2882 Best Hotels in USA

This boutique enterprise just north of Stowe village is a whimsically stylish alternative to the town's staid resorts. Modern furniture, white woolen rugs, and rough-hewn wooden beams add texture and dazzle the eye in the unique lobby, while in guest rooms, paper deer-head sculptures look down from gas hearths, subtle animal prints rest on beds, and nature-theme wallpaper calls out accent walls. The lodge's Après Only bar brings 1980s nostalgia to your post-ski plans, with vintage snowsuits as décor and roaring fireplaces.

This discreet Nomad hotel exudes Gilded Age decadence from the moment you enter its discreet lobby, set in a former 5th Avenue bank designed by lauded architects McKim, Mead & White in 1907, plus a sleek new tower next door. It’s a jewel box wrapped up in lavish European wallpapers and fabrics and infused with a signature house scent. Even the smallest rooms are large by NYC standards (starting at 300 square feet). All come with a \"maxi\" bar with full-size everything (the soft drinks and snacks are complimentary), sumptuous decor, and bespoke toiletries. A free breakfast is served daily in a sunlit, guest-only atrium, whipped up by celebrated chef Andrew Carmellini (of Locande Verde, Lafayette, and The Dutch fame), whose first namesake restaurant, the swish Café Carmellini downstairs, delivers Tuscan fare in a dazzling two-story space. The cozy, wood-paneled Portrait Bar tucked down a back hallway adds speakeasy vibes and a global drinks list.

Located on the bay side of U.S. 1 just north of the turnoff to downtown Belfast, this large and pleasant motel is a budget-friendly choice for families.

For groups, there are many different room options available, including two-bedroom suites that can accommodate up to nine people and include full kitchens.

If Don Draper from Mad Men popped into this 1950s motel-hotel hybrid 2¼ miles northeast of downtown Santa Rosa, he'd feel right at home. Guest rooms, all with refrigerators and coffeemakers, retain their high ceilings and that old-school flair. They're spread out in several fieldstone-clad buildings connected by glass-enclosed walkways encircling the Olympic-size outdoor pool. The suites and premium rooms, some with poolside patios, are spacious, and all the rooms have retro decor touches. From certain angles, the Flamingo exudes mid-century style, but although it has a large central pool, a spa, and a fitness center, the place feels more motor lodge than resort. One plus is the poolside Lazeaway Club restaurant and bar, with tropical-themed drinks and a party atmosphere. Sunday poolside brunch is a treat.

A tranquil, nicely landscaped inn with canyon views and a small pool, Flanigan's offers spacious, elegantly appointed accommodations, including two private villas and suites that sleep six; some units have a patio or a deck.

Fontana Village bustles during summertime with vacationing families here for activities like hiking, mountain biking, mini golf, disc golf, a small water park, and, of course, Fontana Dam. The resort's lodge is comfortable but shows its age. Some rental cabins around the resort are a bit newer, and all are an excellent value as a base camp to explore the nearby access points into the national park. 

The hotel property encompasses a conference center and 18 acres overlooking the southern end of Lake George. Rooms have been refurbished but retain a traditional look. Their configurations range from studios with sleeper sofas to huge suites with fireplaces; some have lake or mountain views. The large outdoor pool looks onto the lake.

A storybook place that's seen more than its share of cowboys, rustlers, gangsters, and oil barons, this hotel has been used in many a movie. If you're visiting the Stockyards, take a moment to walk through the 1907 hotel's richly appointed lobby (even if you're not a guest), sit a spell on comfy leather sofas and upholstered chairs, and watch folks walk down Exchange Avenue. There are four styles of rooms to choose from: Victorian, Native American, Mountain Man, and Western. In the Booger Red Saloon, the bar stools are saddles.

Directly across from the beach, the Four Points is also within easy walking distance to Biloxi's gaming district and popular attractions like Biloxi Lighthouse and Biloxi Shrimping Trip. A 100% nonsmoking hotel, it attracts guests who value in-room coffeemakers, free bottled water, and complimentary Wi-Fi. The 40-seat in-house restaurant, G. T.'s Gulfview Terrace and Wine Bar, recently racked up awards at Mississippi's "Chefs of the Coast" competition.

With a heart-of-the-party Bourbon Street location, the most coveted of the well-kept rooms here (especially during Mardi Gras) are the ones with balconies overlooking the street. Rooms are classic business style with some traditional flavor; those facing the courtyard and pool are quieter and a better choice for guests not prepared for 24-hour activity.

A high-rise by Juneau standards, the seven-story Four Points by Sheraton is one of the city's better lodgings, with decent, if somewhat overpriced, rooms. Fans of Northwest Coast art will appreciate the authentic Alaska Native carvings on display in the lobby, as well as the contemporary panels in the rooms. McGivney's Sports Bar & Grill, serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner and has a lounge area.

With a giant ball perched atop its 20-story round tower, this hotel on the north end of I-Drive is visible for blocks and has a contemporary atmosphere, thanks to the clean, airy design of the lobby. Some guest rooms have views of Universal Orlando.

With its understated boutiquelike charms, this Four Points offers a practical yet homey alternative to some of its larger neighbors in the Pennsylvania Convention Center area. A hardwood-floor foyer sets the tone, and an enormous work area featuring slide-out desks and flat-screen televisions is conducive to work and rest. Bathrooms with glass-enclosed showers—but no tubs—have a sharp modern feel, and there is ample closet space. A gym with brand-new exercise machines is open 24 hours. Cherry Lounge and Restaurant offers breakfast, dinner, and a daily happy hour.

