Inside Hotel du Cap Eden Roc, the Exclusive Hotel in the South of France Known for Glam Celeb Parties
celeb worthy stays

If a celebrity is headed to the South of France, you can probably guess where they’re going to be hanging their (v chic) hats: the Hotel du Cap Eden Roc. Known as one of the world’s most elegant, exclusive, and expensive hotels, this 5-star resort is where the rich and famous have stayed and played along the French Riveria for over 150 years. It’s not easy to get in—actually, it’s notoriously difficult to snag one of their 118 rooms and well-equipped suites, especially during the peak season as an, ahem, normie. But, if you can get a reservation, it’s a one-way ticket to joining the It Crowd.

Originally built in 1869 as a place for writers to unwind and seek inspiration, the sprawling chateau (no like, it’s built on 22 acres of coastline) opened as a hotel in 1889, immediately catering to ~society’s elite~. It’s been a summer hotspot ever since for anyone with chunks of change to blow, from Pablo Picasso to Beyonce. And when I say “chunks of change,” I’m talking serious cash: the most luxurious suite, the Eden-Roc, which has a 200-square-meter terrace overlooking the water, goes for up to $12,000 per night, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

How much are hotel rooms in Biloxi for Black spring break? Prices are climbing.

A Mississippi Coast hotel listing on Hotwire includes the warning, “Nab it before it goes up again.”

If you’re looking for a room to stay from April 13 to 16 during Black Spring Break in Biloxi, don’t take the warning lightly. As of Thursday morning, the average standard rate for a hotel in the area was $267 a night.

Three nights at a 3 1/2-star downtown Biloxi resort recently jumped from $152 a night to $279 a night for the spring break weekend.

And rates are only going up.

People can call the Mississippi Hotel & Lodging Association’s reservation office at 888-388-1006 to find available rooms and rates.

Prices on casino hotels & other resorts for spring break

Prices for rooms vary based on how and where you book.

Some rooms for Black spring break weekend are going for as as much as $675 per night on Hotels.com.

A room at Hilton Garden Inn on Highway 49 in Gulfport is going for about $329 per night spring break weekend. It’s closer to the interstate than the beach.

At Centennial Plaza, which is along Beach Boulevard and less than 10 minutes away from the main spring break events, rooms are going for about $480 a night on the Hotels.com site.

Casino resorts in Biloxi have hotel rooms going for even more that weekend. Harrah’s Gulf Coast has rooms available for $569 per night. Golden Nugget rooms are going for $616 per night, and IP Casino’s rooms that are left are going for $676 on Hotels.com.

Rates on these rooms can vary if you don’t book through a third-party. Players card holders at casinos may also be eligible for different rates, depending on each casino’s rules or offers.

SF hotel industry to hire 1,200 employees in hopes of a busy tourism season
hotel.jpg?ve=1&tl=1″ alt=”” data-v-7d0efd03=””/article

SAN FRANCISCO – As San Francisco leaders make plans to revive the Union Square shopping district, hotels in the city want to fill 1,200 jobs. 

During a joint press conference Tuesday at a downtown hotel, national, state and local hospitality leaders said they have high hopes for a bustling summer tourism season as the industry makes a slow recovery from COVID-19 lockdowns.

The city’s hotel occupancy rate remains down by 24 percent compared to pre-pandemic levels, but the tourism sector is optimistic that as international travel restrictions ease up, group tourism reawakens and conferences come back to the city, downtown will be vibrant once again.

To accommodate the projected uptick in visitors and conference attendees, the industry wants to recruit and retain hotel workers by providing above-average-wage jobs with benefits and career pathways. 

The announcement comes on the heels of Mayor London Breed and Supervisor Aaron Peskin introducing legislation Monday that aims to turn Union Square’s vacant retail storefronts into dynamic spaces. If passed, the building code policies would change so multi-level buildings can become office spaces, restaurants and retail stores all at once. 

“The challenges facing downtown require us to imagine what is possible and create the foundation for a stronger, more resilient future,” Breed said. 

After roughly 18 months of lockdown restrictions, San Francisco’s 200-plus hotels lost a large portion of their 25,000-person workforce — at the pandemic’s peak, the industry lost about 70 percent of its workers. Today, the workforce is about 75 to 80 percent of what it was before the pandemic, said Hotel Council of San Francisco president & CEO Alex Bastian. 

“We are looking at really growing again, we’re looking at bringing back this community to the position it was before and to take it even further than that,”

March is here, which means spring break is right around the corner.

Sunny, beach destinations are always a popular option, but if you haven’t received your passport in time to go abroad, Miami is always a top-tier choice.

Florida consistently finds itself on “top Spring Break destinations” lists, with Miami being a no-brainer because of its sunny beaches, warm climate, expansive culture and abundance of activities.

