With most Americans avoiding air travel during the pandemic — but some still desperate to get out of town for a little vacation — road trips are fast becoming the best and only way to travel during the pandemic.
And to make the experience a whole lot more comfortable, Hotels.com is bringing some of the best hotel amenities right to customers' cars.
The booking site announced today that 10 lucky customers will be able to get their hands on its very-exclusive 'Road Trip Robes': plush terrycloth hotel robes stocked with lots of snacks, built-in WiFi, a charging station, a hot and cold pocket, and more fun amenities.

Except for the cozy white terrycloth, the $150 Road Trip Robe is unlike any hotel robe anyone has ever enjoyed on an overnight stay.
It comes with a minibar pocket that has been pre-stocked with road trip snacks (and hand wipes), including chips and candy.
There is built-in WiFi to give data plans a break, and even a tech pocket to charge phones or other devices.
Yet another pocket include a small safe for storing valuables, while an insulated hot and cold pocket is built in for keeping lunch warm or drinks (or ice cream) cold.
The robe also has a mattress seat and a supply of hand sanitizer, as well as a $1,500 Hotels.com gift card and a year-long upgrade to Hotels.com gold status.

Carb heaven! For two weeks in January, Hotels.com opened a special hotel suite at the the Refinery Hotel in Manhattan that is positively packed with all things bread and carbs
Don't waffle around! The bed and sofa had throw pillows shaped like pastries, while even the coffee mugs had a toast pattern
Never stop snacking! The room also came outfitted with a tasty donut wall and a minibar with free pastries
Baked bathtime: The bathroom had toast-themed décor, mini soaps shaped like cinnamon buns, bread-themed toiletries, and baguette slippers and 'Carbivore' robes
Earlier this year, the brand opened a special limited-time hotel suite at the Refinery Hotel in Manhattan called the Hotels.com Bread & Breakfast — which was 'a carb-infused wonderland' filled with bread-themed décor, amenities, and of course, lots and lots of food, including a pastry mini bar, a donut wall, and a bagel wall.
According to a press release, every detail had been carb-ified, from the moment guests check in and get a 'sweet treat' with their room key.
The room itself was pumped with bakery scents and made over with bread-themed décor, including a baked goods mural on the wall, a 'Fresh Baked Bread' neon sign hanging above the bed, and baked goods-printed window curtains.
The bed had a headboard shaped like a slice of bread, plus a bread-patterned comforter and throw pillows shaped like waffles, donuts, and pretzels.
The bathroom, meanwhile, had toast-themed décor, mini soaps shaped like cinnamon buns, bread-themed toiletries, and baguette slippers and 'Carbivore' robes for guests to take home.
There was also plenty to eat for those who came with a ready apetite.
