What's Great Travel + Leisure says... "Contemporary high-rise with Asian-inspired interiors on a 44-acre island near the business district that offers a serene location-and plenty of luxury perks (a private white-sand beach, a 15,000-square-foot tri-level spa, the acclaimed restaurant Azul). Rooms to Book: Those ending in 25 or 26 have the biggest balconies. A Spa Lifestyle room on the sixth floor, ideal for the stressed, with air-purification systems, yoga mats for in-room meditation and yoga classes, spa cuisine menus, and dumbbell racks. Insider Tip: Order chef Clay Conley’s five-course Mediterranean-Asian fusion tasting menu at Azul. Besides the Mandarin's trademark luxury Asian touches, the reason to stay here is the view of the downtown Miami skyline and Biscayne Bay. Of course, those views come with a carefully modulated elegance, evident in the design of the curvy white building and the cream-colored marble baths that open onto generous balconies. The Mandarin is located on Brickell Key, a small residential island that has fairly pedestrian condos. Still, it's within walking distance of downtown for business travelers, and has all the advantages of a waterfront resort (making it ideal for singles too). In fact, only in Miami would a Mandarin have a private man-made beach and a weekly Friday night party that rivals the social fray of South Beach. The next day, celebrants can work it all out in the soothing Asian-inspired spa." -From www.travelandleisure.com

"A 32-story tower surrounded by 7 acres of gardens in the Marina Bay district, with the largest standard rooms in town (an average of 550 square feet), all of which have sweeping bay or city views.
Rooms to Book: Deluxe Marina Bay View rooms include all-day access to an exclusive guest lounge with complimentary food and beverage presentations daily.
Insider Tip: Take a self-guided audio podcast tour of the hotel's 4,200-piece art collection, which includes works by Stella, Hockney, and Warhol.
Of the numerous five-star hotels lining the marina frontage, the Ritz-Carlton is the most thoroughly impressive. The dramatic tone is set as soon as you enter the light-filled atrium foyer, capped by a massive, swirling-yet-geometric Frank Stella mobile, and continues with smiling, attentive service through to the tight but unobtrusive security staffers scattered through the public spaces—necessary for safeguarding the hotel’s extraordinary 4,200-piece museum-quality art collection (which includes works by Dale Chihuly, Henry Moore, and David Hockney). The 608 high-ceilinged rooms feel like spacious aeries, with cloudlike feather beds and feather pillows, 37-inch flat screens, and spacious marbled bathrooms that peek out over Singapore’s Manhattan-like skyline."

112 North Market Street Charleston,
South Carolina, US
From $260 per night
Built three centuries ago, the city of Charleston is one of the best-preserved architectural treasures in the United States. The colonial houses lining its narrow streets are an eloquent reminder of its joyous and tormented story, like a condensed history of America. The birthplace of swing and the Charleston dance - made famous by Josephine Baker - the city still has all the charm that it owes to its multi-ethnic origins. Entering the Planters Inn, overlooking the Old City Market and the many art galleries, is like stepping back in time. On the patios full of tropical flowers and fountains, you will relax to a serenade of jazz. As well as sipping delicious cocktails and tasting the generous American cuisine, you can discover the nearby sites of Cypress Gardens, Middleton Place and other famous old cotton and tobacco plantations.
