Rooms vary in size, but all are stylish, updated, and have flat-screen TVs. Take a sunrise yoga class, walk the surfboard-lined pathway to the beach, or maybe catch the Saturday night "dive-in" movie at the rooftop pool. Hawaiian Aroma Caffe, which is popular with Instagrammers, serves up coffee and quick bites just off the main lobby. The popular and lively Maui Brewing Company restaurant offers casual food, local beers, and two happy hours daily.

It looks like a typical one-story motel, but the Outside Inn offers a variety of accommodations inspired by nature or activities in nature. Each room is unique; ask about kitchenettes, full kitchens, suites, patios, or the stand-alone cabin off-property. One room honors the town's Nevada Classic, the nation's second-oldest bike race, once won by Greg Lemond. Others pay tribute to wildflowers, river rafting, and fishing. There's a climbing wall in the rock-climbing suite. Enjoy homespun hospitality with plenty of inspiration to get you out of the room and into nature.

Unrivaled for its downtown views and close proximity to Bend's restaurants, this jazz-inspired boutique property sets the rhythm for urban lodging in Bend, with in-room vinyl record players and loaner acoustic guitars. From fall through winter, a popular monthly concert series welcomes notable musicians for intimate performances in the 10 Below lounge.

Overlooking Dyes Inlet, this contemporary five-story hotel in suburban Silverdale has spacious suites with nautical designs, some with balconies facing the water, and plenty of thoughtful extras, including a full breakfast.

The former Hooters Casino Hotel has become a part of a fast-growing Indian chain, though things look much the same—there is still even a Hooters Restaurant inside. You'll also find what's touted as the largest Steak 'n Shake burger outlet in the country. And of course, it has a  great location across the street from the MGM Grand (just east of and facing its parking garage), though one that's a little more lonesome thanks to the demolition of the Tropicana next door. 

Stocked with a plethora of adventure gear (for sale) such as snorkels, coolers, and sunscreen along with drinks and snacks in each room's "macro" bar, Kona's newest hip boutique hotel caters to the younger, more adventurous traveler. Rooms are decorated with photography by local artists, and guests can expect ultra-premium linens and towels. The location in the heart of town assures shops, restaurants, bars, and cafés are an easy stroll away, not to mention the beach and pier.  

It may not look like much from the outside, but one of the only motels for 50 miles in either direction is a comfortable and clean budget choice and a handy base for exploring Olympic National Park, with spacious rooms with modern furnishings and framed landscape photos. A couple of accommodations do stand out, however: a kitschy Twilight-themed room with framed movie posters and a red-and-black color scheme, and one larger suite with a full kitchen and separate living room.

This resort offers a little something for everyone: from comfy, clean, economical rooms in the original renovated 1950s hotel to modern two-story condos with expansive ocean views, king-size beds, full kitchens, and outdoor patios. Whatever your choice, expect top-notch service from the professional and friendly staff. Amenities include a shared hot tub, koi pond, and complimentary breakfast at the resort restaurant, the Chowder House.

Travelers love this terrific beachfront hotel and the ocean views from most rooms as well as the pool; it's a perfect place for watching sunsets over the Pacific.

The lodge at a nearby sister property, the Glacier Homestead, can accommodate up to 26 people; it also has two cabins and a simple bunkhouse that is very inexpensive to book. This property was formally called Glacier Outdoor Center. 

Although it's set along Hana Highway, this chic inn with oceanfront accommodations and Southeast Asian influences is surprisingly quiet. All rooms have air-conditioning, flat-screen televisions, mini-refrigerators, bathrooms with travertine tile and spa-quality Malie Organics products, and regular housekeeping. The on-site VANA restaurant has one of the most impressive sushi menus on the island.

