Retro Ad of the Week: Sheraton Hotels & Motor Inns, 1967

This 1960’s businessman races to catch his flight to his next meeting, checking his watch in a hurry to remain on schedule. “That’s progress?” this retro hotel ad asks. Well, yes, in a way jetting to and from a distant city in a single day is quite a technological accomplishment for 1967! But not if you are sluggish and dreary.

Instead, why not unwind at a Sheraton? Get a tasty meal, a restful sleep, and a good re-winding for the day ahead, you keyed-up executive, you.

FUN FACT: The most expensive hotel room in the world is a 12-bedroom suite in Geneva, Switzerland that costs a whopping $83,200 a night. Not terribly relaxing for your wallet! (Source: CNN)
