1) Grove Park Inn...Asheville, NC
Built in 1912, it's a "grand hotel"!

2) McCloud Hotel...McCloud,CA
I guess its technically a B&B, but there are enough rooms to classify it as a hotel. Just restored in the last few years, at the foot of beautiful Mount Shasta!

One more thing: if you pick these, you have to take my wife and I to "guest host". After all, we've already done the leg work for you...it's not too much to ask, is it?
