After a few days in Split, we took the ferry to our last stop of the trip, Dubrovnik. I was excited to stay at the Hilton Imperial Dubrovnik because of its location just outside of Dubrovnik’s Old Town near the entrance at the Pile Gate. The hotel was built as the Grand Hotel Imperial in…
Hotel Review: Canopy by Hilton Zagreb City Centre
Zagreb wasn’t initially a stop on my Croatia itinerary. With less than a week to visit, I was eager to head to Split and Dubrovnik right away. I’m glad I was able to squeeze in one night in Zagreb. Staying at the Canopy by Hilton made the experience even more enjoyable. Here’s my review of…
Hotel Review: Hilton Lima Miraflores
I normally think of Hilton hotels as a reliable option usually in the business district of a city with not much creativity in terms of design. The Hilton Lima Miraflores blew this opinion out of the water! The hotel has a beautiful design, great location, and a standout executive lounge. Here’s my review of the…
Hotel Review: JW Marriott Cusco
Before we headed off on our Inca Trail hike to Machu Picchu, we stayed at the JW Marriott Cusco for two nights to acclimate to the higher altitude. We booked a third night at the JW Marriott Cusco after our trek before heading up to Lima. The hotel kindly stored the luggage that we didn’t…
Hotel Review: InterContinental Singapore
After spending 10 days in Japan, we were excited to experience Singapore. We spent three nights in Singapore total: two nights before and one after our time in the Maldives. Our last night was at the Conrad Centennial Singapore, but for the first two nights, we stayed at the InterContinental Singapore. I picked the hotel…
Hotel Review: Conrad Singapore
After spending four amazing days at the Conrad Maldives, we headed back to Singapore for the last night of our honeymoon. We had already spent two nights at the InterContinental Singapore prior to heading the Maldives, but decided to check out the Conrad Singapore for our last night. As Diamond members, we were excited about…
Hotel Review: Conrad Maldives Superior Water Villa
The Maldives is one of the most aspirational destinations, especially for those in the points and miles game. Getting to stay at a resort that costs upwards of a thousand dollars a night on points is one of the best redemptions out there. Of course, there are unavoidable fees like the transfer to the airport…
Hotel Review: Conrad New York Downtown
We travel to New York City about once per year so I’ve tried out a few of the points and miles hotel options. I wanted to stay at the Conrad New York Downtown this time to take advantage of the Diamond perks like free breakfast. Since this property used to be an Embassy Suites, all…
Hotel Review: InterContinental Osaka
We made our way from Kyoto to our last stop in Japan, Osaka. Our time in Osaka was limited, so we only needed a hotel for one night. I decided this would be a good chance to use my free night certificate from the now-defunct IHG Rewards Club Select Card from Chase (RIP). Essentially, we…
Hotel Review: Ritz-Carlton Kyoto
After a wonderful stay at the Ritz-Carlton Tokyo for our honeymoon, we made our way to our next stop: Kyoto. We spent three nights in Kyoto which was a good amount of time to explore the city and surrounding areas. Staying at the Ritz-Carlton Kyoto was a great choice as it’s located on the Kamo…
