The Seabird Hotel Review

After seeing the Seabird while on the Pacific Surfliner to LA a few years ago, I was excited to visit and check out the city of Oceanside.

G﻿reat hotel for a relaxing beach getaway with tons of shops & local restaurants to try.   We booked a King deluxe room for $359 per night (plus taxes & fees) and used a suite upgrade for the Grand Ocean Suite. Getting a complimentary upgrade to the Grand Ocean Suite Oceanfront, priced at $1,200 per night during our stay, was a treat.

﻿Highly recommend the Seabird for a quick long weekend stay.

Thompson Denver Hotel Review

N﻿eeded a LoDo hotel to attend the NBA game. With a personable staff, spacious room & good location near shops & restaurant would definitely return.

Our one-night stay was $339.61 ($271.80 rate plus fees & taxes).

Two days before arrival 1 King Bed was listed for $716. Executive Suite ($916) and Skyline Suite ($966) were also available. The hotel was unavailable the prior night. Peak pricing was in effect as the 1 King Bed was listed for 23k points.

Grand Hyatt San Francisco Hotel Review

We were looking for a place to stay overnight in San Fran for less than $300. Our normal hotels were almost $500 and after some searching, we stumbled upon the Grand Hyatt San Fran which was priced at $275 (sans taxes).

With a location close to Market & Union, close to several train stations, shops and restaurants, it is a good home base for a few days. While the rooms are not too special, the front desk and Grand Lounge staff is very personable which makes it a great pick. While a good stay, I will test out other hotels in the area before returning to the Grand Hyatt.

Our luxury hotel in downtown Washington, D.C., is a few blocks from the National Mall, Smithsonian Museums, and historical monuments. Immerse yourself in the iconic sights, unlimited shopping, and alluring nightlife of the nation's capital. Whether you're visiting for business or pleasure, you'll enjoy exceptional comfort and service and a direct connection to the city via the Metro Center station. - 

Grand Hyatt Washington Review

We spent $1,131.68 ($282.92 per night) along with 24k points for a four-night stay in a Grand Suite. Due to issues during check-in (including the room not being ready 4 hours after check-in), the hotel credited back 15k points. 

This category 4 hotel has direct access to the Metro center, a central DC location, and a great staff which makes it a nice option for a long weekend in DC.

"Located just minutes from Washington Dulles International Airport and a short Metro ride to DC, our Herndon, VA hotel is conveniently located for both business and leisure travelers. Enjoy door-to-door service with our complimentary airport shuttle that runs on a set schedule to IAD. Ensure your travel is relaxing and seamless with our newly-renovated guestrooms, inviting atmosphere, and award-winning staff that is always here to help." - 

The hotel airport shuttle runs every 30 minutes (:10 and :40). 

Hyatt Regency Dulles Hotel Review

After arriving on a red-eye, it was great to catch the free hotel shuttle (Ubers were $22 for the less than 2-mile journey) to this airport hotel.  By airport hotel standards, for 5,00 Hyatt points a night (Category 1), this is a great base, with spacious rooms & friendly staff. 

The Flag Shinsaibashi is a 3.5-star hotel located in the heart of Osaka, Japan. The hotel is conveniently located near Shinsaibashi Station, making it easy to access all that Osaka has to offer. 

The hotel's rooms are spacious and comfortable and are equipped with all the amenities you need for a relaxing stay. The hotel also has a rooftop terrace with stunning views of the city.

The Flag Shinsaibashi Hotel Review

If you are looking for an Osaka hotel catering to tourists from the West, located in the heart of Dotonbori, this is a great place to stay.

Overall I was 'meh' about this hotel. While the room was nice & I appreciated the laundry service, it felt lacking in the Japanese culture. I would be unlikely to stay here again unless I needed to be in the vicinity for a specific reason.

Miyako Hotel Hakata is a 5-star hotel located in the heart of Hakata, Japan. The hotel is directly connected to Hakata Station, making it the perfect place to stay for business or leisure travelers.

