King George Hotel, SPG RIDICULOUS Breakfast, Platinum Benefit
Hotel Review for the King George Hotel in Athens, Greece.
Review: SPG, King George Hotel, Athens, Greece
Starwood has a strong presence in Greece. They’ve got about 10 properties and have just added a few more of the Design Hotel properties in the past couple of months. Their two flagship properties in Athens are the Grande Bretagne and our hotel of choice, the King George. This hotel is A STEAL at a category 5 hotel, and is in my opinion incredibly underpriced. Now that I realized I typed that, I hope no one from SPG ever reads this,...
We’re already Platinum with Marriott and SPG. Now what?!
There’s been a lot of talk lately about the Marriott and SPG mergers, so I don’t think we need a full rehash of what’s been going on, but instead I’ll recap briefly. Back in April the shareholders of the two companies approved the merger and the questions started flowing in. What would happen to my points? Would hotel brands be cancelled? Would I lose my status? What about free breakfast? Hey, us Platinum members have our priorities...

Enter to WIN from the #NMCLaborDay Mileage Run!
Hello and thanks for reading us here on NoMasCoach! As you may have figured out, we had one heck of a Labor Day weekend, as we flew over 12,000 miles all over the US and Central America, stayed at a couple of hotels, and earned a boatload of miles in the process. In case you missed it, here’s all the flights and hotel stays from the weekend. Flight 1 of 10, Alaska Airlines SEA-SFO, #NMCLaborDay Flight 2 of 10, AA 1143...
Ever walked in on someone else’s hotel room? Twice?
Way back when, IHG ran the Priceless Surprises promotion where thousands if not tens of thousands of people spent weekends filling out postcards in order for the chance to win points, hotel stays, or dream getaways. We got lucky on our 8th game piece as we won a free night in the USA from IHG. It had to be used by the end of the year, and we didn’t have a lot of US travel coming up. The only time we could find to use it was at...
Review: Waldorf Astoria, Panama City #NMCLaborDay
Panama City is a bustling metropolis with at least one of every major chain hotel you can imagine. We had, within a few blocks radius, a Marriott, Hilton, Sheraton, and Le Meridien, so really when it came time to book it came down to status and cost. We’ve had Hilton Gold status now for the better part of the year, and I can honestly say we haven’t taken much advantage of it. Probably because we’ve always noticed the...
SEA-SFO-LAX-JFK-MIA-PTY, PTY-MIA-ORD-JFK-SFO-SEA. PHEW!
So, what are you doing this Labor Day? Barbecue? Sports? Hiking outside? Maybe some museums and family time? We’re doing this crazy itinerary you see above. If you’re feeling tongue tied, imagine us! It all started as a way for us to book a flight to maintain our Alaska Airlines status using some partner airlines (in this case, American Airlines) and doing it on the cheap. Since American...
Review: Sheraton Libertador Buenos Aires
Since we were in Rio de Janeiro for the Olympic Games, and we’d gone through Santiago de Chile to get there, we figured we could do a stop over in Buenos Aires – since we were soooo close anyway – and enjoy that beautiful city. Also, it gave us the chance to try an amazing Aerolineas Argentinas premium product. We had previously stayed at the InterContinental, the Holiday Inn Express, the Hotel Two and the Sheraton...

Now, we’ve stayed at some amazing hotels in our travels. Here’s the Sheraton in...
