The 2015 Academy Awards are in just two weeks — and we can’t wait!! As is the case every year, of course, this year’s Oscar-nominated films are on a whole other level. And (as is the case every year) we’re inspired by the films — not just by their messages or the truly terrific acting,…
Venice is absolutely gorgeous: The canals, the architecture, and the quaint local shops and restaurants make it a city worth exploring on foot. But it may be hard to get yourself out of bed if you’re staying in one of these amazing rooms! Take a look at ten Venetian hotels that are home to some…
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).

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…
This post originally appeared on Yahoo! Travel. People have long questioned the whole “the bigger, the better” theory. Most have concluded that it really depends on the circumstances, and we’d have to concur. After all, in our area of expertise (hotels, of course), sometimes a megaresort — packed with activities, restaurants, and enough rooms to…

We’ve trekked to some pretty far-off places, we’ve slept under the stars, and we’ve pinched pennies at some budget (but nonetheless awesome) locales.