On a quiet side street on the fringe of Albuquerque’s Sawmill-Wells Park districts, a particular personality is revealed in this low-slung historic adobe: while it decidedly favors fans of the ever-growing craft brew scene, it also offers comfortably appointed suites that have been thoughtfully modernized from their original early 1900s construction. A balanced mix of restoration (the haint blue paint and wooden bead-board ceilings are true to their era) and upgrade (kitchens and bathrooms—aside from the recreation of period penny-tile flooring—are pure 21st century) is complemented by vintage prints and photographs and modern furnishings, with some pieces more successful than others. Inspired by its one-time life as a saloon and dance hall with a “wine room in connection” (or, in period code, brothel), Painted Lady owes its name to the building’s checkered history. Today, the closest connection to the past is the brew aspect of the operation: a daily 55-minute “hoppy hour” brings guests a local beer of choice, to be enjoyed in the pleasant garden’s nooklike seating areas or in the refurbished mid-20th-century trolley that sits near the entrance.

Funky artwork fills the guest rooms and public spaces of this inn above a popular eatery. A slightly disheveled East Village flavor prevails here.

In a former bordello that retains its 19th-century grandeur, this reasonably priced inn has light-filled rooms—many named for the women who used to work here—that feature 14-foot ceilings, towering windows, and elegant period furnishings like hand-carved dressers, wrought-iron bed frames, and big claw-foot bathtubs. A corner suite retains its original fireplace and a fainting couch. Grand sitting areas anchor all three levels, and the mezzanine has a balcony overlooking the entryway and a circular ceiling mural.

This grand two-story building was built in 1882 as a bank, but it was reinvented as a hotel in 1900. News accounts at the time touted the Palace as a first-class lodging with the intimacy of a small European hotel. The New Mexico Historical Preservation Office helped to restore and reopen the hotel in 1990, keeping much of the historical detail intact. Some rooms have Western-style furnishings, others have neo-Victorian decor such as ruffled pillow coverings and bed skirts. The upstairs room is a peaceful spot for playing board games or reading.

This is where the whole \"locals casinos\" trend began, when a one-time Bingo Palace evolved into Palace Station, now with fully remodeled rooms that, while modern, are still pretty basic and not large. But good luck finding any vestiges of the 1970s and '80s original beyond the basic footprint and The Oyster Bar, a sentimental favorite. Most of the interior has been remodeled to keep Palace Station in line with the newer, more upscale sister properties that the Station Casinos brand has grown into. The original motel rooms were razed to become a casino expansion, which included a new pool area with cabanas. A corner of the property was expanded for two spacious new restaurants and, above them, a nine-screen movie theater with a \"wine and dine while you watch\" concept. Palace now has a balance of casino-operated restaurants (The Brass Fork coffee shop and Charcoal Room steakhouse) and leased-out spaces, including new branches of two local favorites: Lindo Michoacan for Mexican food, and China Mama, which took over the bright, airy space originally given to The Boathouse Asian Eatery. It's next door to Tailgate Social, where the sports bar–themed atmosphere and menu come with sunlight and windows uncommon to a casino. One thing that hasn't changed is the easy access of the sports book just inside the west entry, making it easy to participate in the company's famous football contest.

Tile hearths, French doors, and traditional viga ceilings grace this luxury boutique hotel whose rooms stand out from the pack for their clean, uncluttered looks, posh linens, and decor inspired by female artists of local acclaim, from modernist Agnes Martin to transplanted British aristocrat Dorothy Brett. The grand 1912 structure is set behind thick walls and located a 10-minute walk from the plaza. Each room has a private entrance and fireplace, marble bath, flat-screen TV, and plush robes. All rooms overlook the gardens, and perks include made-to-order breakfasts (which you can enjoy in the warmly furnished living room or have delivered to your room) and French press coffee on request. Guests can also access the spa and other deluxe amenities at the nearby sister property, El Monte Sagrado.

Creative clients flock to one of the only boutique hotels on Melrose Avenue, with an English-countryside feel and a breezy cafe. Rustic, homey rooms have balconies looking down on Melrose and tablets if you need to get in touch with the front desk. There are no phones or alarm clocks here, unless you request them. Fans of Melrose's unique shopping scene will love the hotel's locale which is in walking distance to most stores and restaurants on the fashion-forward street.

