“For a once-in-a-lifetime road trip, you can’t get more iconic than Route 66. Starting in Chicago or Los Angeles, grab a classic car – we’ll take a Mustang or a Chevy, thanks – and set out on an epic journey that’ll take you through big cities, atmospheric highway towns and wide-open countryside. Don’t forget to stop off at the old-school diners and restored gas stations to refill your tank and your tummy. These five hotels are perfect for an overnight stay along the way…<\/p>\n

Chicago Athletic Association, Chicago
————————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kick off your road trip with a Greek-American breakfast at Lou Mitchell’s Restaurant in Chicago, where Route 66 begins. On the banks of Lake Michigan, the city of skyscrapers is home to the world’s tallest building, but it’s the culture of big hitting sportsmen and blues musicians that really puts Chicago on the map. The Chicago Athletic Association<\/a> is a historic downtown hotel and monument to the big shouldered, switch-hitting spirit that defines the spirit of Route 66’s first city.<\/p>\n

The Mayo Hotel, Tulsa, Oklahoma
——————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Rising out of a 1920s-30s oil boom, Tulsa is a dynamic city famous for exceptional dining, love of the arts and art deco architecture. Get straight to the heart of it at the downtown Blue Dome Entertainment district, which is centred around a revitalized 1920s-era Gulf Oil station. The area is credited as the birthplace of Western Swing, and is famous for its eateries and nightlife. For your overnight, head to the glamorous Art Deco Mayo Hotel<\/a>. Built in 1925, it makes you feel like part of the Great Gatsby; a glitzy stay that’s perfect for soaking up Tulsa’s history.<\/p>\n

La Posada Hotel, Holbrook, Arizona
———————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Holbrook began as a town of railroaders and cattlemen, outlaws and rugged lawmen. In the 1920s, Fred Harvey, famed for civilizing the west by bringing linen, silverware and impeccable service to railroad travel, built La Posada<\/a> – literally, ‘the resting place’ – here. In the heart of Navajo County, this diverse community still has a feel of transience; people from all walks of life visit, and the hotel’s famous guests have included Franklin D. Roosevelt, Amelia Earhart, John Wayne and Albert Einstein.<\/p>\n

Grand Canyon Railway Hotel, Grand Canyon, Arizona
————————————————–<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Just a block away from Route 66, The Grand Canyon Railway Hotel<\/a> is the gateway to one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Steeped in history, the hotel was once a lodging for passengers of the Santa Fe Railway system during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today you can board a restored railway car in the station right next to the hotel, and ride it right into the heart of the Grand Canyon. It’s a fabulous way to experience one of America’s most famous natural sights.<\/p>\n

The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa, Riverside, California
—————————————————<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Route 66 ends in the Golden State, California. As it passes Riverside, you’ll find the suitably luxe Mission Inn Hotel & Spa<\/a>, which delivers more than just a touch of LA glamour; past guests include Roosevelt, Helen Keller, Judy Garland, Bette Davis and Tom Hanks. It has been used as a set for Hollywood movies, and is something of a museum – have a look at the 18th century 18-karat gold Rayas Altarpiece and Tiffany stained glass panels in the St. Francis of Assisi chapel.<\/p>\n
