Columbus Motor Inn

$ | 1075 Columbus Ave., San Francisco, CA, 94133, USA

Close to Chinatown and Fisherman's Wharf, this affordable lodging with basic rooms decked out with oversize pillows, earth-toned bedding, and large flat-screen TVs is a great pick if you brought your family and have a car to park. Big windows offer the occasional glimpse of downtown, cable cars ding by outside, and a helpful staff and free parking and Wi-Fi add to the allure. Off-season rates are a steal.

Pros

  • Free parking
  • Affordable rooms deep-cleaned regularly
  • Lively location

Cons

  • Lacks amenities
  • Decor is not stylish
  • Street-facing accommodations can be noisy

At the entrance to Niagara Falls State Park, this is the closest hotel to the falls in the United States.

Commodore Perry Estate

$$$$ | 4100 Red River St., Austin, TX, 78751, USA

Tucked on the edge of the quaint Hyde Park neighborhood, just north of campus and downtown, the 1928 Commodore Perry mansion has been renovated to Italianate-style perfection and is now home to this Auberge Resorts Collection boutique hotel. Situated on an unassuming sprawl of 10 acres, the historic property achieves an idyllic, private countryside feel despite being minutes from downtown. A stone wall and immaculately landscaped grounds (strewn with the estate's trademark antique roses) separate the austere three-story mansion from its immediately lackluster surroundings. (The Hancock Center across the street, however, is convenient for essential needs like H-E-B or Jo's Coffee.) But the Commodore's insular luxury extends from the courtyard lounges and private terraces to the glamorous Texas-meets-European-classic interiors and exclusive, members-only atmosphere (locals can pay an annual membership fee to access the grounds, outdoor pool, and weekend fitness classes alongside hotel guests).

Pros

  • On-site Lutie's restaurant is one of the hottest tickets in town
  • Instagram-friendly outdoor pool and lounge spaces
  • Glamorous "countryside" luxury just minutes from downtown

Cons

  • Standard rooms are small and cramped for the price
  • Luxurious atmosphere can attract a certain level of snootiness in clientele
  • Immediate area outside of hotel lacks charm

Common Man Inn

$ | 21 Water St., Claremont, NH, 03743, USA

New Hampshire's distinctive Common Man hotel and restaurant group runs this quirky boutique hotel fashioned out of a striking 19th-century redbrick mill on downtown Claremont's Sugar River; the on-site restaurant serves hearty pub fare and has great water views. Although not fancy, each of the high-ceilinged rooms has its own look and layout, and many have fireplaces, exposed stone walls, and river views; some suites are two floors, and the top units have hot tubs and gas fireplaces.

Pros

  • Distinctive, historic architecture
  • Deck and hot tub overlooking river
  • Good location for exploring both sides of Connecticut River

Cons

  • 12 miles from Cornish
  • In a quiet town with few attractions
  • Not many good dining options in area

The inn also rents several cabins in a wooded mountain setting a few miles up the road.

Congress Hall

$ | 200 Congress Pl., Cape May, NJ, 08204, USA

From its inception in 1816, Congress Hall has had star power: President Benjamin Harrison made it his summer White House, and John Philip Sousa conducted the Congress Hall March on the lawn. Today the white-colonnade, Tuscan-yellow hotel is all breezy chic—sky-high ceilings, titan-size Victorian mirrors, glossy black wicker, and potted palms with attitude. Carpets have vibrant stripes, beds are dressed in white linens, and baths are sybaritic—some with 1920s, big-enough-for-two tubs—stocked with Aveda soaps and lotions. A C. H.-crest terry-cloth robe awaits so you can open the door and retrieve the New York Times without incident. Morning also brings breakfast in the spacious garden of the hotel's Blue Pig Tavern, while later in the day the staff will kindly set up cabanas for you at the beach and host evening activities for the little ones. Cocktails and music at the on-site Boiler Room bar close out the night.

Pros

  • Center of downtown social life
  • Historic relevance
  • Luxury accommodations
  • On-site spa

Cons

  • Expensive
  • Noisy on weekend nights

Conrad Los Angeles

$$$ | 100 S. Grand Ave., Los Angeles, CA, 90012, USA

The Conrad is Hilton's top-of-the-line hotel brand, and the DTLA iteration, designed by Frank Gehry and packed with priceless art and meticulous design, exudes top-of-the-line and luxury in every way. Adding to the impressive names is world-famous chef José Andrés who is at the forefront of both Spanish-forward restaurants on the property. Rooms are immaculate with floor-to-ceiling windows that show off L.A.'s impressive skyline along with a front row seat to the Walt Disney Concert Hall and The Broad art museum across the street. Adding to the hits here is the 10th floor pool (which is always warm), the very modern-equipped spa, and a pet friendly policy.

