If you are starting to think about where the season might take you, these five hotels should help sort it out. Consider them a good place to begin as the calendar turns toward longer days and the first trips of the year. | | Aman New York New York, NY Located on the corner of Fifth Avenue and 57th Street inside the landmarked Crown Building, Aman New York occupies one of Midtown's most recognizable addresses. The iconic flagships of Fifth Avenue are right outside, Central Park is just a few blocks uptown, and cultural institutions like the MoMA, Carnegie Hall, and Radio City Music Hall are all within walking distance. Despite its location in the heart of Manhattan, the hotel feels deliberately removed from the city's pace. Rooms are among the largest in New York and feature working fireplaces, marble rain showers, and restrained Japanese-inspired design. Wellness is a defining draw, anchored by a 65-foot indoor pool and private Spa Houses equipped with either a banya sauna or hammam. Dining includes Nama's Japanese cuisine, Arva's convivial Italian, and The Jazz Club, an intimate subterranean venue that nods to the city's live music legacy. It's both a serene escape and a strategic Midtown base, offering a level of privacy and scale rarely found in this part of the city. Breakfast, roundtrip transfers & $500 hotel credit Offer: Signature Suite Stay | | Red Cottage Northeast, US Culture takes different forms at Red Cottage. Sometimes it's a historic estate with original woodwork and deep-set fireplaces, other times it's a contemporary hideout that could be found in a design magazine spread. These curated home stays across the Northeast aren't just about location; they're about character. You'll find them in the Berkshires, the Hudson Valley, and the Catskills, regions where weekends away are less about packed itineraries and more about slowing down. Think reading by the fire in a secluded cabin like Saltbox Lodge, cooking dinner in the chef's kitchen in The Makely House, or gathering friends for a dinner that stretches late into the evening at Breathe Inn. Collections like waterfront properties, hot tub getaways, and homes with sweeping views help you find the exact kind of stay you want, while Red Cottage's around-the-clock guest services team keeps everything running smoothly. | | Royalton Park Avenue Hotel New York, NY For the traveler looking for the perfect blend of luxury and local flair, Royalton Park Avenue Hotel is a true New York gem worth booking. Located on Park Avenue, just steps from the Empire State Building in Manhattan's trendy NoMad neighborhood, this hotel promises guests a stay in style in the heart of it all. The 249 rooms are designed for ultimate comfort and indulgence, complete with luxe furnishings, colorful accents, 400-thread-count Egyptian cotton linens, and Park Avenue views. Dine at the Ivy Room for seasonal dishes and curated cocktails with a side of live piano music, or head up to the rooftop bar and lounge for happy hour at the aptly-named Penthouse On Park. Up to 25% off multiple night stays Offer: Stay And Save | | The Nantucket Inn Nantucket, MA A charming 100-key clapboard inn on Nantucket, this newly renovated retreat offers a refined take on coastal New England charm in one of the region's most iconic summer destinations.

Up to 20% off when you stay 4 or more nights Offer: Stay More Than 4 Nights And Save (available to select during booking) | | Hotel Anthracite Scranton, PA Coal country meets culture crawl. Hotel Anthracite plants guests in the center of Carbondale's revival story, where the raw materials of the past, steel, stone, and steam, still shape the landscape, but no longer define it. Inside, a bold industrial aesthetic shares space with local art and a sculptural tribute to the town's mining legacy. Outside, the Lackawanna River Heritage Trail draws walkers and bikers with its winding path and riverside vantage points. On Main Street, the mood is unfussy but plugged-in: small shops mingle with eateries and weekend events that spill out onto sidewalks. Back at the hotel, Kol Grill draws an eclectic crowd, locals, day-trippers, business travelers, all after charred steaks or whatever's on the specials board that night. Rooms offer the kind of calm that feels earned: blackout curtains, spa-grade touches, and views of hills or City Hall.
