Don't spend your next trip to the east coast at airports and hotels! From New York City to the Appalachian Mountains, Miami Beach to Niagara Falls, there are countless attractions to visit and take in.While this list could go on and on, here are 11 of the most breathtaking spots our eastern United States has to offer:
A Word of Caution No, I'm not talking about one star hotels just yet. Rather, it's important to realize that there is no, one single scale that determines what stars which hotels get. Stars are given my hundreds of different organizations based on many different standards. The difference between Europe's 4-star system and America's 5-star system is just the beginning.
So as you read these descriptions of the different star hotels, keep in mind that these are generalizations. Use these stars as a beginning guideline, but if you really care about what services you will be getting at a particular hotel, ask them directly. Ok? Great.
5 Star Hotels Let's start with the best, shall we? 5 star hotels are the ones you see in James Bond movies. They are the top of the top, the classiest, ritziest, most heavenly places around. 5 star hotels offer 24/7 room service, valet parking, concierge service, top quality linens, in-room video, big screen TVs, and Jacuzzi bathtubs. Most 5 start hotels boast some of the world's best chefs and gourmet menus as well. They are located in beautiful and convenient areas and everything about them screams luxury and elegance.
4 Star Hotels Not quite as elegant as 5 star hotels, but still extremely nice and well-equipped, 4 star hotels are the slightly less expensive version of 5 star hotels.
They offer many of the same services - room service, valet parking, concierge service - plus excellent fitness rooms, business rooms, lounges, and banquet rooms (as do most 5 star hotels).
Downtown Savannah The Savannah Historic District is the largest historical landmark in the country. Get a glimpse of pre-Civil War Georgia, with cobblestone streets, historic mansions, churches, and plenty of entertainment for the entire family!
3 Star Hotels Also very nice and comfortable, 3 star hotels also provide room service, concierge service, fitness rooms, pools, on-site restaurants, and convenient locations. They are clean and well decorated, but lack the fine elegance you would find in 5 or 4 star hotels.
2 Star Hotels As we get down into the 2 star range, you'll see fewer services, but still comfortable and clean rooms. You'll rarely if ever see room service, but many 2 star hotels still have an on-site restaurant. Rooms will be medium to small sized with basic amenities like a TV, phone, and hair dryer, but not much else unless specified.
Many 2 star hotels do offer a small fitness area and/or a pool. They are usually located around airports, highways, and shopping centers.
1 Star Hotels These types of hotels are small and usually independently owned and run by the same person. You will still have the basic amenities for sleeping, but not much else.
They are usually in walking distance of restaurants and are generally located near major highways and forms of transportation.
Featuring the marine life of the sound, the Maritime Aquarium at Norwalk, Connecticut, boasts sharks, sea otters, and 259 species in all. If you are planning on attending this aquarium, definitely look for hotels in Norwalk, Connecticut!
