As of right now, you might not have any trips in the books. You want to travel a lot this year, though, and just need a little spark of inspiration to get things going. After all, you've dreamed about spending a few nights in a beautiful suite with big windows and a balcony, where there are spas and fresh chocolates waiting on your pillow. Where would that be, though? Well, the top hotels in the U.S. for 2019, according to TripAdvisor, are officially here. They're truly stunning and well-worth your consideration.

Let's continue that daydream: You imagine that you'd wake up in the morning and order room service, and soak in a bubble bath while watching the sunrise. You'd wander down to the pool for an afternoon of rest and relaxation, or walk to the restaurants and shops that are nearby — completely forgetting about the excursions and adventures that are beyond the property lines. You'd think to yourself, "Can anyone really blame me? Everything I need and want is right here!"

In fact, if you were staying in one of those stunning locations, it would probably be because you planned your entire trip around the hotel and what it has to offer. That's a vacation in itself, you know? A vacation that you'd gladly plan, assuming all the right pieces fell into place.

Consider this is a sign that this year is the time to book a trip entirely for the hotel experience. TripAdvisor, the biggest travel site in the world, announced the top hotels in the U.S. for 2019, and they're everything that you could ever dream of.
