You’ve set your sights on a US road trip, you’ve got your route all mapped out and your eye on a set of wheels, but where will you rest your weary head after a long day’s drive along Route 66?

Wonder no more, the travel writers at msnbc have been busy road-testing  some of America’s most iconic, traditional and boutique hotels and have drawn up a list of their favourite roadside retreats and highway hotels.

If their recommendations aren’t enough to have you on the first flight to the U.S of A, our latest US car hire special offers certainly will.

Hurry up, time is running out on:

Orlando car hire from €15 per day*

*Price quoted is based on the 7-day rental of a mini/economy-sized vehicle booked by September 3rd 2008.
