Where do you stay when it’s time to take your office on the road? Here is a quick peek at a few spots across the globe that feature some of our most work- (and rest-) friendly pieces in a variety of hotel settings.

I love this roundup! I see knock-off HM pieces in just about every hotel I stay in, so it’s nice to know that there are still accommodations with legit pieces!

Check out the Pan Pacific, Seattle for Mirras and/or Aerons in each guest room as well and our seating in their conference spaces. They have wonderful views of the Space Needle and South Lake Union from many rooms as well. I use this walkable location whenever Herman Miller guest come to visit our beautiful city and everyone appreciated their attention to details. Enjoy…

The Pearl Hotel in San Diego has Eames chairs in each of their guest rooms – adorable little boutique hotel on a budget but still high on design!

Thanks, Jana and Heather, for the recommendations. They both sound lovely…

San Jose Motel, in Austin Texas has Eames Fiberglass side shells in each of its tasteful guest rooms.
