A hotel is more than just accommodation – it can significantly shape the travel experience. This page compiles all hotel reviews from miles-around: personal accounts from four- and five-star hotels worldwide, rated on room quality, location, service, breakfast, executive lounge, and value for money. Hotels in Asia, Europe, Africa, and North and Central America were reviewed – including Hilton properties such as Conrad, Waldorf Astoria, DoubleTree, and Hampton, the Crowne Plaza Changi Airport in Singapore, and the Radisson Hotel Szklarska Poręba in the Giant Mountains, as well as independent resorts like the Ocean Riviera Paradise in Mexico. These reviews are aimed at discerning travelers, families, Hilton Honors members, and frequent flyers who want to plan their hotel bookings with confidence.
As HHonors Gold members, we had three Hilton hotels to choose from for our stay in Kuala Lumpur. We chose the DoubleTree by Hilton Kuala Lumpur due to its good value and central location. Read our review to find out what our impressions of the hotel were.
Our second hotel on the island of Langkawi was the Berjaya Langkawi Resort. Upon our arrival at 2 p.m., our room, or rather the Rainforest Chalet we had booked, was not yet ready. The reception process was very unprofessional for a 4-star hotel and took forever. Perhaps we were simply unlucky with the staff.
After landing on the dream island of Langkawi, we were met at the airport by our personal shuttle service from The Danna Langkawi hotel. They took our luggage and escorted us to the car. During the ride, we were offered drinks and a cool towel to freshen up. Even though our journey from Singapore wasn't that long, something refreshing is always nice in this heat.
For our stay in Singapore, we had reserved a room at the Grand Mercure Singapore Roxy for three nights. After arriving at the airport, we went to the Ground Transportation desk on the arrivals level. There, we received information about the departure time and location of the free hotel shuttle. Unfortunately, we missed the bus by 10 minutes and had to wait another 50 minutes.
Finally, the time had come! It was time to check into our suite at the Tower Club at lebua Hotel. Read our review to find out how we liked this luxury hotel in the heart of Bangkok.
