Here’s something Millennials probably didn’t see coming: Brandy and Monica have announced their first-ever co-headlining “The Boy Is Mine” tour almost nearly 30 years after one of the duo’s biggest hits. It’s a rare occasion that will also feature special guests Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, and “American Idol” winner Jamal Roberts. As you prepare for the trip down memory lane with your family, friends, or significant other, here are the best Black-owned hotels, resorts, and bed and breakfast accommodations to stay in along the tour.

Located on six lovely acres, Six Acres Bed and Breakfast has beautifully landscaped grounds, offering a serene and peaceful stay. Situated on six beautiful acres in College Hill, the hotel is fifteen minutes from Downtown Cincinnati.

Travelers looking for a relaxing oasis will find it here at Tiny Urban Escapes. The four-suite boutique hotel and glass pavilion event space is beautifully crafted from upcycled shipping containers and serves as a sanctuary. The suites serve as a reminder that peace can be found in any place.

The Quality Inn Memphis Northeast is ideal for those seeking an affordable stay, excellent amenities, and friendly service. Its location near Interstate 40 and Interstate 240 puts guests within a half hour’s drive of the region’s most popular attractions as well as the airport.

Located near Georgia Tech, guests will immerse themselves in the heart of Atlanta’s best: upscale dining, premier shopping, and cultural gems, such as the Fox Theatre. The hotel serves as your gateway to the Midtown Arts District, Piedmont Park, and nearby attractions, including the Georgia Aquarium.

The Historic Magnolia House was a haven for African American travelers during the Jim Crow era.  Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this former motel was recognized in six editions of The Negro Travelers Green Book as a highly recommended place to stay in North Carolina. It has been fully restored to host guests.

Inside The Ivy Hotel, guests will find eight airy, light-filled suites and nine beautiful bedrooms. The beds are a paradise, with dreamy 400-thread-count Frette sheets, a gas fireplace, and a lavish bathroom featuring a heated limestone floor. Some suites offer a corner turret with a view of Mount Vernon. Other rooms have balconies that overlook the leafy courtyard, and some provide a grand octagonal living room.

About 15 minutes from Inglewood in Los Angeles is The Redline Venice Hotel. The historically themed apartment hotel is located in a prime location near Venice Beach’s iconic attractions. Each one-of-a-kind room lets you explore the rich history and unique stories of Venice.

Located in the heart of Southeast Charlotte, Ms. Elsie’s Caribbean Bed & Breakfast started as a dream by Innkeeper Cheryl Watkins. Her dream was to create a tropical haven where she could celebrate her grandmother and her Caribbean heritage with guests from all around the world.

 Cheryl, whose roots are in Aruba, St. Maarten, and Anguilla, combines her passions of “grandmother’s” love of cooking, her mother’s love of crystal China, and her ministry of service to build love and connection for people.

Located in historic Stuyvesant Heights, Akwaaba Mansion is a standout on a quiet block lined with trees and some of the city’s finest brownstones. Make yourself at home in a glorious 1860s landmark. The restored Italianate features exquisite architectural details, including 14-foot ceilings and ornate fireplaces. Inside, the décor is a blend of antiques and Afrocentric elegance. The diverse Brooklyn neighborhood is rich in culture, and the excitement of Manhattan is only 15 minutes away by subway or car.

Located in the waterfront downtown area, the Magnolia House Inn in Hampton, Virginia, is one of the most sought-after lodging experiences. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register, the historic Queen Anne Victorian offers three spacious guest rooms that are sophisticated and comfortable, complete with impeccable amenities and services to enhance the guest’s stay.

The Cochrane House is an art-filled, 19th-century mansion in Detroit’s historic Brush Park. Located in the heart of downtown, the home was built in 1870. The innkeepers are sisters Roderica and Francina James. The sisters created the atmosphere and decor with luxury and comfort in mind.

Constructed during the Roaring Twenties, the iconic property has evolved over its 100-plus years to deliver luxurious modern conveniences with a distinct Jazz Age style. Fast-forward to the present day. The former headquarters of the New Orleans Public Service Inc. stands as a living American treasure and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as a member of Historic Hotels of America.

What was once a dry ice warehouse is now Hotel Dryce: a 21-room boutique hotel located in Fort Worth’s Cultural District. Co-founded by entrepreneurs Jonathan Morris and Allen Mederos, Hotel Dryce was created to showcase the laid-back nature, diversity, and creativity that Fort Worth has to offer. The hotel is a cultural hub where travelers and locals can connect.
