AMERICA opens new horizons.
The famous explorer Christopher Columbus crossed the Atlantic Ocean to map the New World, but also opened the ''American Dream''. Since then America has expanded its horizons from umbrella- peppered beaches to snow-capped mountains. America is anything but a monolithic face and instead it is near 50 destinations to hop to, from a very quick-change New York only 2,500 miles to pulsating Los Angeles and onwards to the powder-white Hawaiian coast.
 

EASTERN USA
Expanding in all directions America is better to start with the eastern coast. The heart of the country lies there in-between culturally diverse New York and influential Washington. Culture buffs usually pour into New York for its tight package of attractions looking for New York Hotels nearby the world famous Statue of Liberty, 102-story Empire State Building and historic Times Square. Within a walking distance of these sites Midtown Manhattan won the majority of overnight guests and that has lifted the hotel welcomes in New York to the highest level.

If Washington takes a back seat to the culture in New York, it is a cradle of politicking in America. Along with power stands the beauty of the world's first ever planned capital. George Washington chose the site for the capital and laid it out for government. Easy to navigate on foot, Washington doesn't demand a stay in the very center to bring you to heart of the city. As tourists flock to the city for its history, they usually choose one of the Washington hotels in Downtown, north of the White House, but business is done east of it, with a cluster of hotels between the White House and the Washington Convention Center.

Following the eastern American giants is fun-filled Florida with all destinations geared to sun and sand. Miami will introduce you to the sandy beaches and crystal-clear water if you choose a waterfront hotel near well-known South Beach for the very best of your stay with Booked.net.

 

MIDWEST
Unfairly regarded as a stop-off en-route to areas more rich in culture, the Midwest can make you eat those words of assessment with some top destinations in the region. Just imagine that by approaching the famous Michigan Lake, you face Chicago, the birthplace of the world's first skyscrapers and jazz ever played. It means that in Chicago its unique lifestyle goes hand-in-hand with a set of attractions like the Museum Campus or Lincoln Park Zoo. Anyway, there is only one way to kill two birds with one stone – a hotel in downtown. Dining and culture sit side-by-side with Chicago hotels ranging from top-end to budget properties.

Chicago shares the top of travel lists with New Orleans, famous for its Bourbon Street rocking at night with jazz, alcohol and live music. After day turns to night New Orleans gets its second wind with events complemented by the beautiful St. Louis Cathedral and the city’s 19th century French Quarter. Staying in the Quarter or the Garden District will place you in close proximity to the main attractions in New Orleans.

 

WESTERN USA
When comes to America's west your first stop should be Las Vegas. A giant of the gambling business, this city offers more fun than Chicago and New Orleans put together. Even if gambling is not your thing, Las Vegas will keep you captivated with its great shopping and world-class dining. But when it comes to a hotel to stay in Las Vegas, there is excitement in the world's only Hooters Casino Hotel. Otherwise, consider a room close to Las Vegas Boulevard to place you in the very heart of the city.

If Las Vegas rocks by night, Seattle does by day. Since the city jumped on the bandwagon of antipollution, it became known as the Emerald City for its green facade. Alongside the pollution- free environment is a vibrant live music scene and a slice of culture like the Art Deco Smith Tower and the tallest building in the Pacific Northwest, the Columbia Center. Along with culture, Seattle is home to big business, such as Boeing's aircraft plants, Microsoft and Amazon.com. In fact, Seattle is all about business and that makes its Seattle hotels in Bellevue a perfect base to start your business dealings in the city.

What is Western USA without a visit to California? California is home to excellent destinations and is the heartbeat of the west. There is no other place to live like celebrities do than in Hollywood. Booked.net places the rich and famous in “La-la land”, or Los Angeles, at your fingertips. No matter what travel type you are, we advise you visit the three fascinating boulevards - Sunset Boulevard, Hollywood Boulevard, and Melrose Avenue or it is better to find a place to stay nearby. A hotel right in the very heart of Hollywood...is there better chance to rub shoulders with the famous?

 
Your dreams come true in America if you rely on Booked.net for your stay.
