Maldives Trip Review, the Hotel Jen, Male
There are dozens upon dozens of 5 star luxurious resorts in the Maldives. It just so happens that all of them are also a speedboat or seaplane ride away from the main island. With a dirth of options for luxury on the capital island itself, it was nice to see that the Hotel Jen by Shangri-La takes pride in providing an excellent 5 star experience in decidedly less luxurious surroundings. Our $46,000 vacation to the Maldives for only...
A day in the life of Male, Capital City, Maldives Review
Male is a bustling city, the capital of the Maldives with over 130,000 people. In fact, it’s one of the most densely populated islands in the world. We decided that it wouldn’t be a trip to the Maldives if we didn’t at least hang out here for one night to get a real experience for the island life. Upon reflection after the fact, we probably should have just gone straight for...

Hotel Review: The DISGUSTING Amway Grand Plaza, a Curio Collection Hotel
The Amway Grand Plaza hotel towers over the Grand Rapids, MI skyline. For as long as I can remember, when you drive through Grand Rapids, you would see the 28-story building from a mile away. I always wanted to stay here, but never really had the opportunity. Recently on a trip to Grand Rapids, Ben and I decided to give this hotel a shot. Now that they’re a Curio Collection by Hilton Hotel, earning and redeeming...
Refined Luxury at London’s St Pancras Renaissance Hotel
Mention the Maldives and images of pristine turquoise blue waters come to mind. Overwater bungalows with direct jump-in access to the water and romantic sunsets are commonplace in this island paradise. While it’s on almost everyone’s wish list, getting there can be a challenge. Flights are often ridiculously expensive and once you DO get to the islands, a barrage of expensive hotels with...
Hotel Review: Kimpton Palomar Hotel, Phoenix, Arizona
The Phoenix Sky Harbor airport is only a quick 7-10 minute drive from downtown, so when we had an early flight out of the PHX airport last month, it made perfect sense to try out a cool Kimpton Hotel in downtown. Enter, the Kimpton Palomar. Lobby(s) There are two lobby’s for the hotel, and the design makes figuring out which you are supposed to be in kind of complicated. If you come from the parking deck, navigate...
Review: Andaz Scottsdale in Arizona
I have to start by saying I’m somewhat new to World of Hyatt. For a while, we had been very heavily consolidating our stays with either SPG or Hilton, primarily because of their wide footprints in all places we usually frequent. It didn’t make sense to diversify our stays on another brand while we were achieving lifetime platinum with Marriott. Hyatt, also, has a much, much smaller footprint and a much, much higher price...
The Best Hotel Elite Status for 2019
Hotels have changed quite a bit in the past year, so earning elite status at Marriott, Hilton, IHG, or Hyatt can be more of a challenge. Which is best?
Detroit’s Westin Book Cadillac, Hotel Review
Detroit is having a bit of a renaissance. Business is moving in, wages are rising, and culture is returning to the city. Downtown is vibrant, and one of, if not the best, hotels to stay in is the Westin Book Cadillac. The hotel is quite the imposing structure. Over 20 stories of a wonderfully restored building. Construction finally began in 1923, and the building, which bore part of the name of the old structure, was the tallest in...
