Posted by Ash K on Thursday, January 19, 2012 5

Staying in a beautiful hotel room does not need to be expensive. There are many amazing hotels that will set you back less than $100 per night! Whether you’re looking to get back to nature, enjoy the night-life of a bustling city, or experience a more exotic destination, the hotel you’re looking for is right here.

Stratosphere Hotel & Casino:

Hotels in Las Vegas are known for providing great value, but this one is hands-down the best we’ve heard about. The Stratosphere's 1,149-foot Tower is a well-known feature of the Las Vegas skyline, and is actually the tallest free-standing observation deck in the United States. Inside you’ll find a nightclub, a revolving restaurant with stunning 360-degree views of Las Vegas, and Sky Jump Las Vegas, where you can experience bungee jumping! The hotel has a state-of the art casino, two swimming pools, live entertainment, several bars and restaurants, shops, and a luxurious spa. Rooms start at $29.99 with unlimited access to the Tower, but you can upgrade to a room with a view of the Las Vegas strip for a whopping $41.25 per night!

Graycote Inn

For a relaxing retreat on the Eastern seaboard, this old country inn should probably cost a lot more. Located in Bar Harbor, Maine, you’ll be within walking distance of the picturesque New England seaport, where you can watch the fishing boats or book a whale watching tour. Local restaurants will feature the freshest seafood – the daily catch! And nature lovers will love exploring the Acadia National Park, which is only a five-minute drive away. The Inn is eco-friendly, employing composting, recycling, and water conservation practices. Each room is different, so yours may include a canopy bed, fireplace, balcony, or private sunroom. Graycote Inn even provides free WiFi and daily breakfast, which features organic coffee and local produce. Rooms start at only $85 per night!

Sawtooth Hotel

Get back to nature and book your stay at this historic, country log cabin in Stanley, Idaho. The picture-perfect Sawtooth Mountains create a breathtaking backdrop for this unusual hotel, which was established in 1931. So rugged was the climate, and so remote was its location, that it operated solely during the summer months until 1964. Today, you can book a room in this unique hotel and enjoy the great outdoors year-round. During the summertime, check out one of the local music festivals, or enjoy whitewater rafting, hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, fishing, or relaxing in the local hot springs. During the winter months, you can participate in Nordic or backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, ice-skating, or simply enjoy the warmth of Sawtooth Hotel’s crackling fireplace. Private rooms with heated floors and mountain views are only $95 per night.

Estalgem da Ponta do Soi

Planning a trip to Europe? Check out this budget-friendly hotel in Portugal. Built on top of a cliff overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the fishing village of Ponta Do Sol, this hotel is said to be situated on the sunniest spot on the island of Madeira. The property is actually a completely renovated farmhouse. Your room, tastefully decorated with traditional blue tiles, local reclaimed wood and stone work, comes with access to the hotel's infinity pool overlooking the ocean, gym, spa, and sauna. It's hard to believe that rooms at Estalgem da Ponta do Soi start at only $71 per night.

Dream Hotel

Did you ever think you could stay at a five-star hotel for less than $100 per night? We didn’t think so either, until we heard about Dream Hotel in Bangkok, Thailand. Centrally located near many popular tourist attractions, a variety of shopping venues, restaurants, and nightlife, this hotel will wrap you in luxury while you enjoy the exotic “Land of Smiles.” Rooms feature 42” plasma TVs with DVD player, high-speed internet, a personal iPod Nano to use during your stay, a fully stocked mini-bar including Veuve-Clicquot Ponsardin Champagne, Egyptian cotton sheets, and allergen-free duvet covers. The hotel also offers a lavish rooftop swimming pool, gym, spa, valet parking, and butler service. Imagine having a butler at your service for only $75 per night!
