There’s nothing like getting cozy with it. You know the drill. Sitting by a big roaring fire with a hot toddy (whatever that really is). Lighting up the expensive, quality candles that are burning at $100/hour – because you’re worth it. Not to mention, the excuse to eat your face off, when it’s totally acceptable to order pasta, bread and French fries, all in the same meal. Fall can just be a good excuse to build up your winter layers and live a little. For when that occasion inspires you, these are the hotels that do cozy right.
