This 102-room boutique in Midtown Atlanta blends some of its original 1920's Spanish architecture with modern, stylish interior decor. The Artmore's garden courtyard, with brown wicker lounge chairs and a stone fountain, is a highlight, and offers shelter from the city's hubbub. Rooms are upscale, with bright decor in shades of red, white, and cream, and come with up-to-date technology: flat-screen TVs, iPod docks, and free Wi-Fi. But the hotel lacks an on-site restaurant and pool, and you'll have to drive to see the sites in Downtown Atlanta.

The Holiday Inn Apex is higher-end than you might expect from the chain, with cozy mountain lodge decor in the public spaces. (Rooms, however, are for the most part typically chain-like, and could use an update.) The indoor Jacuzzi, year-round outdoor pool with beautiful views, and three solid on-site restaurants are all perks, but the location a few miles from Vail and Lionshead Villages is inconvenient.

The three-pearl BKLYN House is a simple, yet funky hotel in the up-and-coming neighborhood of Bushwick in northern Brooklyn. There are a handful of nearby restaurants and shops, as well as a subway station (the JMZ line) just a three-minute walk away. All rates include a free hot buffet breakfast and there is free juice, tea, and coffee on offer throughout the day. Other features are limited to a common area with two internet-connected computers with printing facilities and free day passes to two nearby gyms. As an alternative, Aloft New York Brooklyn is located closer to downtown Brooklyn and features an indoor rooftop pool as well as a fitness center.
