Anybody Hotel – Brno's Hotel Built Entirely Around Roleplay

Hotel Icefiord - Ilulissat's Front Row Seat To The Ice
At Hotel Icefiord in Ilulissat, Greenland, the staff keep a chalkboard in the restaurant where they mark a line for every whale spotted from the terrace each month. Some months it fills up fast. It's a bit of a running joke among them, but it also sums up the whole …
Camp Kangiusaq - Glamping Among the Icebergs of Nuuk Fjord
A couple of hours by boat from Greenland's capital, past waterfalls and drifting icebergs, sits a small cluster of heated tents where the only sounds at night are ice cracking in the water and wind against canvas. There's no phone signal, no wifi, and – depending on the season – …
Hotel das Cataratas - The Only Hotel Inside Iguaçu National Park
Only two hotels sit close enough to hear Iguassu Falls roar: a Sheraton on the Argentine side, and Hotel das Cataratas on the Brazilian side, inside the boundaries of Iguaçu National Park. Day-trippers file out at dusk, but you get to stay - watching 275 waterfalls catch the last light, …

Le Moulin d'Andé - A Working Mill Turned Artists' Refuge On The Seine

Chicago Athletic Association Hotel - Inside The Golden Age Playground Chicago Almost Lost
For 114 years, the only way through these doors was as a member – and only if you were male, wealthy, and vouched for by someone already inside. Today anyone can walk into the Chicago Athletic Association, order a drink in a room where Prohibition-era police once looked the other …
Henderson Castle - Inside The Michigan Mansion With A Ghost For Every Room
On a hill overlooking downtown Kalamazoo, Michigan, sits an actual castle – turrets, sandstone walls, stained glass and all. It was built in 1895 by a local uniform manufacturer as a family home, and today it operates as a bed and breakfast run by a French-trained chef who describes himself …
ss Rotterdam - A Retired Ocean Liner You Can Still Sleep On
In September 1958, Queen Juliana swung a silver axe to launch a ship built as the flagship of Holland America Line's transatlantic fleet: a 228-meter (748-foot) liner with an engineering choice that startled shipbuilders at the time – twin exhaust uptakes in place of a single funnel, which freed up …
Hotel César Lanzarote - A Family Farmhouse Reborn On The Volcano's Edge
On the inland slopes above Lanzarote's south coast, in the small village of La Asomada, a farmhouse that once belonged to the family of artist César Manrique has become one of the island's more interesting places to stay. Hotel César Lanzarote opened in 2023 with just 20 rooms, a restored …
Castle Hot Springs – The Desert Resort Where Presidents Came To Heal
About 50 miles northwest of Phoenix, at the end of a rutted dirt road, sits a resort that's been pulling people out of their routines since 1896. Castle Hot Springs was Arizona's first wellness retreat, and its early guest book reads like a Gilded Age roll call – the Vanderbilts, …
