Four Special Hotels Around the World
Amangiri, Canyon Point, Utah
This place in the Utah desert is a favorite of many celebrities: While every room here has character, none matches the elegance(高雅)of the Girijaala Suite. The room has a large private lap pool, a sweeping balcony, and a sky lounge(起居室) area where guests can bed down for the night under the clear Utah skies.
Beyond gala Safari Lodge, South Africa
At this place on the border of Kruger National Park, guests can reserve a one-night experience in a four-level tree house to see animals that wander the park.
With no ordinary structure, the house has a supply of solar power, a water collection system, and a bio-rock sanitation (卫生) system. Here, guests can sleep under the night sky taking in the magic of their surroundings.
Beverly Wilshire, Beverly Hills, California
Beverly Wilshire has been an attraction to many rich and powerful people since its opening in 1928. Guests who reserve the Veranda Suite located on the roof of the hotel are in for a serious surprise. Not only is the room accessed by a hidden entrance behind a staircase, but it also has a 2,100-square-foot balcony with dreamy views of the Hollywood Hills. In the middle of this private, urban place is a 10-foot-tall tent with crystal(水晶) lamps and fur carpets. In a city full of stars, you can get a special feeling.
La Valise Tulum, Mexico
If you can’t decide whether you’d prefer to sleep indoors or outdoors, why not book a room that lets you do both in the same bed? Such is the feature of the Master Suite at this property in Tulum. The king-size bed can be rolled out onto the Caribbean Sea-facing balcony for a night under the stars or rolled in for a more private experience.
