One of the most appealing mountain lodges in Georgia is part of the state park system and features panoramic views over the mountains from the massive glass-windowed lobby and on-site restaurant. All rooms, in fact, have mountain views except for three that overlook the woods. If you want even more privacy or something a bit more rustic, try a cabin or campsite. Some are even pet-friendly. The park's visitor center can help you arrange all sorts of activities within the park including archery, zip lining, GPS scavenger hunts, and guided hikes. 

This unique property—two buildings, one for families with children and one for adults only—offers exactly what its name promises: views overlooking Amish farmland as far as the eye can see. In addition to standard rooms, there are family-friendly two-bedroom suites that can accommodate up to six guests. Hotel amenities run the gamut from a complimentary full breakfast to an arcade. On the property, guests can board a buggy or van tour, go to the Amish Experience Theater, and eat barbecue.

Most rooms at this small motel on the north end of Hyannis Harbor have harbor views and small balconies overlooking the water; its simple street-side appearance belies its spacious and immaculate accommodations, extensive grounds, and nice touches like afternoon treats and complimentary use of bicycles. An outdoor pool and firepits overlooking the harbor make this a pleasant base for exploring the Cape, and the Lewis Bay location can't be beat. In season, they offer a buffet breakfast (fee); off-season, they provide a complimentary continental breakfast.

The name of this Hyatt brand means "personal style" in Hindi, and the serene and spacious modern rooms evoke that coveted New York loft feel, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking 5th Avenue and the New York Public Library. Elevator bays on each floor feature artwork from local high school students, while the robust artists-in-residence program showcases works by emerging local artists. The minimalist, contemporary guest rooms come with king beds, marble bathrooms with porcelain foot baths and walk-in rain showers, closets made of glass to display shopping purchases, and notable freebies—Wi-Fi, snacks, and nonalcoholic drinks. A significant portion of the rooms are suites, which offer guests upgrades that include private balconies or landscaped terraces. Wellness Suites have freestanding bathtubs, weights, yoga mats, the Mirror virtual fitness service, and healthier snacks. The Bar Downstairs and Kitchen is a candlelit, wood-filled space ideal for a classic cocktail and farm-to-table dishes. 

Ideal for travelers seeking design pizzazz, a see-and-be-seen atmosphere, and first-class amenities, this five-story downtown Napa property fuses New York City chic and Las Vegas glamour. Ultracontemporary rooms with Nespresso coffeemakers, wine refrigerators, and appropriate (and appropriately located) electronics docking stations come in several categories, from 285-square-foot Classic Kings to 780-square-foot Archer's Den suites with balconies and fireplaces. All rooms have beds draped in 100%-cotton linens and topped with down duvets and down pillows. There are also work desks, safes, and flat-screen TVs with premium channels. Small refrigerators are stocked with refreshments; there's a fee for them, but it's reasonable. The look overall is clean and sophisticated, with local art adorning the rooms and the hallways. Some of the best views are from upper-floor rooms facing south and west, though the southern ones pick up a little street noise on the balconies.

By day, sip cocktails at the indoor–outdoor bar (which doubles as the reception desk), lounge in the pool while a live DJ spins nearby, or browse the trendy gift shop while slurping scoops of Coachella Valley Date from the in-store ice cream counter; at night, relax in the pool-sized hot tub, socialize around communal firepits (half of the rooms also have private patios and fireplaces), play drag-queen bingo (every other Thursday), or cozy up in your king-size bed amid tasteful urbane furnishings and boldly patterned wallpaper.

The rooms at this downtown newcomer—built within three retrofitted historic buildings, including a former convent and a dye factory—appear lifted from a design magazine. Pink tile, gold fixtures, marble tables, wooden king-sized beds, and muted paint colors work toward a cohesive whole. Communal spaces are all outdoors (apart from the popular restaurant that draws weekend crowds), including several fire pits and fireplaces, plus a small lawn with cornhole boards.