The Gate Hotel Tokyo by HULIC Hotel Review

Good Tokyo base hotel as it is close to several train stations, and many restaurants. We booked through a travel agent & enjoyed our two-night stay in our 13th (top) floor room.

Park Hyatt Jakarta features 220 rooms as well as luxury hotel dining and entertainment options. Our hotel will be a haven for intimate and stylish events including weddings, corporate functions, and social gatherings.

Park Hyatt Jakarta Hotel Review

We were excited to stay at Park Hyatt's first and only location in Indonesia. Using 60,000 Hyatt points for our 4-night stay, along with a suite upgrade we enjoyed our Park Suite Deluxe room. We were greeted by name by all of the staff, and over the course of the 4 days, the staff remembered small details about our preferences that were incorporated throughout. Park Hyatt truly encompasses the #LuxuryisPersonal brand & we will definitely stay here again in the future.

Hyatt Regency JFK Airport At Resorts World New York Hotel Review

This is a great airport hotel, albeit noting that the hotel does not provide an airport shuttle. Rooms are nicely appointed & the Regency lounge has a good variety of food. Would stay here again if I had more than a 16-hour layover at JFK. Overall a fantastic stay & I would consider staying here as a base for access to Brooklyn, with the A train nearby.

Day Trip Tips: How to Travel More Without Breaking the Bank 

"Set on 40 acres on Ka’anapali Beach, the completely-reimagined Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa is a getaway in paradise. Enjoy Hawaiian hospitality with stargazing and a traditional nightly 

, stay loose on the links with oceanfront golf, or unwind at our beachfront spa." - 

Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa Hotel Review

The resort is in a great location and has tons of activities and restaurants which could allow someone to never need to leave during their stay. Great calming stay, would definitely return.

Booked a King Bed (Golf and Mountain View) under Hyatt Prive. A week before check-in an Ocean View Suite became available and I applied an SWU to the reservation. The day prior to check-in we were upgraded to an Oceanfront Suite.

"A stunning fusion of modern design with stylish oriental flair, Mandarin Oriental, New York features elegant guestrooms and suites—all with breathtaking views of Manhattan and Five-Star hospitality." - 

Mandarin Oriental, New York Review

, we spent three nights at the Mandarin Oriental New York. After our first 

, we were excited about our stay in New York.  The MO NY has a great location, and great staff however a small room with non-blackout curtains, an uncomfortable bed at this price point, we would not stay here again.

Booked a “one more night” promo, which was no longer available closer to the check-in date; where the best available rate for the Hudson River Room was $1,495 per night.

The hotel opened in 2003 with 244 rooms across floors 35 - 54 of the Deutsche Bank Center. 

"Park Hyatt New York is a luxury five-star hotel in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, located directly across from Carnegie Hall and one block from Central Park. Spacious guest rooms and suites offer floor-to-ceiling views of the city and spa-like amenities. Find serenity at Spa Nalai, explore our curated art collection, or host an event in one of our unforgettable venues." - 

Park Hyatt New York Review

Booked a two-night stay in a King Bed for 50k points before the dynamic pricing went into effect. The week of check-in, the standard King Bed room was listed for $1,325 each night or 35k points. With a great location near Central Park, along with personable staff and modern rooms, we will definitely stay here (on points) again when in New York.

"Enjoy being steps away from lower Manhattan’s waterfront, retail shops, exciting restaurant scene, ferry and subway hubs, and more at Hyatt Centric Wall Street New York. Here is where you can easily explore the best of New York City then return to a spacious, lofty, sun-filled room." - 

Hyatt Centric Wall Street New York Review

Originally booked at the Conrad NY Downtown hotel, we changed to the Hyatt Centric Wall Street as it was priced significantly cheaper and allowed us to add 4 nights towards 2023's globalist status. Located in the quiet financial district, close to restaurants and the subway, it was a great base for 4 nights in NY. While we enjoyed our stay, there are so many other hotels in NY we would want to visit prior to returning.

Booked Monday, August 22 for an August 26th stay with a rate of $198/night for a King Bed Deluxe. Interestingly, three days before check-in a Centric Premier Suite was added to the list of available rooms. The day before check-in, we received a complimentary upgrade to a 7th Centric Suite (of 17 floors).

