I want to vacation somewhere sometime later this year, but I am not sure where I want to go yet. I need some ideas.
Where is the nicest hotel that you ever went to in your lifetime?

Hmmm, I stayed in a hotel in Chicago right next to the House of Blues. I went there for a Kenny Wayne Sheperd (I think that's how you spell his name!) concert. For the life of me I can't remember what the hotel's name was. But the rooms were beautiful and had a very current style, and most importantly, it didn't smell like a hotel room! Just a nice fresh, clean smell. Not the typical "aroma" of bleach and shame!

I don't remember the name of it but it was on the Island of Capri, Italy and was in the late '80s, and was a very elegant place!

It's funny - I only look to hotels as places to sleep. I spend about 250 days a year in hotels - read: I am never really home. They all blend in together after a while and really mean nothing to me.
When I travel to exotic places, sometimes the nicest places I have ever stayed are not necessarialy the nicest but the host makes the whole difference. Not to mention the atmosphere of the town; I completely eschew all-inclusive crappy all-you-can-eat resorts and fat-ass adventure "travel".
I was in a remote area and found a small "hotel hostel" run by an expat Texan and his wonderful wife. They made me feel so welcome I stayed an extra three days just because. I will always remember that place. After being on the road for three months straight it actually felt like I was home.

It has been more than twenty years since I was last there, but the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs comes to mind...
