Housed inside a beautifully restored historic bank building, The Waymark blends Chattanooga's past with modern design, comfortable accommodations, and a central location that makes exploring the city easy. During my five-day stay, it served as the perfect home base for visiting attractions like the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway, the Chattanooga Zoo, and the city's scenic riverfront.

Mwasi Healing & Restoration Center is a Black-owned riad just outside the medina of Marrakech, offering spacious rooms, a full spa and hammam, on-site dining, and quiet spaces to rest and reset. Created as a place of restoration and care, it’s a beautiful respite for Black travelers visiting Morocco.

Hotel Ändra is roughly a 25 minute drive from Sea Tac Airport, has plenty of great food options nearby, including Lola immediately downstairs in the lobby, and it’s not far from favorite attractions like Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, Seattle Waterfront and more. If that hasn’t sold you, it is also incredibly chic and cozy.
