With most of the country still under shelter-in-place guidance, even the most avid travelers and habitual wanderlusters are spending countless hours inside their own homes. We're dreaming about, and planning for, the time when it's safe to travel again, likely sustaining ourselves on travel memories from more carefree times.

For my part, I'm dreaming of days spent enveloped in the comfort and indulgence of some of my favorite hotels around the world. I'm burning my sumptuous Aman candle, sliding around in a pair of slippers once monogrammed for me by the Beverly Wilshire, and drinking copious Vanderpump rose from a bottle Lisa Vanderpump autographed at the opening of her Caesars Palace lounge venue — all in attempts to channel those hotel vibes.

Until travel resumes, you too can turn your home into the closest facsimile possible of a dazzling hotel experience with some thoughtfully curated (and mostly affordable) upgrades.
