If you're looking for a hotel that sends the right message to your significant other this Valentine's Day, TripAdvisor is ready to play cupid.
The travel Web site has released its list of the top 10 sexiest hotels in America, based on the ratings of its editors and travelers. The list covers everything from seductive city dwellings to bewitching beach-side escapes and everything in between.
"Whether couples are looking for a great value Valentine's getaway or a once-in-a-lifetime luxury escape, TripAdvisor travelers recommend these hotels for a memorable romantic retreat," said Christine Petersen, chief marketing officer for TripAdvisor.
TripAdvisor site data also revealed that Las Vegas, New York City and Miami boast the most sizzling hotels in the U.S., based on the "sexy index," calculating the number of times that travelers use the term "sexy" in their candid TripAdvisor reviews.
All three cities have hotels on the list, with New York apparently the sexiest overall with three different hotels, including the No. 1 entry, making the cut.
The top 10 list of "sexiest U.S. hotels" includes:
No. 10: James Chicago -- Chicago
Average Nightly Rate: $246
Set in the heart of Chicago's famous Magnificent Mile, this hotel's modern design oozes sophistication and sex-appeal. Guest rooms feature dark wood platform beds and white leather furnishings -- and if these (or your partner) aren't enough to get you drooling, the cookie left on your pillow as part of the nightly turn-down service should do the trick. "Nice big sexy boutique-style rooms," comments one TripAdvisor traveler.
No. 9: The Library Hotel -- New York City
Average Nightly Rate: $338
This boutique hotel on Madison Avenue offers its guests a world first: over 6,000 volumes of books organized throughout the property by the Dewey classification System. Sceptical that literature can set your pulse racing? Think again -- room 800.001 is packed with erotic tomes, including Casanova's autobiography, while room 1100.006 is adorned with books on love and relationships. "We had the erotic literature room and were surprised by the quality of books that we found," reveals one TripAdvisor traveler.
No 8: Glenn Hotel -- Atlanta, Ga.
Average Nightly Rate: $253
Follow the grass-lined hallways to the guest rooms, and travelers will be met with sleek design, comfortable furnishings and a shower featuring a peek-a-boo view in to the bedroom. In the words of one TripAdvisor traveler, "I loved the little window from the bathroom into the bedroom: this is definitely a great hotel for young couples, or for older couples who want to feel young again!"
No. 7: Hotel on Rivington -- New York City
Average Nightly Rate: $393
This hotel offers stunning views of Manhattan, with each room boasting floor-to-ceiling glass walls -- but the vistas aren't the only thing that will appeal to amorous guests. As one TripAdvisor traveler notes, "From the unconventional layout, to the glass curtain walling, to the voyeuristic shower walls, everything about this place screams hedonistic pleasure."
No. 6: The Setai -- Miami
Average Nightly Rate: $826
If money is no object, this stunning oceanfront resort in the heart of South Beach offers a spectacularly seductive spot. Guest rooms boast a modern, Asian-influenced design, and feature black granite baths, rainfall showers and mood-lighting, to add romance at the touch of a button. The sunken pods in the outdoor courtyard also make an alluring retreat, with one TripAdvisor traveler commenting, "Very romantic setting outside with many comfortable and secluded sitting areas -- very sexy."
No. 5: The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino -- Las Vegas
Average Nightly Rate: $197
Where better for travelers to unleash their sexy side than in the original Sin City? The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino offers all the trappings to bring out travelers' wild sides, including a room service menu featuring an array of lingerie and after-dark accessories. As one TripAdvisor traveler suggests, "Don't bring kids... The mood is sexy and friendly and the music makes it a party atmosphere at all times."
No. 4: Hotel Lucia -- Portland, Ore.
