    Read Reviews

    845 United Nations Plz, New York, NY 10017 (map)

On the Road

  1. 6 4 Star Rating: Recommended Ten Thousand Waves Japanese
    Read Reviews

    3451 Hyde Park Rd, Santa Fe, NM 87501 (map)

    "I often stay with friends, but my first stop is Ten Thousand Waves. I've been going to this Japanese bathhouse since the mid-80's. It is quite upscale now, but I still go up around sunset, ask for the private Ichiban hot tub with a view of the mountains, then settle in for a long massage."

    Read Reviews

    630 Bedford Rd, Tarrytown, NY 10591 (map)

    "Located on part of the Rockefeller Estate, the setting is spectacular and the dining divine. Most of the food is grown on the property. An experience for the eyes, palate and soul!"

    Read Reviews

    175 N Jackson St, Jackson, WY 83001 (map)

    "A stay at the Rusty Parrot is a must. An elegant small hotel a few blocks off the main square, it is also known for fabulous food. The breakfast, especially the Sunday brunch, should not be missed."

  4. 9 4.5 Star Rating: Recommended Hotel Bel-Air
    Read Reviews

    701 Stone Canyon Rd, Los Angeles, CA 90077 (map)

    "The Hotel Bel-Air is the embodiment of bucolic elegance. When you cross the bridge from the parking lot to the hotel, you have entered another world. The gardens are fabulous, the pool scene, decadent fun and the rooms, utter luxury. It is truly hard to leave!"

    Read Reviews

    2321 W Highway 89a, Sedona, AZ 86336 (map)