Named after former owner Ben Goffstein's four daughters, the circa-1966 Four Queens is what Vegas regulars would consider an \"oldie but goodie,\" one of the most familiar casinos on Fremont Street. It also happens to be incredibly popular among Hawaiian visitors (largely because of the whole \"queen\" theme). Standard rooms were last remodeled back in 2008, so they're getting a bit stale. Still, for the price, the place is a reliable option. The main attraction at the \"Queens\" is Hugo's Cellar, an old-school steak house with a stellar wine list and carts on which servers make salads and flambé bananas Foster. The casino is pretty neat, too, featuring one of the world's largest slot machines, $3 blackjack, and dealers who look like they've been there forever. Here's a quirk: Four Queens guests have to use Binion's pool, which is down the block.

This landmark downtown hotel is a bit dated, but services and amenities are top-notch and it has a great location close to the convention center, Downtown businesses, and major sports facilities, including Minute Maid Park (home of the Astros) and Toyota Center (home of the NBA Rockets and the AHL Aeros).

The fitness center and pool area are awesome.

Extras include a lending library of Texas literature and an outstanding on-site restaurant, Ciclo, which attracts discerning locals in addition to guests. The hotel has an attractive outdoor saltwater pool, indoor pool, and whirlpool, as well as a fitness center and full spa.

This Public Garden--facing spot keeps a surprisingly low profile in Boston—and that's OK by the jeans-clad millionaires and assorted business types who cluster in the glossy lobby or use the courtesy car. Visiting celebs are whisked to the 2,590-square-foot, $13,000-per-night Royal Suites, while mere mortals find sheer happiness in lovely guest rooms boasting black-and-cream toile decor with gold and lemon accents, large bay windows, and oversize work areas.

A favorite of business travelers visiting Downtown's bustling Brickell Avenue, this plush sanctuary offers a respite from the nine-to-five mayhem—a soothing water wall greets you, the understated rooms impress you, and the seventh-floor, 2-acre-pool terrace relaxes you. Inside, a cavernous lobby houses larger-than-life sculptures commissioned by local and Latin American artists. All guest rooms and suites offer city or bay views and a window seating area to enjoy them. Although the pool oasis overlooks Downtown Miami and Biscayne Bay, it's still easy to forget you're in the middle of the city, especially when strolling through the foot-deep wading pool with 24 palm tree "islands" or napping in one of the suspended hammocks. Gym rats rejoice over the beautiful 50,000-square-foot Equinox sports club, complete with complimentary yoga and exercise classes (in fact 100 classes per week!) and plenty of eye candy. The hotel's indoor-outdoor restaurant, EDGE Steak & Bar, is a local dining and happy-hour hot spot for Miami's power players, movers, and shakers.

The Four Seasons signature style is on full display at this sleek glass tower overlooking Downtown and the Cumberland River, from luxurious linens and amenities in the spacious rooms to the infinity pool area that's like an urban oasis tucked away from the biggest crowds of Broadway. The lobby restaurant features rustic Italian cuisine, and the main bar is a great spot to meet fellow tourists along with residents of the luxe condominiums that occupy the uppermost floors of the building.

Though it opened in 1993, the soaring, dramatic ceilings and art deco--ish flourishes of the limestone lobby put this Four Seasons flagship more in league with some of the city's grande-dame hotels of yesteryear. Designed by famed architect I.M. Pei, the 52-floor, 682-foot-tall property is the second tallest hotel in the city. The 219 beige-clad guest rooms are more spacious than your typical New York hotel room and expect to be wowed by stunning city views.

The staff here will make you feel pampered, as will the plush guest rooms, which have flat-screen TVs, soft robes and slippers, and French doors leading to balconies. For a relaxing meal or a healthy smoothie, you can dine poolside on the tropically landscaped terrace. Massages here are among the best, and the nail salon lures the rich and famous. For high-end modern Italian, dine at Culina, the sleek indoor/outdoor eatery.

A favorite among celebrities, executives, and diplomats, the Four Seasons is one of the District's most sought-after luxury hotels. It offers upscale, ultramodern rooms outfitted in calming neutrals, plush beds, and French limestone or marble baths with separate showers and sunken tubs. A 4,600-piece original art collection graces the walls, including works by Fernando Botero, Helen Frankenthaler, and Andy Warhol. The restaurant, Bourbon Steak, is a favorite of sophisticated diners, and Seasons is the power-breakfast spot in D.C. The sophisticated spa here is one of the best in town.

This superluxurious property by the Four Seasons is a posh haven near the World Trade Center, with a modern residential-inspired design, a 75-foot indoor pool, an indulgent spa, and CUT restaurant by celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck.

Wrought-iron railings, crown moldings, and decorative plasterwork speak of the elegance of 1924, when the Francis Marion was the largest hotel in the Carolinas. Still the tallest downtown hotel, it's a National Historic Trust property. In the handsome guest rooms—many of which overlook Marion Square—bountiful throw pillows and billowy curtains add flair. For the best views and the most serenity, ask for an upper-floor room facing King Street. Flavorful Lowcountry cuisine is served at the Swamp Fox restaurant, and a Starbucks is on the ground floor.
