General Accommodations Information
First-time visitors to the United States from other countries may find some of the accommodations a little different to what they may be used to in other parts of the world. The largest type of accommodations found in the U.S. would be hotels and motels. Rather than make specific recommendations and suggestions on this page, just click on US Hotel Chains or check the suggestions in each state page of Getting Away.

There is no national rating system for accommodations in the United States. However, you will find that all of the chain accommodations companies have several different types of properties to suit any budget or need. For an example, check the different types of properties offered by Marriott by clicking here.

My preferred hotel chain is Marriott. I have stayed Residence Inns, which are prefect for longer stays with all the comforts of home; Spring Hill Suites, which I have found nice for longer stays as the have up to 25% more room than comparably priced rooms; Towne Place Suites, again when I want more room or am on a longer stay; Courtyard by Marriott, which has everything the business traveler needs, as well as families; Courtyard, Fairfield Inn, which I find spacious, comfortable and affordable. Another great idea is to stay at one of the JW Marriott Hotels & Resorts where you can enjoy a new dimension for your vacation or holiday. Another of their great properties is  Renaissance Hotels & Resorts where you always find consistent quality and service. I have also stayed at some of their Vacation Club properties and have enjoyed each visit. AAA members can get discount rates at Marriott, as can Seniors.
