Check into this Beetlejuice-inspired suite in the heart of NYC

Looking for a spooky fall escape?

Get ready to say Beetlejuice three times, because this October, you can actually sleep inside his world. Tempo by Hilton Times Square, the sleek hotel in Manhattan’s Theater District, is teaming up with Broadway’s BEETLEJUICE for a spooky-chic suite takeover just in time for the show’s big Broadway return on October 8.

Available October 4-31, the limited-time room transforms the hotel’s clean, modern vibe into a Beetlejuice-themed hideaway. Think black-and-white striped walls and ceilings, a haunting mural of the Maitland Residence hovering above the bed, and gallery-style portraits of your favorite characters lining the living space.

Themed food and exclusive guest perks

The Beetlejuice fun doesn’t stop at the suite door. Downstairs at Highball, the hotel’s bar and lounge, guests can sip on playful themed cocktails and bites created just for the takeover. The star of the menu is the Netherworld Swizzle, a bright slime-green potion with a dark purple layer that nods to the show’s supernatural chaos. Made with Midori, white rum, fresh lime juice, and a hint of Crème de Violette, the drink is a spooky little spell in a glass. A special prix fixe menu will also be available for those who want to pair their drinks with a full Broadway-inspired feast.

Guests who book the BEETLEJUICE Suite get even more treats. Each stay comes with a curated merch package of show-inspired apparel and accessories, a striped welcome sweet (a playful twist on a classic New York treat), and an F&B credit to use during the visit. 

The takeover runs October 4-31, 2025, with a three-night maximum stay, so fans will want to book early to snag a spot.

I stayed at one of Chicago’s most famous luxury hotels — and yes, it still deserves the hype
Ritz-Carlton Chicago

Chicago does luxury hotels exceptionally well. The city has historic grande dames, glossy new towers, and enough five-star addresses to make choosing one surprisingly difficult. Still, The Ritz-Carlton, Chicago remains one of the names travelers hear again and again. Does that reputation still carry the same weight in a city with so much competition?

By the end of my stay, the answer was yes. The hotel repeatedly proved that real luxury is about noticing what a guest needs before they have to ask.

I ate my way through Chicago for a weekend, and these 7 spots were worth every calorie
Brunch, Food, Food Presentation

Chicago is a city that makes a reasonable eating schedule feel unnecessary. Breakfast can spill into lunch, breweries count as afternoon activities, and deep-dish pizza is less of a meal than a commitment you make to yourself.

I recently spent a weekend eating my way across the city, with no real strategy beyond following recommendations, wandering into places that looked interesting, and accepting that vegetables might not be the main priority. Some stops were Chicago institutions. Others were complete accidents. One restaurant was so good that we went twice, despite encountering a line out the door both times.
