Andaz Wall Street (New York City)

Hoping to visit Lady Liberty on your Independence Day visit to NYC? Andaz Wall Street is conveniently located near Battery Park, where the ferries depart for the Statue of Liberty, and boasts a striking design by the Rockwell Group, topped with big, handsome rooms and stylish bathrooms.

Hotel of South Beach (Miami)

Centrally located in a historic Art Deco building, this is a darling little hotel by designer Todd Oldham and developer/hotelier Tony Goldman. Staying at The Hotel of South Beach, and planning on celebrating the Fourth of July? Bring beach chairs and towels to the fun (and free) Fourth of July event beginning at 7 pm on 8th Street and Ocean Drive (fireworks start at 9 pm).

Ink48 (New York City)

Ink48, (named for its location on 48th Street in New York City) is close to the Hudson River and has a beautiful rooftop that offers partial views of the Fourth of July fireworks (shown from 24th to 40th streets). Tickets to the hotel’s private Fourth of July reception include an open bar, hors d'oeuvres and live DJ music. Ink48’s free wine receptions, swanky spa and pet-friendly features make it a great place to stay as well.

InterContinental Miami

If you are planning to visit "America's Birthday Bash" at Bayfront Park in downtown Miami, no hotel is more convenient than the InterContinental Miami. This huge, pink 641-room downtown tower has attentive service, a large pool with a great view of Biscayne Bay, a great “bottomless brunch” at Toro Toro and a fully equipped gym and spa.

JW Marriott Los Angeles

The JW Marriott offers a beautiful pool, great views of downtown LA from the rooftop bar, tons of meeting space and plenty of restaurants. At dusk, head to the nearby Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum for a beautiful (and free) 60-minute fireworks show (Christmas Tree Lane to the east of the Coliseum and the south lawn of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles are the best viewing spots).

W Washington D.C.

It doesn't get much more patriotic than catching the fireworks on the National Mall with the Capitol as a backdrop. W Washington D.C. has a location just 2 blocks from the White House and is a short walk from the Mall. Guests can also catch the show at the hotel's fashionable rooftop bar. The hotel also offers fusion cuisine from Jean-Georges Vongerichten, a great spa and gym, and Whatever/Whenever service.

Wynn Las Vegas

The 2,716-room Wynn Las Vegas, one of the Strip's most extravagant luxury hotels, is also home to the famous club Tryst. Here you can choose to dance your Independence night away, or look out onto the lounge's Lake of Dreams with its 40-foot waterfall. The resort's meticulous design, trendy cuisine, top-quality beds, amazing on-site luxury shopping, and great spa and fitness center give it the reputation it deserves.

W Chicago Lakeshore

Chicago offers a hopping Fourth of July event at Navy Pier with spectacular fireworks (in fact, fireworks shows take place at the pier all summer long). The W Chicago is located on Lake Michigan right next to the pier, and a ticketed event with drinks and hors d'oeuvres is held at its 7th floor WET pool deck that offers views of the fireworks. The hotel's chic decor, stylish indoor pool, Bliss spa and absolutely stunning views of Lake Michigan and Navy Pier (check out the terrace!) make it a popular upscale pick.

Argonaut Hotel (San Francisco)

Pier 39 is the busiest hub for Fourth of July celebrations in San Francisco, with live music during the day and spectacular views of the fireworks over the bay at night. The nearby Argonaut Hotel, converted from an old canning factory and reopened with 252 nautical-themed rooms and suites, is a top option in the area -- some rooms have views of the San Francisco Bay.

Taj Boston

Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular, held on the Esplanade along the Charles River, is one of the most famous Fourth of July celebrations in the country, attracting hundreds of thousands of people each year. The Taj Boston’s location along the Public Garden is super close to the action, and the hotel is one of the most luxurious options in the city.
