    New Review – Hilton London Heathrow at Terminal 4 (LHR)

    I was scheduled to arrive late in the evening at London Heathrow and didn’t feel like traveling into the city, so I opted for an airport hotel. Heathrow has several Hilton and IHG hotels, but I chose the Hilton London Heathrow at Terminal 4 for economic reasons. This decision was largely driven by the hotel’s proximity to the terminal and the convenience it offers for early morning flights or late arrivals. I booked a non-refundable rate through the Hilton app, selecting the cheapest room available, a King Guest Room, since…

    New Review – Moxy Frankfurt Airport (FRA)

    Introduction Even though it might seem like “another Moxy,” I decided to visit this one and share my thoughts and experiences from my short stay in this review. Moxy hotels are known for their modern, youthful vibe and efficient service, making them a popular choice for travelers looking for a hassle-free stay. Booking Everything was quite last-minute, but I managed to book this Moxy at the airport through the Cashback website at a good price. For comparison, the Sheraton or Hilton were both over €100 more expensive, and since I…

    New Review Habtoor Palace LXR – Dubai (DXB)

    Dubai is renowned for its opulent lifestyle, stunning architecture, and vibrant cultural scene. It’s a city that seamlessly blends traditional Middle Eastern hospitality with modern luxury, making it a popular destination for travelers worldwide. Booking I had been eyeing the LXR Habtoor Palace for some time, alongside the Waldorf in Dubai’s Financial Center. As late spring approaches, Dubai becomes hotter, which means fewer tourists visit, making prices more attractive. I booked a night at the LXR Habtoor Palace, initially opting for a King Deluxe Room. This timing allowed me to…

    New Review Mabuhay Lounge – Manila (MNL)

    Manila’s Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) can be quite confusing for travelers due to its layout. The airport is divided into four terminals: Terminal 1, Terminal 2 (also known as Centennial Terminal), Terminal 3, and Terminal 4. A free shuttle service is available for transfers between these terminals, which is convenient for those with connecting flights. Alternatively, you can take a taxi, but walking between terminals, especially in the dark, is not recommended due to safety concerns and the distance involved. Location and Access The Mabuhay Lounge is located in…

    New Review – Doubletree by Hilton Wroclaw / Breslau

    Booking and Location A friend and I each booked one night separately through the Hilton website. Why separately? We both wanted to earn a night credit, and since we both have Hilton Diamond status, booking this way allowed us to maximize our benefits. From Wroclaw’s Copernicus Airport,, we took an Uber and arrived at the hotel in about 25 minutes. The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Conference Centre Wroclaw is located in a quiet area surrounded by greenery, approximately 15 minutes from the city center. Check In Initially, having two…

    New Review Hotel Turist – Varazdin Turist Varazdin

    Booking The booking itself was made by the company, so I didn’t have to take care of it myself. I booked a single room, but that was sufficient for the short time I spent in the hotel. Location The hotel is located within walking distance of restaurants and the castle of Varazdin. The city is around an hour’s drive from Zagreb. Check In As we checked in late in the evening, everything went smoothly and quickly.   Rooms The first impression is good, the hotel has four stars. At the…

    New Review Hilton – Tokyo (Hilton Shinjuku)

    Booking The aim was to find affordable nights with a certain level of luxury in Tokyo over the New Year period, which is particularly challenging in Tokyo over the New Year period. The Hilton chain has several hotels in Tokyo, the Hilton and the Conrad made it to the shortlist. Economic reasons led me to book the cheapest available room at the Hilton Tokyo. Location The hotel is easy to reach from Haneda Airport by car or public transportation, but it is a little longer from Narita Airport. Shinjuku station…

    New Review – Hestia Hotel Kentmanni (TLL)

    Booking and location I was invited for this review, but of course this has no effect on my opinion of this hotel. The Bolt driver didn’t find the hotel straight away and so I had to walk a little to the hotel. From here it is about a 15 minute walk to the old town. Check In The check-in was very quick and after a few moments I already had the room cards in my hand. There is a cozy sitting area opposite the reception. The hotel has two lifts,…
