Treat yourself with these luxury-hotel-inspired products

From 1904 through the midcentury, the Hotel Astor was one of the best places to see and be seen in New York City, even earning mention in Cole Porter's 1939 tune "Well, Did You Evah!" Its mens-only bar earned a deputation not only as a sophisticated hangout where the likes of Mark Twain and Buffalo Bill were known to have a tipple, , but also a discreet meeting place for members of the LGBTQIA+ set. Though the Astor was demolished in 1967, it lives on in memory, and in these gorgeous reproduction whiskey tumblers from The History Company. They pair of highballs are made of 1-pound of lead-free crystal and are dishwasher safe.

Missing those perfectly plump hotel pillows that are always more epic than the set you have at home? Sable Pillow's Hotel Collection is just the thing. They're made of memory foam for that custom fit. Instead of a big block of foam, however, Sable cleverly shreds it, making this ultra-adjustable like your favorite fluffy down pillows. The shredded low-VOC foam is wrapped in a removable bamboo fiber shell that's easy to clean, with a sturdy YKK zipper that will last for years. Throw on a fresh, crisp case and you'll feel like you just checked in to your own bedroom.

There's nothing like getting to wrap yourself in luxury bath linens after getting fresh and clean, whether you're home or away. Onsen's ultra-popular waffle towels have become a big hit thanks to good materials and a smart design. They're made from absorbent, lightweight American-grown Supima cotton in an attractive, nubbly waffle weave that's as soft on your bod as it is pretty when you hang it back up.

 

According to a survey by a German spa of what items most frequently go missing from hotels, German and British guests in particular tend to take the hotel toiletries. Between travel restrictions on liquids and gels and hotels stocking salon-quality goodies, we don't blame travelers for wanting to bring their tiny shampoos and soaps along for the ride. Especially when the product in question is Bliss Spa's Lemon and Sage Soapy Suds, which have been offered by both The W and Aloft Hotels. The vegan and cruelty-free formula has aloe leaf extract and glycerin to keep your skin silky smooth after the suds do their work on any dirt.

 

 

There's no need to strip the bed and stuff your dirty linens in your suitcase before check out when you can just order Marriott's Signature Sheet set online. These 300 thread count sheets boast a 60/40 blend of soft cotton and spun polyester in a percale weaving pattern, by which many hospitality sheet brands swear for its durability and breathability. 

Bringing elements of hotels home can feel like an exercise in luxury, but it doesn't have to be. A fresh, smooth bar of soap like you'd find at many a budget and moderately-priced hotel chain is a simple pleasure – one you can afford to indulge in regularly. Dove's Beauty Bars aren't too drying, and they have that classic soap scent that makes you feel neat and clean.

There's nothing like shrugging on a fresh, white robe when you step out of the hotel shower, hopefully before falling into bed and ordering room service, or popping whatever's chilling in the ice bucket. It's one of the absolute luxuries of the hotel and spa experience, and fortunately one that's easy to recreate at home. This waffled robe by Turquaz is double stitched, with a tailored collar and two pockets in front so you don't lose the remote or your room key – or whatever the at-home equivalent might be.

On the opposite end of the soap spectrum from the Dove Beauty Bar, Bulgari's tea-scented cakes are a total luxury. These refreshing unisex soaps have made an appearance at the Four Seasons and the Grand Hotel in Rome, amongst others. And Bulgari's Au The Vert notes are a veritable travelogue, with Italian Bergamot, Tunisian Bitter Orange, Spanish Orange Blossom, Ceylon Cardamom, Jamaican Pepper, Russian Coriander, BVLGARIan Rose, Egyptian Jasmine, Green Tea, Smoked Wood.

Kimpton Hotels have a unique signature scent – a blend of citrus, green tea, black pepper, clove, and musk that's fresh, contemporary, and a little mysterious. You can bring that vibe into your own space with these simple, attractive candles. The glass vessels are neutral enough to pair with most decor, and the soy wax burns for 80 hours.

