Hotel Kitsch: A Colorful Journey Through America's Themed Getaways and Honeymoon Suites

Join Margaret and Corey Bienert, creators of A Pretty Cool Hotel Tour, for an engaging exploration of America’s most whimsical-themed hotels and fantasy suites. This visual journey delves into a vibrant world of unique accommodations, from heart-shaped tubs and seashell beds to space-themed rooms and jungle suites. Discover their fascinating history spanning from the iconic Madonna Inn to the romantic honeymoon retreats of the Poconos, while discussing their cultural significance and their place in society today.

Released in October 2023, Margaret and Corey’s book, Hotel Kitsch, offers an in-depth look at their favorite retro and romance-themed hotels across the U.S. This presentation not only highlights how these themed hotels reflect broader societal trends and nostalgia but also underscores the importance of preserving their quirky charm and rich history in a world that is losing its color.