Each floor of rooms in this nine-story building is dedicated to a different artist, with original art in every room by the artist, as well—you can't miss the entry-level greeting Wall Drawing #397 by Sol LeWitt or the video art in the elevators that signal this is going to be a unique lodging experience. The eclectic rooms feature vividly colored pillows, furniture in fanciful yet quite comfortable shapes, and welcome touches such as white marble bathrooms, espresso machines, expandable workstations, and very soft bathrobes. The hotel sits next to the Denver Art Museum—the museum’s curator of 30 years was also responsible for assembling the $100 million in pieces at ART, almost all of which can be viewed simply by asking a staff member to escort you—and is within walking distance of many other art museums as well as across the street from the History Colorado Center. Let's not forget the incredible views from the upper-floor rooms and the restaurant and lounge. The window-surrounded, fourth-floor restaurant, Fire, serves modern American cuisine and offers an art-heavy, stylish, and inviting atmosphere, with the one-story-high, Mylar-based Light Knots by Larry Bell as its centerpiece. The floor-to-ceiling glass walls between the lobby and outdoor lounge area operate like sliding doors and are left open on temperate evenings, and the firepit, also a work of art, surrounds comfortable seating that leads to private, covered seating elsewhere on the patio overlooking Broadway.

A charming but modern boutique hotel for visitors looking to experience living on the Upper West Side, this century-old building welcomes you home with a lobby bar that transitions from a lively café during the day to a lively speakeasy-style bar by night. It has a comfortable living room feel with contemporary artwork and an original antique fireplace, a vintage 1920s French elevator, and a bakery and tempting restaurants that are popular with locals. Compact but bright rooms have wood floors, exposed brick, and tall windows with views of Manhattan's iconic water towers are streamlined and cozy. Some rooms have have Juliet balconies or huge furnished terraces. There's live music six days a week in the lobby, and the seasonal rooftop on the 16th floor features a variety of pop-ups throughout the year.

Hoteliers Doug and Becky Neuman (who also run the excellent Ashland Springs Hotel and Lithia Springs Resort) have transformed this '70s-era resort into a stylish yet affordable retro-cool compound, retaining the property's fabulous globe lights, soaring lobby windows, and beam ceilings while adding many period-style furnishings. Standard rooms and spacious suites are set in two separate buildings, and its 14 acres include two tennis courts, a pool, a hot tub, fitness rooms, and a restaurant, Luna Cafe, that turns out reasonably priced, farm-to-table pizzas, sandwiches, and other light fare (there's also a market selling gourmet picnic supplies and local beer and wine). In a part of Oregon abundant with cookie-cutter chain properties, this is a refreshingly distinct and fun alternative for value-seeking travelers.

This small boutique hotel and its eponymous gourmet restaurant occupy two renovated early-20th-century Downtown buildings. Luxe Italian Frette linens and plush duvets dress the beds; coffee is delivered to each room every morning, and cookies are left during turn-down service. The Ashton is only one block from Sundance Square entertainment and restaurants, two blocks from the stunning Bass Performance Hall, and seven minutes' drive from Fort Worth's Museum District.

Dramatically perched above serene Northeast Harbor, this vestige of the Gilded Age has played host to the likes of Astors, Vanderbilts, and Rockefellers since it was built in 1883. Destroyed by fire in 1899, the original inn was rebuilt in 1901, and a $28 million makeover, completed in the summer of 2025, not only restored the property to its former historic elegance, some might say it arguably surpassed it. The rooms, 17 spa suites, and 15 cottages are designed to mimic the surrounding coast and woods, in hues both deep and light, from bark and moss to pale pinks. The restaurant, Dahlia’s, has a dedicated following. As for the spectacular gardens that spill around the grounds and pool—filled with statues, lush hydrangeas, and pollinators galore—they're reason enough to warrant a stay.

Opened in 2019 by veterans of the local fishing industry, this dapper boutique hotel with roomy, thoughtfully designed accommodations overlooks Ilwaco's scenic marina and Baker Bay and abounds with welcoming features, from complimentary wine and beer at check-in to cruiser bikes to in-room Amazon Alexa entertainment stations.

Most of the oak and maple furnishings in the freshly renovated guest rooms are original to the building, and in the evenings, Adirondack chairs on the lawn are all turned toward the dazzling show put on by the setting sun.

The smallest rooms at this colorful, aquatic-theme, high-rise hotel start at 375 square feet, with the penthouses more than quadruple that size. All the rooms come with complimentary Wi-Fi, high-definition TVs, sufficient tech ports, and small refrigerators. The Atlantis Steakhouse and Sky Terrace Sushi & Oyster Bar rank among Reno's top restaurants; head to Bistro Napa for modern California cuisine. 

