In the very chic rue Saint-Honoré, near Place Vendôme, upscale boutiques and fashion houses, suddenly, a place appears. Like a luxurious palace which crushes neither the soul nor the delicacy. Welcome to the Mandarin Oriental. Distinguished, graceful, magical. Global score: 9.1 / 10

First Impression 9/10

Sometimes we lack metaphor ... Like a surprise in the eyes of a child ...? Much more! We appreciate the discreet entrance of art deco inspiration on rue Saint-Honoré where a bellhop waits, name or first name in mouth, to welcome and immediately find the common word with the newly introduced host, the language of connivance, so delicate , if mandarin at the back ... Then you have to catch your breath for a moment in the hall paved with crystal, with the golden ceiling. We feel like we have arrived somewhere, but where? A place like a temple maybe, where prayers go up to heaven. Between mystique and reality, we walk, carried a few centimeters from the ground, escorted by a cloud of 135 Swarovski crystal butterflies hanging in the lobby, a nod to the number of rooms and suites of the Palace.

The Mandarin Oriental is Parisian, provided that Paris means the big Everything. Its atmosphere is serene, its decoration, contemporary and warm, nature is everywhere. Basically, it is a very 21st century palace, located in the fashion capital, and nowhere else in France, for an immemorial marriage between Parisian elegance and the legendary service of Asia. For everyone, the experience is unique because it is unique. Here, we know and we feel. It is a place that crushes your heart at the idea of ​​leaving, without knowing exactly if you have just attached yourself to the grace of a plate, to the thickness of a door. , to the empathy of the complex, serene, soft and energetic mauve of certain walls, or to the thoughtfulness of a maid who quietly prepares the blanket with the majesty of a dream maker.

The strong point: The garden 9/10

If the place takes your breath away, the lush garden will immediately give you the oxygen you need ... A small urban jungle with its green wall 6 storeys high, its thirty trees and its hundreds of shrubs and perennials, the garden is transformed into an enchanted forest with its trees adorned with gold and light for the end of the year celebrations ...

The rooms 9/10

Art deco and rectilinear, purple and marvelous for the rooms and suites. Some communicate. The suites have their living room. The bathrooms are white powers that cast their beautiful light on the cocooned guest like in an egg. The towels are unforgettable soft and thick, and the courtesy products are breathtaking. Ah! Diptych! They dared to use the beloved brand to perfume baths and showers. Ecstasy continues! We appreciate the generosity, the cleanliness without any shadow other than that of the enveloping sleeves of a Frette bathrobe… The wardrobes are made of beautiful wood, the hangers make the clothes smile, and the silence is impeccable. Several rooms and suites have magnificent terraces with a view of the interior garden or of Paris and its monuments. From the first rays of sun,

3 tables, 1 bar, 1 gourmet counter 9/10

At Mandarin Oriental, the choice is already an occupation ... And reading restaurant maps, a journey. Chef Thierry Marx, ace of molecular cuisine and generosity of thought, -which, contrary to what one might think, goes perfectly together-, offers a wide range of gastronomic-human experiences. The present moment, okay, but we are not animals, so Thierry Marx thinks a cuisine capable of bringing people together, of reviving in them emotion and curiosity, therefore emotion and sharing.

The two-star “Sur Mesure” restaurant by Thierry Marx is a sensory journey combining technique and emotion. The frame, like a white cocoon, was designed in blank canvas on which the kitchen and the mind that receives it will write a score. Very contemporary music sometimes: The green asparagus with candied lemon, tapioca and yellow wine sauce is a Marxian example of flavors that never cease to strike, to transform into the mouth until they match, to end in amazement. The organic egg with bacon from Colonnata and watercress cream is reassuring and delicious from the start. In the same way, we indulge ourselves in front of the Pan-fried veal tenderloin with mild spices, mashed peas and peppered artichokes. We are again struck by the Risoni in ink, cuttlefish tagliatelle and crunchy vegetables. Bumped brilliantly, as if our taste buds did not know until then not capable of this flexibility: we have just broadened their horizon! That's wonderful. Downside for the chocolate fondant, not fondant at all, for this time anyway ...

Price: 85 euros for the weekday lunch menu with 4 courses.

At “Camélia”, the chef reinterprets classic French cuisine in a soothing atmosphere, facing the garden: Cod with mother-of-pearl, braised pak choi and Japanese rice flavored with yuzukosho.

“L'Honoré” gives pride of place to accessible, seasonal cuisine in the discreet alcoves of the lobby.

Bar 8 offers cocktails and a chic street food menu, and extends into the hotel garden: “Le cocktail rose” is the Bellini de Paris: it does it all. To fall in love. Fall cheerful. Fall high with the “Pink Cocktail”: raspberry puree, Chambard and champagne…

Finally, the Cake Shop, a gourmet counter, offers great classics “revisited” of French pastry by Pastry Chef Adrien Bozzolo. Aaaaah! the Saint Honoré!

The Spa 9/10

Here, everything is travel and sensations ... Entering the 900m2 Spa at Mandarin Oriental means understanding Oriental Zen in its figurative definition: calm and serenity. The 14-meter swimming pool bordered by a wall of water and the alcove-benches that run along the pool like poles of withdrawal make this place a pretty landscape. The touches of purple, a rare or non-existent color in its natural state, bring a double sensation of warm freshness. They guide serenity. Butterflies dance on the walls, accompanying your calm, intimate, protected swim.

SPA treatments take place in a private suite with its own jacuzzi and hammam with oriental herbs. Exceptional treatments, they are personalized thanks to Oriental Mandarin oils and combine modern and ancestral practices for an unforgettable experience.