Westin Hotels has been selling its own Heavenly Bed mattress since 1999, so you know plenty of guests and fans have seen sheep soaring over this quilted model in the past twenty years. The medium firm support, paired with the pillow top, provides just the right blend of softness and support. With individually-wrapped pocket coils and motion isolation, you won't bounce your partner (or that pile of in-progress books) out of the spot next to you, either.

There are champagne buckets, and then there are champagne buckets. This hotel-style bucket has a long stand that means you can place it by your bed without worrying about ice in your sheets, by your table, or out on the patio or balcony to have at hand. The design is classic, with simple details and a  stainless steel construction with a mirror finish. The stand is 34" from floor to bucket top, and it holds one bottle.

Hospitality designers typically nail the bed decor game with just the right number of pillows – never cluttered, but just enough to help you sit up and get cozy while you're catching whatever's on cable or tucking into your vacation read. These down throw pillow inserts will give your favorite pillowcases the right amount of structure and plenty of puff when you make the bed. They hold up nicely too, even with daily use, rarely losing a feather.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, unless what happens is discovering these delicious comforters styled after the famous Bellagio (though technically not from Bellagio's own signature collection). With 300 thread count white cotton punctuated with handsome grey embroidery, this slick five-piece set has just the right amount of hotel class. The collection includes one comforter, two shams and two decorative pillows to complete the look – scattered poker chips not included.

One of the pleasures of staying in a hotel is every detail being just right, down to the luggage racks, soap bars, and shower curtain hooks. These neutral, timeless hooks are sturdy enough for daily use, stay bright-white and new looking, and add a touch of historic charm to any bathroom. 

Since the first Ritz-Carlton hotel opened in New York City in 1911, "the Ritz" has become synonymous with luxury, from F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Diamond as Big as the Ritz to Ritz crackers, branded by Nabisco during the Great Depression to invoke upper-crust flair. You can carry on the tradition at home with an official Ritz-Carlton down duvet insert, featuring allergen-free feather fill, a 100% cotton down-proof cover, and a simple box-stitch design to keep all your fluff in place.

One thing hotels definitely have on our everyday bedrooms is that most of us don't have little kettles or coffee makers by the bed for fixing hot drinks. You may still have to schlep to the kitchen to get a cuppa at home, but you can at least drop in one of these lovely Smith Tea sachets. This sampler pack includes Fez, Jasmine Silver Tip, Mao Feng Shui, White Petal, Brahmin, Bungalow, Kandy, Lord Bergamot, Masala Chai, Big Hibiscus, Meadow, Peppermint, and Red Nectar varieties, fresh from Portland, Oregon. Founder Steven Smith's hometown has a lot of pride in his teas, and you'll find them in more than a few boutique hotels across the Beaver State.

There's nothing like a long, slim pillow when you need a little extra support sitting up in bed or between your knees if you're a side sleeper. Westin's chic white lumbar pillow makes a nice graphic line between your pillows and duvet – it's neutral but still makes a statement, and is stuffed with 100% allergy-free fiberfill that won't ruffle any literal or figurative feathers. 

 

It's the little touches that make hotels special, and this hair dryer bag is the perfect detail to make your bathroom (or guest bath!) feel a little more like that in your favorite hotel and protect your styling tools when they aren't in use. Best of all, when you do hit the road again, it's just the thing to keep your cords neat and organized in your luggage.

While you can certainly find a scent diffuser based on your favorite hotelier, Aromatech's bright Hotel blend of citrus, florals, and chill lavender is a divine way to invoke hotels as a concept – rather than one particular destination. The notes include red rose, geranium, eucalyptus and fresh pine, with touches of lemon, orange and juicy peach. 

Last but not least, you need a handsome coffee table book to complete the hotel vibe at home – and bonus points if it's one that has the kind of in-depth local information that hotels often provide to help orient their guests. Lonely Planet's own Secret City volume contains the best little-known sights and things to do, plus the coolest places to eat, drink and shop to create unforgettable trips for 50 different cities from Tokyo to Stockholm. It's the perfect read for cozying up in bed by your champagne bucket, fresh from a shower in your waffle robe.
