Everyone has their own criteria for what makes a hotel stay exceptional—be it the fruit bowl in the suite, plush in-room slippers, or five-star toiletries. But one universally beloved detail often defines the in-room experience: the bathrobe. Is it soft and breathable? Towel-textured or silky smooth? Are there pockets? Sleeves that hit just right? When done well, a robe can elevate a stay from good to unforgettable.
In true HAP fashion, we’ve rounded up eight of the chicest hotel bathrobes we’ve seen—fashion-forward, cozy ensembles that make post-shower lounging feel like a full-on luxury moment.
Hotel Genevieve (Louisville, Kentucky)
In true Bunkhouse style, Hotel Genevieve’s bathrobe is as design-forward as the property itself. The handwoven, 100% cotton kimono-style robe features a flattering waist tie, roomy pockets, and a peach-toned palette accented by sky-blue trim. A bold geometric pattern adds an extra dose of visual interest, making this robe as photo-worthy as it is comfortable.
The Siren (Detroit, Michigan)
The Siren Robe takes a far more classic approach compared to this Motor City icon’s sultry interior blueprint. Crafted from ultra-plush, cloud-soft fabric, it’s the best post-bath companion for chilly Midwest winters. We’re especially fond of the signature rose hue and oxblood piping.
Hotel Marina Riviera (Big Bear, California)
At Big Bear’s lakeside Hotel Marina Riviera, guests slip into the Finery Kimono Robe—a custom-dyed sage green shade by LA’s Min Lee and Greg Sato. Inspired by the surrounding pines and mountains, the airy Oxford cotton robe features Casetta’s signature flower emblem in Klein blue, stitched close to the heart.
Hotel Saint Cecilia (Austin, Texas)
Another Bunkhouse darling, Austin’s Hotel Saint Cecilia nails the robe game with a kimono-style stunner tailored from indigo-dipped cotton. Inspired by traditional Japanese yukatas, the fabric combines block printing and batik techniques to create a one-of-a-kind paisley and snowflake motif. Artsy, cozy, and effortlessly cool—just like the stay itself.
Park Lane Hotel (Central Park South, NYC)
The name of the game at Park Lane New York? Plush. In a leafy green tint, these uber-soft robes perfectly complement its Central Park South address, just steps from the city’s iconic outdoor arena. A playful diamond pattern and double front pockets lend a casual flair to post-shower endeavors.
The Twenty Two (Flatiron, NYC)
Sophisticated—that’s the word that comes to mind when you think of The Twenty Two New York, a private members’ club and chic hotel. Cloaked in a simple white with black accents, this bathrobe features full-length sleeves, a belt, and a sumptuous fabric so inviting, you might never want to leave your room. And the sleek “22” logo, etched into the sleeve and flipped up just so, completes it with a dose of elegance.
Hotel Peter & Paul (New Orleans, Louisiana)
The Ash World Hotels have a true talent for interior aesthetics, and New Orleans’ Hotel Peter & Paul is no exception. Checkered patterns adorn the sheets, curtains, and upholstery inside these former convent-turned-guest rooms. The Peter & Paul robe enhances the synchronized look with lightweight, breezy robes printed in iconic oversized gingham.
Eastwind Olivera (Big Indian, New York)
Cabin-core style in the heart of the Catskills—that’s precisely what Eastwind Oliverea is all about. The property’s pullover poncho robe, crafted from a towel-textured fabric, is made for slipping on after a dip in the year-round heated pool, a cold plunge, a post-sauna unwind, or a lazy hammock hang. Its monochromatic, geometric print gives it a stylish edge, too.
