I spent a night in Vancouver's 'castle in the city.' My $320 room was average, but the hotel was worth it.

From 2005 to 2008, Disney Channel's "The Suite Life of Zack & Cody" was my favorite TV show on air. So you can imagine my excitement when I found myself standing in front of the Tipton Hotel 20 years later. Except it wasn't the Tipton Hotel - the fictional hotel's exterior is actually the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, in British Columbia, Canada.

The dreaded minibar has been both a blessing and a curse to the tired traveler, providing a quick fix when needed but often charging an astronomical amount for otherwise inexpensive items.
