It’s likely wine that first comes to mind when you think of Tuscany, but don’t write it off your list if you’re a chocolate lover. In addition to its vineyards, the Tuscan region is home to what’s known as The Chocolate Valley, a picturesque countryside dotted with gourmet shops and small factories dedicated to the craft of chocolate making.

Tips / Travel

Can’t get enough of the good stuff? Indulge in your cravings with a trip to one of these hotels catering to your inner chocoholic.

 

The Milliken Creek Inn & Spa in Napa Valley offers a top-tier chocolate spa experience. The Chocolate Decadence Massage literally covers you in chocolate, with a chocolate mud wrap and hot linens, before you’re massaged with chocolate oils.

 

At Royal Mansour in Marrakech, you can get your hands in on the action by making your own chocolate in the hotel’s chocolate laboratory. Work with the executive chocolate chef to create your own variety and don’t miss a private tour through the chocolate laboratory, as well.

 

The UXUA Casa Hotel and Spa in Brazil features its own cacao trees, from which it makes its own chocolate. You can buy a bar or two to take home (or eat right then), but you can also have it in your ice cream when you visit the hotel’s on-site ice cream parlor. You won’t just find any old chocolate ice cream here, though. The hotel mixes in unusual flavor combinations, like Bahian peppers.

 

Did you know Barcelona is the European birthplace of hot chocolate? Join the staff of Majestic Hotel & Spa on a Chocolate Trail city tour to explore the Gothic Quarter. You can also do workshops with traditional chocolatiers and more modern chocolate shops to try your hand at the craft.

Platform Helps Remote Workers, Business Travelers Find Work-Friendly Hotels

If you’ve ever attempted to work on the go — not necessarily for a business trip, but just because your job offers the flexibility of remote working — you may have struggled with working from your hotel room. Your options are typically plugging your laptop in next to a tiny in-room table, if you’re lucky, or you’re stuck answering emails from your hotel bed — hardly conducive to productivity.
