Iconic Destinations Beckon: Where Will You Go?
Some brand-new properties will be opening their doors to the public this year. Here’s a quick tease on which ones to watch out for…
Washington D.C. | Stay at The Morrow Hotel in burgeoning NoMa
The Morrow Hotel is a cornerstone tenant in the NoMa neighborhood of Washington D.C. which is positioned for massive growth over the next few years. The Morrow is the first hotel of its kind in the area, created to serve all this new growth through its rooms/suites, meeting spaces, event spaces, restaurants/lounges (from local Michelin-starred chef Nicholas Stefanelli), partnerships, etc. The Morrow Hotel, part of the new 3rd Street District development, is ideally situated at the nexus of NoMa, Union Market and H Street, with easy access to the NoMaGallaudet U Metro and Union Station.
Hudson Valley, NY | Experience The Ranch Hudson Valley
Just 90 miles outside of the city is Hudson Valley, NY, the region that has become a weekend getaway for New Yorkers wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of the city to find nature and peace. The region is growing with more wellness-tied properties and has become a wellness hotspot. The Ranch, a celebrity-favorite wellness retreat best known for the Malibu location in California, is expanding to the east coast with The Ranch Hudson Valley. Nestled amidst 200 acres in a historic lakefront estate, it is located 45 minutes from New York City and immerses guests in nature as they experience the core elements of The Ranch program – hiking, fitness classes, yoga, deep tissue massage, and a plant-based diet.
Stockbridge, MA | The Berkshires Abuzz
The Berkshires is a cultural hotspot with visitors making their way here to experience local art, breweries, outdoor adventures, a thriving food scene, entertainment, and shopping, while offering activities suitable for every season. With lovely B&Bs, trendy cottages, Victorian houses and retro retreats, The Berkshires offers some hidden New England gems with some new and upcoming hotels such as Lifehouse, but The Red Lion Inn stays true to its charm as an iconic picturesque landmark located in Stockbridge, MA, providing a veritable playground to nearby attractions. An idyllic town that was home to Norman Rockwell and set the scene for many of his classic American paintings, Stockbridge offers rich history and old-world charm in the heart of the Berkshires, a destination that has been known and loved by travelers.
Newport, RI | Go in For The Gilded Age
A coastal city meant for a quick seaside getaway or staycation, Newport, Rhode Island, is having a moment with the help of HBO Max’s show Gilded Age. There are plenty of ways visitors can take part in the Gilded-Age fun of Newport’s storied past. As the first harborside hotel in Newport that debuted mid-pandemic in 2020, The Brenton and Hammetts Hotel allows guests stunning nautical views with luxury accommodations. Hammetts is a new kind of hotel on the Newport waterfront where guests can feel the footprint of the city’s historic past carefully blended with the aesthetic of a modern yacht club. With a subtle nod to the city’s turn of the century mercantile wharves in its design and decor, the hotel conveys quality while being engineered for simplicity and easy use. Hammetts offers not only a prime location in the heart of the city, but a portal to its art, dining and history, with a gallery on-site as well as Giusto, a freestyle Italian restaurant connected to the hotel. m
