Hotel Value for Frequent Guests

Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam City Hall opened in April 2018 in a location about 15 minutes walk east of Centraal Station. I wrote in January 2018 that I thought it unlikely the reward rate would remain priced at 20,000 points for very long. I booked the hotel in October 2018 at 20K per night for…
London on Christmas Day is a challenge for public transportation with no Underground or train services operating, so getting from an airport to city center inexpensively was National Express bus service to London Victoria Coach Station. Thousands of people using taxis and ride sharing services at peak holiday pricing motivated me to look for a…
A $250 per night Best Western hotel in Anaheim would not have been my first choice for a hotel stay when visiting Disneyland, but 10,000 points for a reward night at a hotel across the street from the Disneyland park entrance provided a persuasive change of attitude toward a motel style hotel. We stayed three…
Hotel Skt. Petri is the flagship property of Nordic Choice Hotels in Denmark, and also a member of Preferred Hotels Group. Skt. Petri Hotel is an upper upscale hotel that ranks #6 of 118 Copenhagen hotels on TripAdvisor. This is my favored hotel for Copenhagen due to its great central city location, suitable room and excellent…
Clarion Hotel Prague City is a hotel I have stayed at several times over the past two years. I love the Vinohrady location with residential neighborhoods and laid back pubs and the ease of reaching the hotel via Metro from Prague Airport. What I don’t like about Clarion Hotel Prague City is the air conditioner…
Hilton Garden Inn Krakow Airport is one of two hotels in Krakow with reward nights at 10,000 points per night. Hampton Inn Krakow is the other 10K hotel reward using Hilton Honors points. We booked one night at Hilton Garden Inn Krakow Airport due to an insanely early 3:45am Iberia flight to Madrid. Kelley and…
DoubleTree Krakow and Hampton Inn Krakow are conjoined hotels located by the Galeria Plaza shopping mall near Tauron Arena, about 4km/2.5miles east from Rynek Glowny, Old Town Square Krakow and the train station.
Clarion Congress Hotel České Budějovice is an example of a hotel deal that took me to a city I probably would never have planned to visit otherwise. A hotel suite bookable through Choice Privileges for 8,000 points on Friday-Saturday and 10,000 points Sunday-Thursday was 38,000 points for our Sat-Tue 4 night stay. I purchased 38,000…
Comfort Hotel Vesterbro Copenhagen is one of two Nordic Choice Hotels in central Copenhagen and within about 5 minutes walk of Central Station and the airport train. The more upscale Skt. Petri, Ascend Collection is the hotel I have stayed at several times and is even easier to reach from the airport by Metro to…
A search for a zoo photo from Amsterdam led me to a June 2017 photo folder with images of InterContinental Park Lane London. My photos were never renamed indicating I never published them for articles from my June 2017 trip report to Gdansk and Krakow, Poland with a flight from Stockholm, Sweden back to San…