"Colorful and lively, Mandalay Bay’s resort, suite, and luxury collections offer more of everything you love. From larger spaces to natural wood and stone décor, these exotic retreats have all of the comforts of home. For the ultimate in indulgence, our one-to-four bedroom Luxury Collection also offers a true Las Vegas escape beyond your most extravagant expectations." - 

Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino Hotel Review

, we booked a three-night weekend stay at Mandalay Bay to be close to Allegiant Stadium for the Raiders game. As an M Life Rewards member, benefits are waived resort fee, however no bottle of water. I would stay here again if prices were less than $100 per night when attending events at Allegiant Stadium due to walkability ease. If prices exceed $200 per night, I would rather stay at the Four Seasons (top floors) for a better overall Vegas experience.

"Crockfords heralds a new standard for Las Vegas luxury overlooking the world-famous Strip. Talk-of-the-town shopping and nightlife, globally inspired fine dining, star-studded residency performances, and next-generation gaming are steps away." - 

Crockfords Las Vegas, LXR Hotels & Resorts Review

Before our stay, I read many reviews filled with disdain for the Crockford Las Vegas. After staying at the Hilton and Conrad I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed our time here.

Booked a two-night weekend stay in a Strip View Superior King Room via Amex Fine Hotels and Resorts for $562.94 which included a 25% nightly rate discount.

After staying at the three Resorts World hotels, for $250/night, I would definitely stay at the Crockford for better service, better amenities, and an overall better Resorts World stay.

"Discover Hotel Kabuki in San Francisco’s Japantown—just steps from the famed Fillmore Auditorium. Blending modern Asian and Western influences, Hotel Kabuki offers a unique neighborhood experience in the heart of San Francisco. This boutique hotel features hip interiors and a spectacular lofted-beam lobby that radiates a lounge vibe. The hotel’s highly acclaimed Nari restaurant presents a California-inspired Thai dining experience. From serene guest rooms and a well-equipped gym to event spaces that flex to accommodate any group, the Hotel Kabuki is the perfect home base for your San Francisco experience." - 

Hotel Kabuki - JDV by Hyatt Review

Over the years after visiting San Fran's Japantown several times, staying at the Hotel Kabuki was added to the bucket list. 

We booked a three-night stay in a Loft Suite ($334/ per night + taxes) through our travel agent and had a wonderful stay. From the amazing service to the spacious room to the expansive gym I am in love with this property and would go out of my way to stay here again.

"Situated in the center of the strip, Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas offers luxury, grandeur and True Waldorf Service" - 

Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas Review

, we Ubered to Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas for a one-night stay. After spending one night at the Waldorf Astoria New York when I was a teenager, I was excited to revisit this hotel brand. 

We booked a Strip View Room (506 sq ft) through a travel agent and were provided a complimentary upgrade to a Waldorf Junior Suite (646 sq ft). At check-in we were offered an upgrade to a Panorama Strip View One-Bedroom Suite (764 sq ft) for an additional $150, however, we declined.

Our one night cost $480 ($379 rate + $101 taxes and fees) which is an average price for the hotel. We stayed on Thursday night, and weekend rates (Friday/Saturday night) can command upwards of $800 per night plus the taxes and fees.

Sadly, the Waldorf Astoria Las Vegas (previously the Mandarin Oriental Las Vegas) did not live up to my memory of my stay at the Waldorf New York when I was younger. Overall, we had a great stay at a nice hotel with great staff members. With so many hotels in Vegas, we would only stay here again if there was a need to be in the particular vicinity for an event.

'There’s nothing in the world like Las Vegas—and there’s absolutely nothing in Las Vegas like Wynn." - 

Encore at Wynn Review

Booked a one-night stay in an Encore Resort King (nightly rate of $220 + taxes & fees) through a travel agent (Virtuoso) and got upgraded to Encore Panoramic King (nightly rate $263 + taxes & fees).  Coming from the Four Seasons where I felt taken care of, the Encore at Wynn just feels like another Las Vegas strip hotel that didn't provide more than a spacious room with a view.

