This also works when travelling in the United States.  Most, if not all,
states have travel bureaus and such that are also happy to send brochures
and hotel lists, etc. for FREE.  Be sure to write far enough in advance for
the brochures to reach you.  Many places send them third class mail, so leave
a few weeks for delivery.
