Extreme Hotels

After helping to turn around struggling hotels in the Travel Channel series "Hotel Impossible,'' hospitality consultant Anthony Melchiorri discards the work-and-no-play attitude. In search of breathtaking accommodations in bucket-list locales, Melchiorri heads off the beaten path for overnight stays on land and sea. From snowcapped peaks in the Swiss Alps to the shores of Vietnam, Melchiorri experiences one-of-a-kind hotels in extreme settings, and he gets to enjoy clean sheets.
