Hilton made a big move in 2011 by teaming up with the brand Peter Thomas Roth to put together a collection of products for their rooms. Most of the products come from the Mega-Rich line, including Mega-Rich Shampoo, Conditioner, Body Lotion, and Body Wash (a 2012 Total Beauty Award winner). There's also a Moisture Infusion Facial Bar and Massaging Bath Bar, perfect for a relaxing soak after sightseeing.

Canyon Ranch Hotels
Canyon Ranch is already an obvious choice for the beauty-obsessed, since most locations focus on luxury spa treatments. Now there's another reason to book: The LATHER Bamboo Cr�me line (including hair wash, conditioning rinse, body wash, and cr�me moisturizer) is in the rooms at all locations. The products have bamboo extract and other moisturizing ingredients like jojoba, avocado, and aloe vera -- and they smell like a spa in a bottle.

Trump Hotels
We'll admit, most of the other hotels on this list feature products you could buy elsewhere if you didn't want to fork over the hefty room fee. But the toiletries in Trump hotels are made specifically for the rooms and feature a custom-developed scent (no, it's not smell of money). Use their clarifying shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand lotion, hand soap, and salt scrub and people will definitely know you've been someplace posh. Bonus: all the products are free of parabens and petrochemicals.
Reasons a so-called normal person chooses a hotel: It's close to the event she's attending, the beds are comfy, it has a kick-ass pool.
Reasons a beauty junkie chooses a hotel: The in-room blow dryer actually works, it's got a salon and spa on the premises, the bathroom amenities are worthy of stashing in her suitcase.
Sure, you could say one would have to be nuts to go out of her way for a nice bottle of shampoo. But is it so crazy? Think about it. If your hotel has stellar toiletries, you don't have to pack your own. Plus, if you've got room to stash some leftover bottles, you can use them for your next trip, your guest bathroom, or in your own shower as a fun reminder of your vacation. It's sounding more sane every second, right?
Right. So, to help all of you beauty-focused travelers out there, we created this travel guide to the hotels with the best bathroom amenities. Now all you need to do is make sure you save some room in your suitcase for all of those mini bottles you're going to want to lug home.
