You can never have too many options when it comes to independent hotels, right? And in a world where big chains are trying to trick travelers with their trendy “wannabe independent” hotel chains (think Aloft or Curio), it’s hard to tell which are TRULY independent.
INDEPENDENT HOTEL = A HOTEL THAT IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH A CHAIN BRAND, AT. ALL. They play by their own rules, march to the beat of their own drum, and give you the BEST experience while making you feel like a local.
