Literary Hotels: Where famous authors have partied, waited arrest, and -- yes -- even written novels (PHOTOS)

Whether they're on business or leisure, with the family or solo, almost all travelers consider a book (or a Kindle, whatever) a must-have while on a trip. Personally, we love curling up with a good read while we're jaunting from city to city. But -- taking it one step further -- we really love enjoying a novel in the exact same place where the author once roamed There's just something in the air -- and p.s. these wordsmiths usually stayed in some pretty nice digs.

Check out nine spots where famous writers have spent some time.
