Top Ten Luxury
Bestseller Hotels
Ahh... the joy of curling up on a sun-lounger with a good bestseller. Whether your tome of choice is an airport blockbuster or a literary classic, you don't have to weigh down your luggage with heavy holiday reads. Here are ten hotels where the term 'book-in' has a whole new meaning.
 
Luxe footnote: Hotel Gansevoort, NYC was the first to offer complimentary Sony e-readers by the pool. Book lovers should head for Hay-on-Wye in England known as 'book central' because of its 30-plus bookshops.
