Top 20 Experiential Hotel Amenities

In conjunction with the 2015 Readers' Choice Awards, we asked our readers about the most unique hotel amenities they had encountered on their travels. The answers ranged from adventurous to immersive, such as fly fishing in New Zealand or dining with a Berber family in Morocco.

One unifying theme we found throughout the replies: Luxury hotels are offering highly interactive and entertaining amenities. Instead of traditional services and amenities like butlers and champagne, hotels are now catering toward the more experiential traveler — and our readers have taken note.

Here are our top 20 favorite experiential hotel amenities from this year's poll:
