There are hotel amenities and then there are hotel amenities. Skip the welcome cookies or the free snacks in the minibar. These are the best luxury hotel perks you’ll find anywhere, designed to cater to travelers’ most common (and simultaneously extravagant) needs while on the go, from event tickets to safari tools.

 

Luxury Cars

It’s becoming more common for luxury properties to offer guests luxury cars during their stay. If you book a top suite at Nantucket’s White Elephant or The Wauwinet, you’ll receive keys to your own 2019 BMW to use privately throughout your stay. If BMW automobiles are not your style, you can take the keys to a Lexus when you stay in Tennessee at the luxury, remote Blackberry Mountain.

 

Exclusive Tickets

Hotel concierges can always pull a few strings, and that’s certainly true when it comes to getting guests into great events. If you book a stay at the Royal Mansour in Morocco, you’ll get exclusive, complimentary tickets to the YSL Museum, thanks to the property’s partnership with the Yves Saint Laurent-Pierre Berge Foundation.

 

Swarovski Binoculars

If you stay at any andBeyond lodge, you’ll not get just any old pair of binoculars to peer out at the surrounding wildlife. andBeyond and Swarovski Optik offer a specially created pair of custom CL Companion 8×30 binoculars available just at andBeyond lodges. You’ll enjoy a jitter-free viewing experience and, if you stay at andBeyond Sandibe Okavango Safari Lodge in Botswana, you’ll have an even more exclusive pair, outfitted to handle even the roughest terrain.
