Some hotel rooms are just places to lay your head in between adventures. These ten, on the other hand, are made for staying in, for days and nights at a time.
The Carlyle
New York, New York
New York’s got no shortage of impossibly luxe rooms, but we’re not sure there are any that can quite match the Carlyle’s residential appeal. You’ll be dreaming of making your stay permanent.
The Hazelton Hotel
Toronto, Canada
The Hazelton is Toronto’s belated entry into the high-end luxury-boutique hotel business, and its massive suites offer all the comforts of home — and then a few more comforts after that.
Pershing Hall
Paris, France
Paris is a tough place to find a welcoming hotel room, but Pershing Hall’s modern interiors — and its generous spaces — invite thoughts of drawing the blinds and shutting out the City of Light.
Hotel Villa Real
Madrid, Spain
The Villa Real’s central location makes it an obvious home base for exploring Madrid, but its stylish split-level rooms and whirlpool-equipped suites make it a tempting choice for a lie-in.
Hotel Bel Air
Los Angeles, California
With a recent upgrade to it’s guest room interiors and lovely garden views, Hollywood’s favorite hotel for a bit of secluded hanky-panky just became film set-worthy too.
Blakes
London, England
A world apart from the rest of South Kensington, Blakes has long swum against the tide of minimalism; so ornate are its rooms that it’d take a long weekend indoors just to take in every aspect of the décor.
The Metropole
Venice, Italy
It’s taken for granted that all of Venice is a feast for the eyes, but the Metropole’s interiors present perhaps a purer vision of baroque Venetian fantasy than any of the city’s tourist-clotted exteriors.
Trump International Hotel & Tower
Chicago, Illinois
The new breed of luxury hotel mixes traditional hospitality and upscale residences, and at the Trump it’s tough to tell where one ends and the other begins. Perfect for February in the Windy City.
The Merrion
Dublin, Ireland
There are times when Dublin’s celebrated nightlife becomes a bit too much; The Merrion, happily, is on the right side of St. Stephen’s Green for a bit of peace and quiet in a sumptuous Georgian bedroom.
Hotel de Rome
Berlin, Germany
The GDR’s one-time central bank has “solid and sedate” more or less by default — credit Olga Polizi’s light feminine touch with making the Hotel de Rome’s bedrooms as warm and inviting as they are. Heated bathroom floors don’t hurt either.
