My favorite hotel is becoming a chain
Equinox Hotel in New York City is by far my favorite hotel. Now, the brand is branching out with a property coming to Amaala in 2026. I never planned to visit Saudi Arabia before, but now I’m intrigued. Right now, the site is only set up for notification sign-ups. I am going to pop in…

Okay, about the food at the Fairmont Millenium Park
Yesterday, I wrote about my room at the Fairmont Millenium Park. It was fine, but I can’t see myself coming back, especially adding in my assessment of the food. Room Service Night one, I ordered a burger from room service. It’s been the standard that I use to judge all in-room dining services whenever possible.…

Quick review of the Fairmont Millennium Park
Months ago, I booked in for a stay at the Fairmont Millenium Park in Chicago. I wanted to try the brand for a while, with high hopes. I entered the property, noticing a rotunda decked out in warm wood, and I quickly went up to check out my room. I had booked a double, which…

And now, the food at the Langham Hotel in New York
When I booked my stay at the Langham Hotel in New York City, I did it through American Express. That gave me daily breakfasts, a credit to be used for dining, and a whole lot of excuses to try the food. Multiple mornings, I started breakfasts in their dining room. On one side of the…

Quick note about the service at the Langham Hotel NYC

A sorta room tour at the Langham NYC
After staying at the Langham Hotel in Boston, I got curious about the other properties they had around the world. This summer I made my way to the New York location. I went up to the room, using the key card enabled elevator. The bathroom was stocked with Diptyque products. There was a welcome treat…

Where I’d be
If things were different, I would find myself traveling even more. I’d question the need to even have a permanent address because of how often I’d be on the go. This alternate me would be living the real me’s dream. There are times I sit down in a hotel room and think, “If only this…

A quick stay at the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry
Roughly two months ago, I went to Miami, or Aventura to be exact. I stayed at the JW Marriott Miami Turnberry Resort and Spa. The place was full of people likely escaping their cold weather at home, people conferencing, and people there just to show off their fancy sports cars. I was there to see…

Maybe I want to go to Finland
I am having some trouble focusing today. So let’s go on a fake adventure! I had a random place generated: Finland. The recommended hotel is Iso Syöte Hotel located in Lapland, two hours drive from the Oulu international airport. Specifically, their Eagle Suite has been rated as one of the most romantic stays in the…

Are you a wipes traveler?
There’s a video of Naomi Campbell going through the airport preparing for her flight. Even before the rise in germ awareness, she was disinfecting every surface she would touch on the plane. Then there are people who enter their hotel and do the same, wiping down everything. Some even bring their own sheets and towels…
