Hotel Me More: Shower/Tub Combo, I Salute You
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2009/04/showertub-combo-i-salute-you.html
Shower/Tub Combo, I Salute You. It's rare to peep inside a hotel bathroom and spy a shower/tub combo. Nowadays. I know. Studies from the International Hotelinistic Institute say 174.6 percent of all travelers take showers, while a surprising 205 percent never bathe at all. Traditional baths are *so* 1920, the same studies say. And people have unwarranted but ever-present cooties issues. Are you sad, too? Posted by Hotel Me More. Thank you for choosing Hotel Me More. My husband grew up in one, and knows h...

Hotel Me More: Lovin' on a 1966 Landmark
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2010/02/lovin-on-1966-landmark.html
Lovin' on a 1966 Landmark. Happy days indeed: Century Plaza Hotel in Century City has been preserved. I feel like I want to be listening to some sort of Les Baxter moog music. When I look at this hotel. This snapshot by Jetalone captures the 1966-ish curve of the hotel. So few spots sport true curve these days. New hotels soon-to-be-built: Are you up to the curve challenge? Posted by Hotel Me More. Room service, elevator games, a fascination for ice machines. Living in the hotels my father managed was.

Hotel Me More: Eerie Elevators
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2011/03/eerie-elevators.html
Few elevators are as photographed as the Ahwahnee's. We wish and hope and believe that every Yosemite-visiting Kubrick fan knows to stop by this grand lodge. And gawk. Posted by Hotel Me More. Room service, elevator games, a fascination for ice machines. Living in the hotels my father managed was. And all magic. If you love old lobbies, fancy buffets, and the mystery of a long hallway, check in now. Thank you for choosing Hotel Me More. Dressed for brunch and mischief, Dad's hotel, age 5.

Great Hallways of the West. La Posada also wins the coveted "Great Back Lawns Upon Which We Like to Sip Toasty Irish Coffee and Watch Trains Rumble by on Bitter, See-the-Breath December Nights" title, too.

Hotel Me More: My Mezzanine
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2009/03/my-mezzanine.html
One of my earliest addresses was the mezzanine. Of a hotel my dad ran. I liked living on a mezzanine - it was probably the first French word I learned, although I didn't know it at the time - because it seemed like a floor that shouldn't exist, hovering somewhere between the lobby and the "real" floors of the hotel. Also, the "z" factor appealed. Children are fond of words with a lot of "z" going on. Posted by Hotel Me More. Thank you for choosing Hotel Me More. My husband grew up in one, and knows his d...

Hotel Me More: Hotel Camp

Tents, walks in the beach, and all the amenities of a fine inn. I'm recommending El Capitan Canyon. North of Santa Barbara, for Valentine's Day. Image: El Capitan Canyon. Posted by Hotel Me More.

Hotel Me More: Sequoia Suites
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2010/02/sequoia-suites.html
One reason I enjoyed writing about Wuksachi Lodge. On NBC is that it is a newer lodge in a national park. I'm a fan - well, let's be honest - I'm obsessed with the decades-old hotels of our parks. Hi LOVE you. Is that too forward? The Wuksachi is barely a decade old, but still has presence. And all those tall, tall, tall trees outside its door. Posted by Hotel Me More.

Hotel Me More: San Luis for Lovers
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2010/02/san-luis-for-lovers.html
San Luis for Lovers. Madonna Inn Valentine's 4evr. Am I right? I believe I am. After all, the hotel has a room called Romance. The name. Is right. On the door! I recently wrote up the San Luis Obispo landmark. As a great getaway for February 14. Still left: The Buffalo Room! Posted by Hotel Me More.

Hotel Me More: Hotel Room Cooking
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2008/12/hotel-room-cooking.html
One of my dearest friends, a flight attendant, travels with an insulated food bag that always mystifies and delights me. For in that bag are things that not only need refrigeration, but cooking. I swear I've seen rice, chicken, noodles and Beef Wellington with clarified butter and baby carrots. The woman knows how to wield a hotel iron. This fascinating list has more suggestions. I can't support any of this, really, because, well. Where has that lightbulb been? Posted by Hotel Me More.

Hotel Me More: Orange
http://hotelmemore.blogspot.com/2009/09/orange.html
I'm forever on the lookout for the truly unusual hotel room. I like the standard-issue chain room - there's something about expectations being met - but if I can sleep inside a giant light bulb, well, I'm charmed. My friend's family will be staying at the Propeller Island City Lodge in Germany soon. Of note: the all-orange room:. Is it like napping inside a huge piece of citrus? Or the center of the sun, perhaps? Posted by Hotel Me More. Thank you for choosing Hotel Me More.
