As mentioned by others some of the better luxury hotels are not chains. The Salamander in Washington DC was the Mandarin, and now is more exclusive under the new brand.
Aside from that should we be adding Sofitel? To my understanding their locations are:
New York
Philadelphia
Washington DC
Chicago
Los Angeles
There are a number of Ritz Carlton Residences under development in SoFla: Miami Beach, Sunny Isles, Pompano and Palm Beach Gardens that are in addition to the existing Coconut Grove.
Location: Miami (prev. NY, Atlanta, SF, OC and San Diego)

Possible….Four Seasons also has some properties that are combination hotels/residences—such as the one up the street from me in Brickell. I believe Mandarin Oriental has, or will, as well (Boca, Brickell Key…not sure about elsewhere—NYC?? )
Surprised nobody has mentioned Rosewood (I’m too lazy to list them).

Yep. Rosewood is in this. Then there’s Montage hotels

Traditionally, it wasn’t that way. But that’s the direction Ritz Carlton is headed. The first Ritz Carlton residencies in the Houston area will be going to the Woodlands and it will operate as a residencies an AirBNB type extended stay option for some rooms
There’s also a Ritz Carlton in Saudi Arabia that’s a luxury prison

For luxury, 98% of which are not part of a chain, boutique hotels I’m a big fan of The Leading Hotels of the World group.
Whenever possible (translation: those participating hotels in the group that do not fetch $900-2000+/night…there are a few, some under $500/night), I started booking at member hotels. If you sign up for their Leaders Club loyalty program on lhw.com you often get fantastic rates, they offer specials at some properties (stay 3 nights and the 4th is free), breakfast for 2 included, upgraded room if available and regardless of point total/status, early check in and late check out.

In almost every thread you post in, you just post the most blatantly obvious things like:
Dallas is on the list.
Dallas is number 2.
Dallas tied blah, blah..
etc.
It's quite repetitive and not needed.
Don't sweat the small stuff. It's really not that big of a deal.
