3 New Hotels Perfect For A Personal Reset, From Hollywood to Hawaii

Conde Nast Traveler's hot list is our definitive take

on the best hotel openings from around the world.

The types of properties that travelers book entire trips

around for their food,

design and location.

For the second installment of our Capital One video series,

we are highlighting three

of our favorite new hotels out West.

Whether one of the world's most glamorous cities,

the wide openness of the American West

or a taste of Island life in Hawaii.

Across the country,

one hotel shows it is possible

to marry sustainable mindedness

with urban sophistication.

For their West coast debut.

the Thought Leading brand brought their neutral toned,

biofilic interiors to West Hollywood.

The common spaces are beautiful and calming.

You would not even know

that almost everything is upcycled,

including the carpets which are made

from repurposed sea plastics.

Of all the white on white rooms,

ask for one in the skyline category

for knockout views of downtown Los Angeles.

If you don't splurge for a room with a view,

be sure to visit Harriet's Rooftop,

one of the hotels for pulaces to eat and drink,

where you can watch a rose colored LA sunset

with tequila cocktails in hand

and plates of fresh California cuisine.

Not far from Salt Lake City in Utah,

the Lodge at Blue Sky has exactly

what every traveler needs right now.

Wide open spaces,

comfortable isolation,

and the chance to properly reset.

All with the stunning views

of the Uinta mountains.

The retreat does a nice job

of blending into its environment.

Using local lime stones

and earthy tones throughout.

Though you may be tempted to sink

into the couches with some

of the hotel's signature new mountain cuisine influenced

by Navajo cooking and stare out

those floor to ceiling windows all day,

the real draw is on the other side of the glass.

Across the 3,500 acres that the resort anchors,

there is access to heli skiing in the winter

and fly fishing in the summer.

The horse programming is huge here,

and guests can take one of the horses

through the sage scented hills

or stick to the arena and learn the specifics

of the Spanish Vaquero riding style.

Last, we visited the Moana Lani

from Auberge resorts in Hawaii.

This iconic Big Island resort was given new life

when it reopened with a top

to toe renovation early this year,

Longtime guests will still be greeted

with the familiar,

friendly Aloha,

but we'll step into a newly designed open air lobby

that allows that sweet smelling ocean breeze

to drift through the property.

What we love about the retreat is its focus

on the natural environment.

Guests and learn about turtle conservation,

pick up a board and hit the waves

at the onsite surf shack,

or get to school on all aspects of Hawaiian culture.

Though, if you'd prefer to just lay by the pool all day,

that's perfectly encouraged too.

The rooms are smartly done

in a subtle neutral palette to really make those green

and blue views of the grounds and the Pacific pop.

The Island narrative carries throughout the hotel

to the decor of the bar

and the fresh fruits and seafood served throughout.

Here, you never have to leave the hotel

to feel completely immersed in all things, Hawaii.

The best hotels are the ones that give travelers

a total break from real life

through their food,

their design and their activities.

Checking into any of these three hotels

for even a short time can help you properly reset

in ways you won't even realize you needed to,

but trust us,

you'll be grateful for it.
