3/ PARIS, FRANCE

📆 September 2025

the memories…

Le Meridien Paris Arc de Triomphe – A stylish, modern stay surrounded by cute neighborhood cafès

Le Méridien Paris is sleek, walkable, and perfectly positioned for exploring the 17th arrondissement. Comfortable rooms, a great breakfast, and an easy stroll to cafés, shops, and the Champs-Élysées make it a favorite home base for a Paris getaway. We stayed here and loved it for a Paris in the Fall girls’ trip.

4 / HEALDSBURG, SONOMA VALLEY, CALIFORNIA

📆 October 2025

the memories…

Hotel Trio Healdsburg – Your Comfy Sonoma Apartment

Hotel Trio Healdsburg is the BEST hotel for your Sonoma vacation… you have a kitchen, sitting area, bed, and huge bathroom making this spacious room more like an apartment than a hotel room. It’s right across the street from Big John’s, the BEST grocery store on the planet, and minutes away from downtown Healdsburg. We’ve stayed many different spots – many more expensive – and this is by far my favorite hotel in my favorite California Wine Country town. I’d move in, if they’d let me!

5 / COLUMBIA, SOUTH CAROLINA

📆 August 2025

the memories…

Downtown Columbia, SC Moxy Marriott – Walk to Soda City Market + Capitol Views

This social hotel is the most fun place to say if you don’t have kids – a bar and taco food truck in the lobby, a bar on the rooftop, and a mesmerizing sand table will keep you entertained for hours. The rooms are efficiently compact with enough quirky details to make it a unique stay plus you have views of the South Carolina Capitol out of your window. We LOVE LOVE LOVE Soda City Market and this hotel is right in the middle of it.

6 / ATLANTA, GEORGIA

📆 August 2025

the memories…

Atlanta Marriott Marquis

We’ve stayed at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis many times to walk to the Mercedes Benz center for special events – we love that we can walk to the Aquarium, restaurants, special events. The hotel rooms are pretty spacious, the restaurant has a great buffet, and the bar is great for a nightcap. The fitness area is pretty large, too. Great choice if you’re visiting ATL and want a downtown hotel!

AC Hotel in Savannah – Waterfront, cool rooftop bar + walkable to everything

We stayed at the AC Hotel on a trip to Savannah – and this is definitely the hotel we’ll be booking when we visit again. This hotel is right on the waterfront with a cool rooftop venue for cocktails and breakfast, and you can walk down the historic cobblestone streets for shopping and restaurants. We walked everywhere – including a Ghost Tour Pub Crawl – and back to our hotel.
