10 best hotels in the US in 2025 named — and three beloved NYC properties made the cut 

It’s time to pack those bags.

Tripadvisor recently shared the winners of its 2025 Travelers’ Choice Awards for the best hotels in the world, with Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya in Akumal, Mexico, claiming the No. 1 spot.

Now, the booking site has revealed the 10 best hotels in the US — and who was America’s favorite? The French Quarter Inn in Charleston, South Carolina.

This southern hotel has over 4,000 reviews with people raving about the place that supposedly gives cookies and milk to its guests before bed.

“The rooms are comfortable and clean, and I love the feel of a small boutique hotel,” boasted one person.

Another guest loved how the staff made their stay special, “taking care of every need and even beyond.”

Rounding out the top three are two hotels in Oregon —  FivePine Lodge and Spa and Atticus Hotel, which were both described as romantic getaways. Travelers also loved how friendly everyone is at these Pacific Northwest lodges.

Thankfully, New York City snagged three spots on the list. The Luma Hotel Times Square came in at No. 5, where travelers raved about the “incredible service at a clean, updated hotel.”

The Evelyn Hotel in Nomad was described as being “perfect for couples or solo travelers.” Others claimed it as a “beautiful, central gem.”

Last but not least, the NYC hotel that managed to claim the 10th spot is The Wallace on the Upper West Side. Guests who have stayed here love the “exceptional service,” the clean, spacious rooms and the “super helpful staff.”
