Health experts and political leaders have made it clear: social distancing and staying home are some of the best ways to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t sneak a little getaway from your living room.

Museums around the world are offering virtual tours of their exhibits,  Broadway is streaming past shows,  DJ’s are hosting virtual parties, and now you can escape your couch thanks to hotel live cams. 

These hotels are offering live streams that will allow you to get away right now:
