Hotel Swag: Doubletree Wants Us to Love Lamps

If it's Doubletree Hotels that really takes your fancy over other chains, then you have to be ready to deck your home out with Doubletree lamps. Because that's about the only Doubletree swag that looks slightly original, although we're not quite sure where their lamp obsession comes from.

The Doubletree at Home online shop has some of the usual suspects: sheets and blankets, and a bunch of not so exciting bathroom accessories. It only comes into its own when you start with the lamps.

The choice is tough: a wooden lamp, the teardrop lamp, even the banker's lamp. They're priced between $150 and $320--the teardrop lamp falls in at the top of the market--and they all look a bit like they just come out of a hotel room. Lamp fetishists only need go shopping here.