Originally built in 1912, the former St. James Hotel was fully redesigned in 2023 and now features a nautically inspired elegance that nods to the building's history. The vibrant rooftop lounge features gorgeous views of the Gaslamp District, San Diego Bay, and the Coronado Bridge, and offers full bar service and light bites when open between March and November. The all-day eatery, Saint James French Diner, combines the feel of a classic American diner with the subtlety of a French bistro and offers room service for dinner only. Due to the age of the building, some of the rooms feel a bit small with some odd layouts (like a vanity in the sitting area), but each one is beautifully designed with Bellino linens on comfortable beds. Wi-Fi is free, as is the Nespresso machine in each room, and dogs and service animals are welcome for $100 for the entire stay. Nevertheless, the fee can be waived with proof of documentation for service animals. Leave the kids at home—this hotel is meant more for business travelers and design-savvy visitors.

Situated at the foot of the Stockton Tunnel, this beautiful property is now under the careful, hip eye of the Palisociety boutique hotel group, but its strong suits continue to be food and drink, a prime location, and a modern-meets-vintage aesthetic. Patrons enter the small lobby before ascending in a caged elevator to guest rooms and suites or going up a set of stairs to the second floor, where Fisher Loft serves complimentary coffee and pastries mornings. Rooms have exposed white-brick walls that contrast with the chic furnishings (small, café-style round tables in most rooms) and high-end touches like rainfall showerheads and Nespresso machines.

Tucked in a posh residential area three blocks from the sea and lively Third Street Promenade, Palihouse Santa Monica caters to design-minded world travelers, with spacious rooms and suites decked out in whimsical antiques.

Step into the low-lit lobby, which also plays host to the hotel's guest-only all-day eating establishment, to be greeted by mismatched antiques highlighted with trophies, terrariums, and kitschy paintings. Rooms feel as though you just stepped into a quirky globetrotter's pied-à-terre, with locally made wallpaper prints, hand-carved vintage tables, and sets of faux antlers guarding the beds. Bathrooms hit all the high notes, including Diptyque toiletries. Modern amenities like flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi appeal to tech-minded travelers, while the fitness center and the fully equipped kitchens in most rooms cater to extended-stay visitors.

Part of the ever-growing Palisociety lifestyle-hotel brand, Palihouse West Hollywood is the latest addition and a much-needed hotel in the lodging-bare stretch of West 3rd Street.

Rooms are modest in size and all feature kitchenettes with microwaves and Smeg iceboxes. Off the lobby is a lovely all-day dining café and plant-filled patio. Order from an array of California cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Up on the second floor, the heated pool is used as a relaxing escape from the traffic outside. They offer complimentary lemonade and candy bars in the pool lounge. The hotel's location might be its biggest asset as it sits in next to Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and Mid-Wilshire, making it very easy to jet around town to major sites and attractions.

This cheerfully restored, eco-friendly, midcentury-modern complex has a hip, quirky vibe and offers the convenience of a downtown location with relatively moderate prices. Vaulted ceilings, glass showers, private porches, fireplaces, and breakfast nooks are among the features in the individually decorated cottages, some of which have two bedrooms, and the centrally landscaped pool with fire pit is a fun place to relax and mingle. The owners also run the funky and historic Columbia Hotel, a few blocks away.

Travelers with a desire for the cosmopolitan but requiring the square footage and comforts of home revel in these one- and two-bedroom suites with spacious, marble-tiled, granite-topped kitchens.

All the suites have fully stocked kitchens, in-room washer and dryer, and the finest amenities right down to the super-plush bedding and huge showers. The beach, one of the widest in the Greater Palm Beach area, offers water sports and has a little reef not even 50 feet from the shoreline that children will enjoy exploring—plus a fantastic waterslide pool, Kids Club, and many structured activities like movie nights, Ping-Pong games, and T-shirt decorating. Low-key, yet with all the modern comforts, the resort draws both baseball players and fans, who make this their home base for spring training, which is just 20 minutes north in Jupiter.

The epitome of a grande dame, this massive property in the center of the Loop recently underwent a $215-million renovation, but the lobby—with its wow-worthy ceiling mural and lots of gold, marble, and tapestry—preserves the original splendor.

This is the longest continually operating hotel in the United States; it's also the place where brownies were invented in 1893, thanks to socialite Bertha Palmer. The Palmer House celebrates its history along with its more modern attributes, among them a 10,000-square-foot fitness center and spa.
