My favorite hotel is actually the Hotel Del in Coronado. I have wonderful personal associations with it from the time period in the late 1960s when I was a Navy officer stationed in Coronado, and I have since returned to it on several happy occasions, for conferences or just personal time. It’s a unique and well-loved landmark, immortalized in such films as “Some Like It Hot” and “The Stuntman,” but one which stands on its own merits as a meticulously run, state-of-the-art travel destination. (And knowing that Marilyn Monroe cavorted on the sands in its back yard doesn’t hurt its reputation one bit!)
My favorite hotel is Rovos Rail but I doubt that that answer would qualify me. So, my next favorite is Louis C. Jacob Hotel, Nienstedten, (Hamburg), Germany.
I have so many but sticking to my magical Peru – The Delfin1 Luxury Amazon cruise with only 4 suites and all glass to see the Amazon as you float by.

My favorite hotel …. Grand Hyatt Istanbul
Love the Serena Lodge in Masai Mara, Kenya
I’m partial to LeSud in Lyon, but many worldwide. I can’t say I truly have a favorite.
New York, New York in Las Vegas, Nevada
My Fav Hotel – Fairway Villas (Kona)
Hard to pick just one, but I’ll go for the Waterford Castle in Waterford, Ireland. You take a “ferry” (fits 2 or 3 cars) to the island and stay. Myself and other guests were lounging in the living room when the desk closed and we felt like the place was ours.
Would love to win the Coronado Hotel stay. I went to SDSU and we used to have dances there but never stayed.
The District Boracay
Pool House – Poolewe, Scotland
Ojai Valley Inn & Spa – Ojai, CA
The Sainte Valerie hotel in Juan les Pins France – a small boutique hotel, lovely breakfast outside on the patio. Walking distance to the shopping area of Juan les Pins and the famous Pinède. A 5 minute walk to the beach – I recommend the Plage des Pirates where you can not only have a lounge chair and umbrella but lunch in the sand!

Hotel Del!
The Imperial in Delhi…. Absolutely stunning x

Eden Rock, Miami Beach
My favorite hotel (anywhere in the world)? That’s easy: Castle Hotel Auf Schoenburg, off the Rhine in Germany. Amazing.
My favorite hotel in the world is Bhu Nga Thani Resort & Spa on Railay Beach in Krabi, Thailand
My favorite hotel is Ananda in the Himalayas Resort. Not that I stayed there, but I did have an amazing lunch and tour of this former palace of a Maharishi and then a British colonial official. It’s a hair-raising ride up the mountains from Rishikesh, a sacred Yoga city on the Ganges in Uttarakhand…but totally worth the visit for the gorgeous grounds, the tastefully furnished rooms, the spa treatments, and the views.
My favorite hotel is the Grand Hotel on Mackinaw Island.
Happy Days Hotel in Cesenatico Italy. So close to the beach. Absolutely beautiful town.
The Ahwahnee Hotel, Yosemite, CA
Navy Lodge on Coronado, CA.
It has the best beach and you feel very safe with the Navy men and women around. A beautiful facility for our military service men and women and their families to enjoy.
Hotel del Coronado, San Diego CA
Hana Ranch
Circus circus in Las Vegas.
