.

This chic downtown destination sets the scene for being seen with its vibrant decor, au courant outdoor lounges, and a coveted rooftop pool that attracts hip, beautiful crowds of travelers and locals alike.

Room amenities include smart TVs, a Bluetooth docking station, pillow-top beds with tufted leather headboards, and a quirky central photograph made of floppy disks.

Their mission is to free the music within you. The fourth floor has a groovy lounge for game of pool and a small conference room.

A little removed from the heart of the wharf area craziness, this smart-looking boutique hotel with guest-room interiors inspired by luxury Mediterranean yachts aims for subtle contemporary elegance in the form of lightly stained woods and soft-brown and golden fabrics and walls. The rooms facing the courtyard are quieter than street-side ones but lack bay views. The on-site Italian restaurant Pescatore serves family-friendly breakfast and dinner, and the daily s'mores offered by the hotel are arguably the most popular amenity.