An indulgent-yet-reasonable surprise in a quiet Battery Park City location, this suites-only hotel has many coveted amenities: significant square footage, a breezy rooftop bar, and access to green space in nearby Hudson River Park. Every two-room suite has a separate bedroom and living area—starting at 430 square feet. Luxurious extras include a wet bar, espresso machine, and huge walk-in shower. A natural choice for business travelers, this hotel is also good for families (with a movie theater and Shake Shack in the same complex). The seasonal Loopy Doopy rooftop bar has Hudson river views and serves \"Poptails\" of fruit and sparkling wine. The ground-floor restaurant, Atrio, serves Mediterranean-influenced meals from an open kitchen, with spillover space in the futuristic lobby, anchored by a 14-story mural by Sol LeWitt.

Pros

The Consulate Suites

These four elegant suites, on the second story of the former offices of the French consul, range in size from 650 to 1,650 square feet and combine a 19th-century feel with 21st-century luxury. Antique architectural details add more than a hint of charm, and full kitchens and full-size washers and dryers make living easy. The two front units share an expansive balcony, where you can take in the constant parade of fishing vessels headed out to the Intracoastal Waterway. The homelike amenities make this a popular spot for families, larger groups, and even wedding parties, and discounts are given for stays longer than two nights. The Grady Market, a locally owned art-and-clothing boutique, occupies the building's first floor.

Coombs Inn & Suites

$$ | 80 6th St., Apalachicola, FL, 32320, USA

A combination of neighboring homes and a carriage house, this entire complex was created with Victorian flair. Seventeen fireplaces and an ornate oak staircase with leaded-glass windows on the landing lend authenticity to this restored 1905 mansion. Of the 23 rooms in the collection, no two guest rooms are alike, but all are appointed with Victorian-era settees and four-poster or sleigh king beds. A full breakfast is served in the dining room, an afternoon social includes tea and cookies, and occasionally the inn offers weekday specials. You can also stay in the villa or a renovated carriage house. Popular for weddings and receptions, these may be the most elegant homes in Apalachicola. Free tours are offered in the afternoon if the accommodations are not in use.

Pros

  • Clean and comfortable
  • On-site, friendly owner who's happy to assist with travel tips and suggestions
  • Complimentary bikes

Cons

  • Be prepared to meet and greet other guests

The chic, newly renovated Copley Square Hotel offers cushy mattresses, mini-refrigerators, high-speed Wi-Fi, and eco-friendly toiletries—not too shabby for a place that opened in 1891 and has provided respite to a century of celebrities like Babe Ruth, Ella Fitzgerald, and Billie Holiday. The mod rooms are so clean and streamlined that you just might overlook the fact that many are teeny. Nevertheless, the old-meets-new vibe is fun, and the neighborhood couldn't be livelier. To maximize your Zs, get a room in the back of the hotel, preferably high up, where traffic noise—and the rowdy partying—isn't so audible.

Pros

  • Cool scene

Cons

Pros

  • Excellent on-site dining
  • Carriage House rooms are a good deal

Cons

Copper King Mansion Bed and Breakfast

$$$ | 219 W. Granite St., Butte, MT, 59701, USA

Completed in 1888 as the home of notorious Copper King William Andrews Clark, the mansion remains much in its original state, and is the only privately owned mansion in Montana accessible to the public through seasonal tours. Five of the mansion's 35 rooms are used as a B&B, and the owners have attempted to re-create the experience of living like a turn-of-the-century millionaire, with such furnishings as a hand-carved fireplace, burled walnut bed, and a circular shower that hits you from all sides.

Pros

  • Where else can you live like a Copper King? The furniture, the stories, and the history are all genuine and first-rate
  • Central downtown location
  • Free guided tour

Cons

  • Even kings get hot without air-conditioning

Copper Mountain Resort

$$$$ | 509 Copper Rd., Copper Mountain, CO, 80443, USA

Copper Mountain Resort manages the majority of lodging in the area, ranging from standard hotel rooms to spacious condos and townhomes. The Center Village is the heart of the action, as it's close to most of the shops and restaurants. Unlike Vail with its Tyrolean feel and Breckenridge with its mining-town roots, Copper Mountain Resort was built from scratch, and has a more modern and function-over-form feel, with concrete towers showing just a hint of alpine architecture. East Village is not as centrally located but provides easier access to the mountain's more challenging terrain.

Pros

  • Located near expert skiing terrain
  • Wide range of accommodations
  • Includes use of the Copper Mountain Spa and Athletic Club

Cons

  • Village can be noisy
  • Quality of rooms varies greatly
  • Novice skiers will have to trek to the West Village

Copper Whale Inn

$$$ | 440 L St., Anchorage, AK, 99501, USA

This location offers the best of both worlds: it's walkable to everything worth seeing in Downtown, but it's on the quiet end of 5th Avenue, right next to a small park and the 11-mile Coastal Trail. The small inn was built as a private residence in 1939, and the unobstructed view across Cook Inlet to Sleeping Lady (Mt. Susitna) is a bonus. Rooms have individual themes, a hearty Continental breakfast is served in the comfortable living room, and a dozen good restaurants, including several of Alaska's finest, are within a 10-minute walk.

Pros

  • Bike rentals in the front yard
  • Convenient Downtown location
  • Beautiful private gardens

Cons

  • Only street parking
  • No airport shuttle
