Mad Men may be over, but the midcentury modern<\/strong><\/em> design trend is still going strong.<\/p>\n

Across the U.S., hotels originally built in the 1950s and \u201960s are being restored as boutique properties where you can feel you\u2019ve stepped back in time, all the while enjoying the modern conveniences you expect. These five hotels are shining examples of midcentury-modern design updated for the 21st century.<\/p>\n

\nPalm Springs, California<\/p>\n

L\u2019Horizon Palm Springs brings back the glamour of Hollywood\u2019s golden age through its unique design esthetic by renowned designer Steve Hermann. The 1950\u2019s gem served as a playground for Hollywood A-Lister\u2019s and U. S. Presidents alike.<\/p>\n

The Watergate Hotel<\/strong>
\nWashington, D.C.<\/p>\n

The name is synonymous with the country\u2019s biggest political scandal. The Watergate Hotel, however, was controversial from the start. When it opened in 1965, celebrity Italian architect Luigi Moretti\u2019s curvy, sprawling design sent shock waves through conservative DC. Despite criticism, the hotel quickly became a playground for the fabulous. Its glamorous reputation was eclipsed with political scandal on June 17, 1972, when five intruders were caught in the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee, leading to Richard Nixon\u2019s resignation.<\/p>\n

Since Nixon infamously declared \u201cI am not a crook,\u201d The Watergate Hotel has been renovated time and again, but no one embraced its original design or posh patrons. Until now. They have arrived at the hotel\u2019s newest chapter. Moretti disciple Ron Arad has restored The Watergate Hotel with a dramatic undulating copper lobby and lush, midcentury modern furniture.<\/p>\n

The Durham<\/strong>
\nDurham, North Carolina<\/p>\n

\"5<\/a><\/p>\n

Durham finally has a destination-worthy hotel. Tasked with designing the Durham<\/a>, Los Angeles\u2013based firm Commune<\/a> drew inspiration from the building\u2019s previous life as the Home Savings Bank, the nearby Black Mountain College in Asheville, and midcentury designers such as Charles Eames, Albert Frey, and Arne Jacobsen.<\/p>\n

Inside, boldly colored rooms and suites are furnished with custom-designed furniture and blankets by Raleigh Denim, while the restaurant, led by award-winning chef Andrea Reusing, features soaring ceilings and hanging lights designed as a nod to Yoshiro Taniguchi\u2019s chandeliers in Tokyo\u2019s Hotel Okura.<\/p>\n

Nautilus<\/strong>
\nMiami Beach<\/p>\n

\"5<\/a><\/p>\n

Originally built as the Nautilus Hotel, this luxury boutique hotel on Collins Ave is located in the heart of Miami\u2019s Art Deco district. Designed by famed architect Morris Lapidus<\/a> in the 1950s, Nautilus, a SIXTY Hotel, has been renovated with homage to its original spirit. Revealing an extensive evolution of what the property once was and stood for, Nautilus will feature a comfortable design that emulates a luxury beach house with public spaces, rooms and suites that will have an international and residential feel.<\/p>\n

The Time<\/strong>
\nNew York<\/p>\n

\"5<\/a><\/p>\n

The Dream Hotel Group tapped the Rockwell Group<\/a> to refresh the Time Hotel New York, a 193-room property in Manhattan\u2019s Times Square, including the sexy LeGrande cocktail lounge and the restaurant Serafina, which features a bold palette of yellow and orange. \u201cThe lighter finishes in the lobby and day lounge and the darker, moodier hues in LeGrande were drawn from a midcentury material palette,\u201d says Greg Keffer, Rockwell Group principal and studio leader.<\/p>\n