What used to be a fading 1938 motor court is now a revamped, quintessentially Austin motel that sits pretty in the heart of South Congress’s stretch of trendy restaurants and shops. It's a favorite with hipsters, artists, and LBGTQ+-friendly folk, who hang by the kidney-shape pool, where live music and special dance and aerobic classes are hosted regularly. Funky, throwback rooms are expertly outfitted with retro decor and kitschy accoutrements, like the signature Bunkhouse kimono robes in every bathroom. The staff, made up of laid-back locals, aims to please.

Green, pet-friendly, and equipped with high-speed fiber-optic Wi-Fi, the tech-oriented Axiom nimbly provides a boutique experience business and leisure travelers applaud. Just steps from the Powell Street cable-car turnaround, the hotel offers service that’s polite, intuitive, and efficient. The public spaces, including a check-in area filled with California-themed books, evoke the past while projecting an au courant vibe. Many rooms are old-school small but make sensible use of the available space.

It's easy to fall in love with this new-in-2022, adults-only Acme Hospitality property in a restored mid-century jewel of an apartment complex—we're talking sun-dappled breezeways, clerestory windows, carved doors, a low-slung roof, and a full-wall white-brick fireplace fronted by a shag rug in the lobby living room. Your stay starts with a warm hello, a boozy welcome drink, and the first opportunity to decompress amid the hushed peace that can only be found at 21-and-over accommodations. The recuperation will continue in your spacious room, which will likely have a kitchenette and a patio hammock and will definitely be swathed in soothing organic tones and have gorgeous tile, custom millwork, and a bed built for deep sleep. Complete the relaxation process by meditating poolside or next to one of the longest (and best) firepits in town.

The handsome rooms at this warm and inviting downtown hotel come with atmospheric furnishings—some have gas fireplaces and jetted tubs—and the price includes an ample complimentary breakfast of waffles, biscuits and gravy, ham and potatoes, and more. Original artwork and antiques add to the old-world atmosphere throughout the property.

Tasteful and modern decor adorns the rooms at this stately inn set directly on Taylor Creek, where the whinnies of wild horses at the Rachel Carson Reserve can be heard from your private balcony. Chandeliers in bathrooms, electric blinds, and leather headboards convey nautical-imbued luxury. There's an outdoor pool and hot tub, a sizeable gym, and a first-rate restaurant, 34° North, that draws locals for dinner and drinks as the sun sets over the water. Dinner reservations are essential on weekends, even for guests. Opt for the $15 valet parking—self-parking is free, but it's several hundred yards away.

No detail has been overlooked at this beautifully restored 1886 hotel, a gold-rush-era landmark that has hosted such VIPs as Theodore Roosevelt and Oprah Winfrey. Big-screen TVs, deep soaking tubs, and a small in-house spa are among the thoroughly modern features that make this such a relaxing place to stay. Other luxurious touches include stained-glass chandeliers, papered ceilings, and lovely antiques. Some suites come with kitchenettes and separate sitting areas.

This inn, part of the 52-acre Beeches estate, is the best place to stay in town. Rooms, dressed in French-country style with floral patterns, have a king bed or one or two queen-size beds; bathrooms have marble trim. The suite has a sitting area and a whirlpool tub. The restaurants alone are worth the trip.

After sitting abandoned for years, a historic, late-19th-century office building was transformed into a chic hotel that channels old New York, home to the gorgeous lobby's Bar Room and atmospheric Temple Court restaurant, by award-winning chef Tom Colicchio; and Le Gratin, helmed by chef Daniel Boulud. The original nine-story atrium with ornate balustrades soars above the lobby, providing a dramatic photo op for guests. Operated as a Thompson Hotel (part of Hyatt), rooms and suites feature beds with leather headboards, oak floors, and whimsical touches like beaded lamps. This place draws a sophisticated downtown crowd and is especially popular with magazine editors who work nearby.

This carefully restored, 1910 railroad hotel was the first of the iconic lodges built by the Great Northern Railroad and sits directly across the road from the historic West Glacier Railroad Station, making it particularly convenient for guests arriving by rail. The lodge is conveniently located just outside the West Glacier park entrance in what was once the park's winter headquarters. Rooms are cozy and bright with period furnishings and original woodwork. Some rooms open up to a private deck area with lovely views. The Lewis and Clark Cottages, which remain open in winter, are snug up against the evergreen forest behind the lodge. If train noise will bother you, ask for a room at the back of the hotel. 

