Travelers increasingly seek hotels that provide enriching experiences and unique atmospheres instead of just basic accommodations. Expedia's 2025 trends report indicates that one-third of travelers prioritize in-house dining when choosing hotels. Highlighted in the article are destinations like the Waldorf Astoria Osaka, known for its exceptional restaurants, and the rise of museum hotels offering artistic experiences. Such hotels are blending culture and luxury, contributing both to uniqueness in travel and to the fabric of their locales, with projects like the forthcoming Climate Museum hotel in New York City symbolizing this trend.
A phenomenal hotel can shape your vacation—whether you want a quiet retreat after a jet lag-hazy day of museum hopping, or a resort where you can spend a week amid coveted views, restaurants, and experiences without ever leaving the premises.
More and more, travelers want a hotel that adds color, flavor, access, and excitement to a trip, instead of just offering a beige backdrop and a place to crash.
According to Expedia's 2025 trends report, a third of travelers are choosing hotels based on their in-house restaurants.
From the artistic Japanese stay that started it all, to the Climate Museum coming to New York City in 2029 with a 455-room hotel.
