Fun. Chic. Exclusive. Luxurious. There is a hotel and resort for every mood. We have a few of our favorite hotels and resorts from across the USA and around the world.
There’s something mesmerizing about the majesty of the Columbia River, especially when enjoyed in a cozy bathrobe lying in a luxurious bed warmed by a flickering fireplace. Add in a cup of French press coffee and a freshly-made crepe from the chef’s kitchen at the...
The vast Navajo Nation Reservation covers more than 25,000 miles in New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, and Arizona. The Navajo Nation Parks are on some of the most scenic lands in the Southwest and are popular places to visit. If you want to experience iconic southwestern...
A road trip to Iowa offers a great opportunity to explore the Midwestern US. I reached The Highlander Hotel, on a hilltop near Interstate 80 in Iowa City, in the late afternoon. Large peace signs decorated indoor walls as Janis Joplin sang through the sound system....

A road trip down the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge parallels the popular (and very busy) waterfall-filled Oregon side. When you hear about the Columbia River Gorge you usually think about that side, lined with waterfalls such as the renowned Multnomah...
As I headed across the desert and crossed the California border at the deep blue Colorado River, I looked forward to seeing what was new with Palm Springs' Uptown Design District. It had been years since I had been there and even back then it was a destination for...
