This coming Monday is Presidents’ Day, a holiday rightfully honoring the tireless work of U.S. presidents, past and present. (And future? Well, sure, why not.) But while leading the country is certainly one of the harder jobs you can have, it does come with a few perks. We imagine the extensive traveling is exhausting, but…
Any writer worth his weight in hardbacks knows that one of the most essential aspects of a story is setting; it sets the scene, provides conflict, controls character interaction, and creates a mood. It only makes sense, then, that authors return again and again to hotels in particular to fill the backdrop of their stories.…
We believe in the overall travel principle that less is often more. Short trips with fewer destinations means more time spent absorbing and really connecting to a locale. Less baggage to carry around means more freedom on the road. And we always love when things work out to be more bang for less buck! This…
If you’re one of the many shoppers out there struggling with gift buying this holiday season, don’t fret. Whether you’re a road warrior with no time to shop or just looking for a ‘lil inspiration, we’ve found a surprising source for great gift ideas: hotels. From gourmet goodies to decadent bath products to home decor,…
When we think of fairytale retreats, we think of cozy cottages and dramatic castles. On the cottage front, we’re picturing spots with gingerbread architecture, charming historic style, or homey interiors with roaring fireplaces (though we imagine Hansel and Gretel wouldn’t be too pleased about the latter offering). And when it comes to castles, we’re dreaming…
In our original post, we brought you from Nantucket to Kauai and everywhere in between, offering perfectly captured glimpses of our country’s most beautiful vistas. But we’d be biased if we only shared our stunning photos of the United States. So we packed our bags and headed to Europe in search of its best vantage…
This post originally appeared on Yahoo! Travel. Traveling can be expensive. After all, hotels, transportation, dining, and sight-seeing add up quickly! But one way to lessen the financial load is to opt for hostels over hotels; these budget-oriented spots have an undeserved bad rap. Sure, they’re usually bare bones when it comes to accommodations, but…
Suburbia often gets overlooked, especially by those planning a vacation — often an adventurous vacation purposely away from the cookie cutter homes and manicured lawns that the suburbs are known for. But sometimes, a touch of the familiar can be reassuring when exploring a new city. And hotels outside the city limits — but near…
Let’s play a game of “would you rather.” Would you rather stay in a cute boutique in Istanbul or a dated (but canal-side) hotel in Venice? A historic country estate in Ireland or a stylish, woodsy hotel on the fjords in Norway? Everyone’s preferences are different, but one thing is for sure: Not every destination…
We have travel experts visiting and revisiting destinations around the world every day, and we love when the fresh photos of gorgeous locales start to roll into our offices. Now that fall is approaching (we know, we hate to bring it up — but Labor Day coming and going kinda already did), we’re getting particularly…
