Deciding where to stay is one of the most important parts of planning a trip. The beautiful hotels in A Place to Stay will come as a revelation to travelers who are tired of faceless resorts or corporate institutions. Modest or grand, large or small, modernist or traditional, the only thing these hotels have in common is that each is an unforgettable original. These hotels cater to all tastes, in countries around the world-from the Ice Hotel in Arctic Sweden, where everything is carved from ice, including the bed, to the contemporary chic of the Mercer in New York, or the ordered tranquillity of the traditional Tawaraya Inn, Kyoto. Complete with more than two hundred lush color photographs, A Place to Stay will inspire travelers of every stripe.

Someone knows what they're talking about...,
By Blue Thorwiggin (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Place to Stay: 30 Extraordinary Hotels (Paperback)
This book is available in Europe now (prior to US release). I read it in Paris and have stayed at most of the hotels mentioned. I always find I am at odds with lists like these, such as Conde Nast's Gold List, etc: there are usually too many third rate hotels that make the cut. Not so here. These are all really great suggestions and the properties themselves are beautifully photographed. This book makes a nice coffee table or a reference.