How to book cheaper holidays, and other tips

At a time of high inflation all around the world, booking your holidays can feel like more of a strain on your budget than ever. But some simple and often overlooked changes in your booking strategy can cushion the blow.

1. Start with your transport habits. If you expand your travel search to more distant departure airports, new and possibly cheaper flights will show.

In places where there are railway connections to the airport, the train journey to the airport is included in many package tours – “Rail & Fly” – so you only have to put up with the longer journey. That should be less of a burden if it means you can save money.

2. Try varying your travel dates. Do they really have to be from Saturday to Saturday, or exactly 14 days? Be more flexible with arrival and departure days as well as the duration of the trip, and you can snag some neat bargains.

Also, check flights during the week and uneven travel periods like 13 or 15 days.

3. Look for children’s discounts. Many tour operators offer much reduced prices for children in certain hotels and destinations, so it’s well worth taking a closer look.

4. Dig deeper in the details of what is included in the package tour. Supposedly cheaper offers may turn out to be not such great bargains after all, for example, because hotel transfer is not included and you have to organise the 100km from the airport to the hotel yourself.

That’s why you must keep an eye on all the components of an offer when comparing package prices, from the room furnishings to the catering, to the included activities and the arrival and departure.

5. Try to be more flexible on flight times. Of course, no one likes to

15 Best Resorts And Hotels With Lazy Rivers

What sounds better than spending the day lounging in a lazy river with your family? If planning a family vacation is on the brain, parents with children of any age might want to make sure their hotel or resort has a lazy river on the property.

Abby Kastin, SmartFlyer travel advisor, told TODAY Parents that resorts with lazy rivers — a water feature that allows guests to float along a slow current — are popular among families.

“Adults looking for a resort or hotel with lazy rivers should keep in mind that the resort is most likely going to be very kid friendly and therefore will have a lot of children around,” Kastin said.

Lake Tahoe Desolation Hotel bills itself as an ‘eco-luxury’ resort

Travelers looking for high-end, eco-friendly lodging in Lake Tahoe get a new option as the new Desolation Hotel celebrated its official grand opening this week.

Billed as an “eco-luxury micro-resort,” the Desolation Hotel joins the growing worldwide trend of upscale “experiential” lodging with a focus on the outdoors and the environment. The hotel gets its name from the Desolation Wilderness near its South Lake Tahoe location.

“We are incredibly passionate about delivering an authentic, locally conscientious, and unforgettable South Lake Tahoe experience for our guests,” says Desolation Hotel founder Chet Pipkin, in a statement. “We’re providing an immersive luxury destination that offers guests the opportunity to both relax and to get out and adventure, all while being responsible stewards of this incredible natural environment we’re fortunate to call home.”

Pipkin is also the founder and former CEO of technology company Belkin. Construction on the Desolation Hotel, which is located on the former Tahoe Villa Motel site, started in April 2020.

The Desolation Hotel’s 21 luxury suites boast several amenities designed to give them an upscale but more residential “live-work-play” feel. These include kitchenettes with Bertazzoni gas ranges, in-room fireplaces, private balconies and al fresco soaking tubs. The Desolation Hotel also has a saltwater pool, a large outdoor jacuzzi, a Port Orford cedar sauna and a fitness room.

Visitors looking to indulge and food and drink can drop by Maggie’s restaurant and bar on the third floor, which offers a 360-degree view of the Desolation Hotel’s surroundings. Drinks include a selection of Scotch whiskies as well as spirits from local producers such as Tahoe Blue Vodka.

Three Palm Beach hotels make Travel + Leisure’s list of best in Florida
The White Elephant was named the No. 1 Best Resort in Florida by Travel + Leisure's readers.

The White Elephant was named the No. 1 Best Resort in Florida by Travel + Leisure’s readers.

Three Palm Beach hotels are among Florida’s best — and one of them, the White Elephant, is among the top hotels around the globe, according to Travel + Leisure’s annual awards announced Tuesday.

The White Elephant, The Colony and the Four Seasons earned honors in the New York-based magazine’s 2022 World’s Best Awards, which are based on the results of an annual readers’ survey covering such topics as hotels, cruise lines, and U.S. and global destinations.

Award-winners reflect “excellence in hospitality” at a time when “travel continues to rebound and people are looking for new trip ideas and inspiration,” Travel + Leisure Editor-in-Chief Jacqui Gifford said.

The White Elephant, which debuted in November of 2020 with 32 rooms and suites, earned positions in three categories.

It took the No. 1 spot in “The 15 Best Resorts in Florida” and ranked No. 2 in “The 15 Best Resorts in the Continental U.S.” (just behind No. 1 Pickering House Inn in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire). And in “100 Best Hotels in the World,” the White Elephant earned the No. 19 spot.

The trio of wins “is a true testament to our amazing team at the property for providing such memorable guest experiences,” said Khaled Hashem, president of White Elephant Resorts, which also includes five hotel properties in Nantucket, Massachusetts.
