This small inn is the ultimate in luxury, with top-shelf amenities like Mascioni linens and robes, and Molton Brown toiletries. There are 18 uniquely appointed rooms and suites situated on 100 acres, offering spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Many of the rooms are named to reflect the property's ties to the Jefferson family. About 350 acres passed to Thomas Jefferson's daughter and her husband, Thomas Mann Randolph, who established their home, Edgehill, on the property. The foundations of the main building are thought to be the original foundations of one of Mann's warehouses. The Inn is also known for its excellent restaurant.

A full breakfast is included.

Hoping to capture the look and feel of an old Scotch-and-cigar parlor, Philadelphia's Club Quarters, sometimes branded as \"CQ Hotel,\" has a little more style than the typical business-minded lodge.

While options for overnight stays in Jamestown are limited, the Bay Voyage is a stalwart that has undergone several evolutions in its lodging and dining but retains the charm that led the original owners to float this Victorian-era inn across Narragansett Bay from Newport in 1890. The inn is walking distance from town and features rooms with water views, an attractive seasonal outdoor swimming pool, and an on-site restaurant. It’s a time-share resort that also offers rooms for overnight stays, so most accommodations are suites.

In the heart of Downtown, this 20-story high-rise comprises a pair of desert-color towers that figure prominently in the city's skyline. The lobby and on-site restaurant strike a quietly reverential note, pointing to Clyde and Carrie Tingley, major players in the local and state political scene (he was a very popular two-term governor in the 1930s), in tastefully subtle ways throughout. The rooms remain a bit heavy on the beige, but a touch of Southwestern style is combined with all the amenities you'd expect of a high-caliber business-oriented hotel, including plush pillow-top mattresses and fluffy bathrobes. Carrie's offers breakfast and lunch in a spacious, light-filled room; the 1922 Bar & Lounge specializes in craft cocktails with a nod to the Prohibition era.

Less adventurous types can head for the Adirondack chairs along the shoreline or to those placed at the far end of the docks that jet into the bay. Units are comfortable and spacious and could be the backdrop for a Tommy Bahama ad with their upscale tropical decor and hand-carved furniture. Small patios give you your own slice of paradise. Breakfast is served beneath the bayfront chickee.

It's one of those places that seems to reverberate with the echos of the old Hollywood elite who once ruled the town. The center of the Colony-verse is the pool courtyard, with its darling striped cabanas and umbrellas, which is where you'll find the bar and the excellent contemporary-American restaurant. Rooms and bungalows radiate out from the courtyard along paths that wind through leafy grounds.
