One of the most important parts of every vacation is where you choose to stay — whether you’re on a solo adventure, a couples getaway, or an insane group trip. The accommodations you choose can pretty much make or break an entire travel experience. When it’s bad, it’s bad. If you’ve never booked a hotel room that looked nothing like the advertised photos, had horrible service, or worse, a bug problem that you didn’t notice until you discovered a damn cockroach or spider in the shower…count your blessings.
But when you find an epic spot that exceeds your expectations? That’s what takes a vacation to the next level. Comfort, aesthetics, service, and overall coolness f*cking matter — let’s not try to pretend that they don’t.
If you’re looking to book your next big trip (or just scrolling travel options instead of Omicron numbers), check out the hotel suites below. From a cowboy-esque escape in the Catskills to a classy Hollywood abode to a downtown Dallas hotspot, these suites are worth splurging on.
