    New Review Hilton – Hilton Toronto (King Sky View Room)

    13/07/2025 / No Comments

    🛎️ Booking For the second night of my Toronto trip, I chose the Hilton Toronto Downtown. I booked a flexible rate, mainly because the price was great and I wanted to keep my options open – I was also considering the InterContinental. Since I was only staying for one night, I went with the most affordable option: a King Guest Room. 📍 Location The hotel is reachable from Toronto Pearson International Airport in about an hour, whether you’re driving or taking public transport. For exploring the city, the location is ideal – both the subway and…

    New Review – Moxy Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP)

    13/07/2025 / No Comments

    📍 Location & Access – Convenient and Straightforward The Moxy Milan Malpensa Airport is located just across from Terminal 2 – making it a top choice if you’re arriving late or flying out early. If you land at Terminal 1, no worries: the free airport shuttle runs every 15 minutes (and every 45 minutes at night until 1 AM), and the ride takes under 10 minutes. 🚌 From the shuttle stop, it’s just a short walk across the intersection and you’ll see the hotel right in front of you. I even asked for directions through the Marriott app, and they replied quickly…

    🏨 Hotel Review – DoubleTree by Hilton, Nice (France)

    02/07/2025 / No Comments

    As someone who spends a lot of time in hotels, I know how important it is for a stay to be both relaxing and hassle-free. The DoubleTree by Hilton in Nice delivered exactly that. From the warm, genuine welcome at check-in to the signature chocolate chip cookie handed out upon arrival – a comforting gesture that felt especially appreciated after a late-evening arrival – everything was off to a good start. 📍 Location & Surroundings The hotel enjoys a prime location right next to Nice’s main train station (Gare de Nice-Ville). The beach is only a 10-minute…

    01/07/2025 / No Comments

    If you’re flying through Daniel K. Inouye International Airport (HNL) in Honolulu and looking for a quiet spot to relax, get some work done, or enjoy a quick snack, the Admirals Club might be just what you need. Here’s my full review after a recent visit. 📍 Location & Access The Admirals Club is located near Gate C in Terminal 2 — a central area of the airport that’s easy to reach after passing through security. Signage is clear, and the lounge is easy to find, especially if you’re flying with American Airlines or one of its Oneworld…

    Mileage Run Madness in Poland: 6 Legs, 4 Cities, 12 Hours – and Plenty of Points!

    23/05/2025 / No Comments

    For frequent flyers chasing status—whether Star Alliance Gold or Miles & More Frequent Traveller—it’s not always about long-haul business class flights. Sometimes, a well-planned weekend mileage run with cheap domestic flights can yield crucial qualifying points. The Experiment I tested this with LOT Polish Airlines: 6 domestic flights in one day, each booked separately as one-ways to maximize points and enjoy lounge access between flights. Why Book One-Ways? The Route (All from/to Warsaw – WAW) All flights took place in May with a tight schedule from early morning to evening.…

    New Review – Hotel Telegraaf an Autograph Collection, Tallinn (TLL)

    13/03/2025 / No Comments

    This booking was made using a free night certificate from Marriott, which you receive after staying 50, 75, or 100 nights. This meant the stay was complimentary, and I also opted for a suite upgrade, which is available after 50 nights. I was fortunate to have both the room and upgrade confirmed promptly. However, whether I would pay the regular price for this stay is discussed in this review. It’s worth noting that hotel prices in Tallinn, like elsewhere, can vary significantly depending on the season and local events. Location…

    New Review – Hilton London Angel Islington

    13/03/2025 / No Comments

    Introduction Due to health reasons, I had to postpone my London trip. During the rebooking process, I didn’t realize that it coincided with the coronation of King Charles, which made hotels relatively expensive. The best solution for me was to book the Hilton London Angel Islington with a non-refundable rate through the Hilton app. Since it was only for one night, I opted for the cheapest room available, a King Guest Room. This decision was largely driven by the need to save on costs, as the coronation event had significantly…

    13/03/2025 / No Comments

    Introduction to Santiago Airport Santiago’s Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL) is a major hub in South America, serving as a gateway to Chile and other regional destinations. For travelers with early flights or late arrivals, staying at an airport hotel can be very convenient. The Courtyard by Marriott Santiago Airport is one such option, offering a practical and comfortable stay near the airport. Booking I booked this hotel directly, waiting for a cashback promotion that eventually offered 4%. This strategy allowed me to save a bit on my stay.…
