But if I can find lodging with a bookish flare, well then I\u2019m in seventh heaven. Check out these five unique hotels around the world that every book lover should make a point of checking into.<\/p>\n<h2>Hotel Friedenau, Berlin, Germany<\/h2>\n<p>This literary Berlin hotel is owned by an author, Christa Moog, and takes its name from Christoph Meckel\u2019s Bockshorn in Friedenau. Each room is designed to honor a different writer, and the d\u00e9cor features photos, manuscripts, letters, and drawings that give a rare glimpse into their lives. The hotel staff is knowledgeable about Berlin\u2019s rich literary history and they are quick to suggest other bookish sites in the city that you might want to visit.<\/p>\n<h2>The Library Hotel, New York, USA<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" style=\"background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 658px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);\" data-instgrm-version=\"7\">\n<div style=\"padding: 8px;\">\n<div style=\"background: #F8F8F8; line-height: 0; margin-top: 40px; padding: 41.01851851851852% 0; text-align: center; width: 100%;\"><\/div>\n<p style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px; margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 8px; overflow: hidden; padding: 8px 0 7px; text-align: center; text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: nowrap;\"><a style=\"color: #c9c8cd; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BMRvu1FAqt-\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by @libraryhotel<\/a> on <time style=\"font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 17px;\" datetime=\"2016-11-01T18:17:09+00:00\">Nov 1, 2016 at 11:17am PDT<\/time><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script src=\"\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\" async=\"\" defer=\"defer\"><\/script><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/flights\/cheap-flights-to-new-york-city-nyc-new-york\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York<\/a>\u2019s Library Hotel is every design-conscious bibliophile\u2019s dream. From the impeccable d\u00e9cor to the well-stocked library, there are plenty of things to love about this literary hideaway.

Each room is labeled with a different letter of the alphabet that stands for a European literary giant (P is for Proust, S is for Shakespeare, etc.). As one might expect, the hotel also has a library where guests can brush up on their European literary history. To enhance your Parisian literary experience, eat at Les Deux Magots (a famous restaurant in Saint-Germain-des-Pr\u00e8s) where literati gathered in the first part of the 20th century. Then stop at Shakespeare and Company, an English-language bookstore on the Left Bank, and grab some tomes for the plane ride home.<\/p>\n<h2>Club Frances, Buenos Aires, Argentina<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/miles-away\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Untitled-design-54.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-97190717\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/miles-away\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Untitled-design-54.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/miles-away\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Untitled-design-54.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/miles-away\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Untitled-design-54-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cheapoair.com\/miles-away\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/Untitled-design-54-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The stunning Club Frances started as a literary club in 1866.

Shared bathrooms, communal reading and socializing couches mean that you can escape into a book without feeling alone. And at 3,500 yen (approx. $35) per night, it comes at a price that&#8217;s hard to beat.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Want to feed the book lover in you?
