It's Going Down! (town)
But be careful, it can go from kitsch to sketch really fast. A hotel doing a lot — sometimes too much — in the middle of 6th street's particular brand of chaos.

Is this a “W” or an “L”?
The service was hit or miss. The pool is gorgeous, the bar is loud, and the bed is fine. Whether that's worth it depends on which W you walk into.

The Rodeo Hotel
Hotel Drover feels like it was born in a barn and raised on Fort Worth swagger. It's a vibe — and it commits.

Hyatt Regency Hill Country & Resort
Christmas at the Hyatt has never been so fun! Waterslides, fire pits, and a Tower of Americas view that hits different at sunset.
Read review
Seoul Brother!
I had been eagerly awaiting this one for a while. The new Prestige Suite is a noticeable jump — sliding door, sensible storage, and a chef-on-call attitude.
Read review
Korean Air Prestige Lounge
Imagine it as an Amex Centurion Lounge but less…upscale? Still well above average, and the noodle bar alone is worth the visit.
Read review
So close to Coex
Due to the language barrier, we found it challenging to correct — but the room itself is one of the calmest in the city.

3 Stars? Huh? But wait!
There was a roach that climbed out of my seat into my drink. But somehow the meal, the crew, and the seat made up for a lot of it.

Pick the room
South Korea's newest Hyatt. Centrally located, next to a subway station, and the rooms vary wildly — read this before you book.

Al Mourjan Business Class Lounge
Actually two lounges with the same name. One on the 2nd floor on the east end; one on the 3rd floor on the north. Pick wisely.

Lotta value, lotta heat
But even amongst all that, I don't dislike this place. The atrium lobby alone makes the stay feel grander than the rate suggests.
Read review
American Airlines Flagship Lounge
This is my first time rating a lounge, so it's difficult to compare. But for a domestic hub lounge, this sets the bar.

Don't stay here too long
Pura Vida. The resort is gorgeous, the beach is pristine, and the staff is warm. Just watch the clock — it gets hard to leave.

The nicest Regency in North America
I mean this is a Hyatt Regency, not some luxury hotel. But it felt pretty close — and at Regency prices, that's a win.
Read review
The Woodlands Resort
This place may be a little too successful. The resort is beautiful, but the crowds and the noise are part of the deal.

Unplug and Relax
Spent some quality time with my significant other. They take your phone at check-in. Yes, really. No, I didn't hate it.
Read review
Silky Smooth
The smooth as silk experience. The Royal Silk cabin is a throwback — and I mean that in the best possible way.

QSuites — the apex airline
I truly believe this is the apex airline. The QSuite quad still has no real competitor, six years on.

I want it ALL
I'd never felt such a contrast between outside and inside in my life. The villa is a small private universe. Don't open the door.

Luxury at its finest (for Thailand)
I'll have to take off a point for how hostile Bangkok can be to tourists — but the hotel itself is a quiet, perfect bubble.
Read review
Sorta sus
It's hard to give this place a 5. Service was great. The hotel itself? A bit dated, and the breakfast scene was chaos.
Read review
Mabuhay!
The heart of the Filipino — the crew goes above and beyond in ways that feel genuinely warm rather than performed.
Read review
Sky Suites on a 777
JAL's old Sky Suite is the unsung hero of trans-pacific business — direct aisle access, a real footwell, and the cleanest cabin on the route.
Read review
Windy City go brrrr
The wind chill takes the cold and deposits it directly into your bones. The hotel, at least, is a warm and stylish escape.
Read review
The Room
A first class worthy of being #2 in the world. The cabin is a small, intentional apartment at 35,000 feet — sliding doors, a real chair, a real bed, and service that doesn't perform service.

It's Poppin?
Tourists galore! The hotel is fine, the city is the show — go for the gold leaf and the gardens.

Your home in the sky
Osaka's best, unforgettable views. The 40th-floor lobby is the kind of welcome you want after a 12-hour flight.
Read review
It's Fine
In Kyoto? Try this Goldilocks Hotel — not too fancy, not too bland. The tatami room upgrade is worth every yen.
Read review
It doesn't get better than this
Luxury at its finest in old Japan — a hotel that hides in plain sight, tucked behind a moss-soaked garden path. The kind of place that re-calibrates what a five-star feels like.
Read review
Is this the best hotel in Nara?
Might be the best service I've ever had. Staff remember your name, your coffee, and the fact that you tilted your head at a piece of art on the way in.

A luxury escape in Shiodome
Hilton's top Tokyo property and it lives up to the billing. The bay-view rooms are a quiet show — Tokyo glitters, you stay put.

Grand Hyatt Tokyo
Roppongi Hills — that's where I want to be. The hotel is a workhorse, but the location does most of the heavy lifting.
Read review
ANA Business Class (Old Product)
A solid product compared to most — but after flying Singapore Air in business this year, the bar moved. Still worth booking on points.

Hyatt Regency Bellevue
Bellevue's best value hotel with a killer location — right above a mall, steps from the park, and the atrium lobby is genuinely impressive.
