Review: Hilton Luxor Hotel
Luxor is just a quick one-hour flight down the Nile from Cairo, but it couldn’t be more different. It’s not nearly as populated, not nearly as crowded, and the ruins are completely different from those in Cairo and Giza.

Hilton Sharjah review, the “other” Emirate
Sharjah is one of the Emirates that doesn’t get much attention, in fact, when we were telling most people about Sharjah, they had no clue where it was on the map. Turns out it’s only about 20 minutes north of Dubai airport and there’s a Hilton there too!

Sheraton Grand Hotel Dubai and Holiday Inn Al Barsha
There are dozens of chain hotels in Dubai to choose from. IHG has a dozen or so, so does Starwood. Marriott has around 10, and Hyatt has 4. Heck, even Club Carlson has around 6 to choose from. Since we wanted to keep our platinum status with Starwood, we opted for the Sheraton Grand Hotel Dubai because of it’s central location and low point redemption options.

Sheraton Kuta, Bali (Wow, Wow, Wow!!)
Bali is a complex island, while being simple at the same time , when it comes to booking hotels. You can find hotels for $20 a night that come with full breakfast and comfortable rooms or you can spend $400 a night at a resort, where everything costs more, and you never leave the grounds and all your needs are taken care of.

Westin Melbourne and the Press Club
Melbourne. For me, the Seattle of Australia. Laid back coffee culture, hipsters, and amazing cuisine. Music and nightlife to boot make this a great city and one that needs time to be properly explored.
