Stanley Hotel
Then: Stephen King was inspired to write The Shining after relocating his family to this imposing Colorado Rockies hotel built in 1909 (and specifically to room No. 217).
Now: About an hour from Denver, the Stanley offers 138 guest rooms (some recently renovated), daily ghost tours, and a full-service spa in a magnificent building that’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