The glossy, handsome hotel which sits across the Intracoastal Waterway and is a block from Clematis Street radiates swagger, and, this being an Autograph Collection hotel, has numerous posh perks. Named in honor of Byrd and Fred Dewey’s original Palm Beach County estate named Ben Trovato, the hotel blends vintage good looks with contemporary comforts; its lobby is outfitted in oriental rugs, wicker swing chairs, leather-tufted sofas, and soaring bookcases. Amenities include a 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness center, custom-designed bicycles for guests, morning yoga, pet-friendly policies, and a rooftop pool with private cabanas and an outdoor firepit. There's even a "Book Butler Program," a curated in-room menu of exciting reads honoring the hotel’s muse, Byrd Dewey. The roof boasts the first and only rooftop waterfront drinking and dining outlet in downtown West Palm Beach. The dapperness extends to the rooms, with headboards swathed in toffee-color leather, Turkish linens, 55" smart TVs, Nespresso coffeemakers, and La Bottega bath products. Suites feature balconies and soaking tubs or glass showers overlooking the Palm Harbor Marina. Both dining outlets---Proper Grit, on the ground floor and Spruzzo, on the rooftop---are uniformly excellent, though they tend to get crowded on the weekends.

Located in Hot Springs State Park on the banks of the Big Horn River and by far the best hotel in town, this handsomely restored 1918 hotel has spacious rooms with attractive Western log-cabin-style furnishings, and suites have fireplaces. Guests can take a dip in the seasonal courtyard pool or soak in the private hot tub, fed directly from geothermal mineral springs. The hotel is a short walk from several other hot springs pools inside the park.

After a massive expansion, the original Betsy Ross Hotel (christened the "Colonial" wing) has been joined with what was the neighboring, historic Carlton Hotel to create a retro-chic, art deco treasure that delivers the full-throttle South Beach experience with style, pizzazz, and a big-time cultural bonus: year-round programs include poetry readings, live jazz, and art shows. The front porch and outdoor eating space along Ocean Drive are perfect for quintessential SoBe people-watching. The lobby, which remains in the original Colonial wing, is busy, but not insanely so, and cultivates a social, trendy scene, especially in the evenings. The guest rooms of The Betsy 2.0 embody a color palette of white and ocean-blue tones with pops of green. Enjoy time at the rooftop pool deck, and consider dining at the hotel's excellent surf-and-turf restaurant by chef Laurent Tourondel, LT Steak & Seafood.

This downtown brick inn with an inviting garden seating area in back and a cheerful wine bar–coffeehouse on the ground floor provides a pleasing balance of 19th-century charm and 21st-century updates, and most of the one- and two-bedroom suites have garden, mountain, or water views, as well as fireplaces and kitchenettes. The Bishop Block Bottle Shop café specializes in organic wines and serves creative tapas as well as beer, cider, and cocktails, too. A additional full-service restaurant is planned by mid-2023.

Unassuming from the outside, Blackstone has such a creative personality that visitors need simply turn the corner into the colorful midcentury-style courtyard—which echoes Blackstone's origins at a 1930s motor court—to be won over. With just the right dose of quirkiness, the very well-appointed accommodations reveal the owners' good humor: a tasteful assortment of Jetsons, Lucille Ball, and Twilight Zone memorabilia adorn the themed rooms. Each has its own private soaking tub for unlimited indulgence in the healing waters, and a kitchenette (no stove). The lush wet room ($25 per hour)—with plants, waterfalls, a shower, and hot pool—transports you somewhere far away from this desert locale. Two huge private tubs are available for $5 per half hour. The in-house coffee is a custom blend and it's fantastic. The staff is helpful and can offer savvy tips on local dining and sightseeing.

Here it is: the retro motor court of your dreams. Built in 1939, the glowing neon, the tidy grounds, the spotlessly clean rooms furnished with vintage and antique furniture, and the abundant charm of Bill and Terri, the proprietors, all come together in one neat, feel-good package. The Blue Swallow is a landmark and a genuine pleasure for an overnight. The rooms are not the supersize, supermodern ones you get at the chains down the road, but that just isn't what this place is all about. Arrive before sunset if you can and take a seat at a table on the front lawn; the views of the Western sky exploding with color are not to be missed. There is a feeling of camaraderie among the guests here—many of whom are diligently following Route 66 in its entirety—that lends a real sweetness to an already unique experience.
