The properties, owned by American Casino and Entertainment Properties, will be part of the BW Premier Collection — the Best Western brand launched in 2015.

“It’s a very exciting day for Best Western Hotels and Resorts as we will now offer two new and thrilling travel destinations for our loyal guests,” said Ron Pohl, senior vice president and chief operating officer, Best Western Hotels and Resorts. “Whether you’re looking for exhilarating sights and gaming options, world-class dining and entertainment at your fingertips or just an unforgettable guest stay, these hotels provide it all.”

The Stratosphere, opened in 1996, remains the tallest structure on the Las Vegas skyline, rising 1,149 feet above the desert floor. It’s the tallest observation tower in the United States and offers visitors 360-degree views of the Strip in addition to a variety of thrill rides like Big Shot!, Insanity and X-Scream. The top deck offers live entertainment, dining, shopping and two rooftop swimming pools.

Aquarius Casino Resort in Laughlin, Nev., offers a large-scale experience. The casino is one of the most feature-rich gaming resorts in the city with 1,906 suites, a 57,000-square-foot casino, restaurants and entertainment.

Head to Jackson Hole and Revel in the Remote Possibilities

For a city girl like me, stepping into the town square of Jackson, in northwest Wyoming, felt like walking onto a slicker set of the television show Gunsmoke. Wooden sawtooth facades surround Jackson’s Town Square (a.k.a. George Washington Memorial Park). Visitors stroll the boardwalk connecting the Western-style buildings, each with a large window displaying goods, restaurants and art galleries. Iconic arches, assembled with discarded elk antlers from nearby National Elk Refuge, perch on each corner of the town square. Stagecoaches pulled by teams of horses parade other city-dwellers around the park.