"Above the trendy Brickell Avenue – find the best of both big city adventure and a tropical getaway – arrive at our lifestyle-inspired lobby, savour the fun and flavourful dining experiences, and spend the day with a swim or sway in a hammock within our two-acre sun-kissed sanctuary." - 

Four Seasons Hotel Miami Review

, we were excited for our 2nd Four Seasons experience. Four Seasons is known for its consistent service in its portfolio which was evident between our two stays.

We booked a 3-night stay at Four Seasons Miami for $1,200 ($380/night) under their "One More Night" promotion. Booking through the Four Seasons Preferred Partner program our stay came with daily breakfast ($35 per person), a complimentary upgrade, a welcome treat, and a $100 stay credit.

Located in Brickell Key the Four Seasons Miami is a great base for those wishing to be a bit farther away from the city center. Exemplary service coupled with comfortable facilities provided us with a wondering 3-night stay. We would stay here again when visiting Miami.

"JW Marriott Marquis Miami infuses sophistication, design, art, fashion, and technology into a diverse landscape of business, meeting, and pleasure travel pursuits. Located in the heart of downtown Miami, close to the city's exciting Wynwood Art District, the Frost Science Museum, the Perez Art Museum, and the world-renowned Miami Design District." - 

JW Marriott Marquis Miami Review

Definitely, an older property, however, this property is nicer and more updated than the 

At check-in, after I told Mohammed I had previously stayed at the attached 

 boutique hotel, he said that while the JW was nice, it was not that nice and to taper my expectations by not comparing the two. We used 40k points for a one-night stay when cash rates were $300/night. In the future, at the $300 price point, I would stay at Beaux-Arts, an updated property, with access to the same facilities.

"Mandarin Oriental, Miami is a unique urban resort located on the three-acre, exclusive island of Brickell Key. Providing lush open spaces and light sea breezes, the Five-star hotel and spa offer an ideal location within walking distance of the finest shopping, dining, and nightlife experiences in Miami while providing the ultimate tranquil oasis for an escape. All guestrooms and suites come equipped with private balconies from which guests can enjoy stunning views of Biscayne Bay or Brickell Skyline. The hotel also boasts high-energy Food & Beverage concepts with breathtaking views and alfresco options." - 

Mandarin Oriental Miami Review

Book a stay through Mandarin Oriental's "One More Night" promotion, which offered a complimentary third night when you book three nights. Under their Fans of MO program our booking came with daily breakfast ($83), one time dining credit ($100) and a late check-out (1pm).

My friend spoke highly of the MO Miami for years and I was excited for our three night stay there. We had a wonderful time and now have a new bar for luxury hospitality. Excited for our upcoming stay at MO New York in the fall.

"The JW Marriott Miami is located in the heart of Brickell, Miami's hot destination for dining, shopping, and nightlife, and is located a short walk away from the city's newest shopping and entertainment destination, Brickell City Centre. The sophisticated business hotel boasts 296 guest rooms, the latest technology, and over 25,000 sq ft of flexible and recently redesigned meeting space." - 

JW Marriott Miami Review

Spent 40k points on a one-night stay during our two weeks in Miami. While the staff was attentive and courteous, the dated room made the stay feel more like a Holiday Inn than Marriott's luxurious JW brand. Rooms on the 7th floor are updated and bookable as an "Inspired" Guest Room. For 40k points or less than $250 a night, I would book a stay in the Inspired room instead.

"Let your taste for adventure take flight at Seattle Airport Marriott. After landing at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, hop on the complimentary shuttle service to our hotel less than a mile away." - 

Seattle Airport Marriott Review

, the Seattle Airport Marriott is the nicest airport hotel we've stayed in. With a complimentary shuttle, modern rooms, and great staff, we would stay here again when connecting through Seattle.

We paid $541.75 for a two-night “Stay for Breakfast” rate, which was $800 the week of check-in. Rates here range from $160 to $664 per night.

Note: The hotel has 9 floors in two "towers". Atrium-facing rooms will be on floors 3,4 or 5.