The treatment to be tested ...

“The Oriental Essence treatment”! A fully personalized massage. Pressure intensity, areas to be treated, everything is first considered with the therapist who accompanies you to your private suite and to your unforgettable massage. On the way to a rebalancing of body and mind (you can even personalize the music, finally)! The ritual begins with an entry deep inside, with the passage of hot oshiboris, a massage of the back, legs, neck, shoulders, scalp, face. No pressure point can resist the harmony of the sounds that fleetingly punctuate the treatment. The awakening is a dawn for the light nature that we are, brought back to life ... A tea? Or a pastry? We say yes to everything. A unique massage, which we do not get used to, because it varies as much as we do.

From 250 euros for a 1h20 treatment during the week.

The new kid: Relax Your Mind treatment at the Spa, 1h45 of pure happiness to free yourself from tensions ...

100% Sustainability: 9/10

"Acting responsibly": this is the guiding principle of the place which follows the "Naturally better" program. Better for the planet, of course, with the elimination of single-use plastic and the implementation of local initiatives: vegetable garden on the roof of the hotel, reduction of the volume of laundry, drip irrigation system -drop. The grounds and gardens of the hotel are watered only at night and in the early morning to minimize waste through evaporation ...

On the roof of the Mandarin Oriental, 100,000 bees, agents for protecting biodiversity, produce their honey, served to customers or even offered to those who do not require the systematic replacement of their sheets and towels ...

Canine experience: 10/10

The welcome reserved for dogs in this palace is as high as that reserved for children: Unforgettable. Archie, the Managing Director's border terrier, seems to have briefed his master very well… On the dog-friendly room-service menu, “Farm chicken supreme” or “Minced steak” ... Served with steamed vegetables or basmati rice?

We would like to leave with ...

The bouquets of the oriental Mandarin florist Sophie Chamard-Bois, ornaments which seem to be made by the hand of a God of colors and souls, and which grow according to the vases, everywhere in the hotel.

The experience to do: the Parisian apartment

There are six stars to be invented. The latest of the suites with terraces, here is the incredible Parisian Apartment of 430 m² and its imposing landscaped terrace of 230 m² which offers several atmospheres and spaces to adapt in a lush green decor. Let's start with it, and its possibilities of idleness, lying down, sitting, oneself vegetated. Oxygen should I say? The variety of plants and trees in the container gives the place the feeling that we were not mistaken: magnolias, charms, climbing hydrangeas, ferns and star jasmines, nature here has the right to express itself. And not just human nature. This French garden with an ipe floor gives the Parisian apartment a depth other than that of the exterior. There is soul hidden between the leaves. And invisible elves who summon your well-being.

In the Parisian Apartment, there is no rest at rest: each piece of furniture arouses envy, curiosity, relaxation. This shepherdess deserves to sit there. Yes, but that sofa? From place to place, we wander around, anxious not to miss anything and then amazed at our own well-being. The objects signed by young artists touch you to the heart like every attention of the rigorous and tender Service.

We love the layout of the place so much that we owe to the French architectural duo Gilles & Boissier. 2 bedrooms with bathrooms, a spacious reception area, a dining room, an equipped kitchen. The Haussmannian moldings are deliberately broken by the modern door jambs, the through light plays on the luminous fabrics, between the electric curtains with which we have not finished having fun creating atmospheres. Yes, the atmosphere here is a kind of permanent dialogue between desire and envy. Do not struggle when everything becomes a question: a walk-in shower close to perfection (why close!) Or a bathtub that does not really remind people of the desire to take a bath? Shades of white and white, lighting that wants you good. The bathroom will become your best friend.

And the lamps! Wall lamps, reading lights, they sweep the place in their own way, sometimes marking out a corner of withdrawal, other times opening a conversation. Like the door panels, thick like heavy eyelids that sometimes close around you like arms.

A single arm to extend, moreover, to reach a coffee maker close to you, a popcorn machine, unless you prefer a beautiful cast iron teapot or a sublime champagne from the minibar. You have to live here for a while to believe it: luxury is not a decadent immersion, it is a golden thread that repairs and weaves between people who love each other and who nestle there a kind of memory.

The sixth star of this apartment floats, we hope, above its terrace which, at night, full of light, when we move away in space, becomes one more firefly which watches over Paris. Masterful!

Nightly rate

Out of price of course: 32,000 euros ...

What makes a luxury hotel exceptional?

Brian Dunlap·Updated March 18, 2011

I work on a series of tubes.

A number of factors that matter to any hotel matter to a greater degree and scale when it comes to luxury hotels

• Amenities
• Facilities
• Location
• Dining
• Service

are relevant to a business or family hotel as much as they are to a luxury hotel. The nature of the above is what would set a luxury property apart, though. With a luxury hotel they are expected to be of a higher, distinguishable standard.

That last one - service - is what would set a particular luxury property apart from other luxury hotels, and truly make it exceptional in my opinion. Personalization of service is key.

• Were they expecting your arrival?
• Do they greet you by name (not just at check-in, but during the course of your stay)?
• Do they quickly learn and recognize your preferences (with anything from the time of day housekeeping services your room to what kinds of pillows you like)?
• Do they recognize and acknowledge your being a return guest or member of the hotel's loyalty program?
• Are genuine attempts made to accommodate requests (for instance, switching to a different room or getting an early check-in or late check-out)?
• Are service inquiries responded to in a timely manner (be it asking for an ironing board if one is not present, or extra towels)?

... and a great many other aspects of the stay that relate to service. In that sense, it's really the staff and management that set a luxury hotel apart as exceptional. Many hotels can have fine amenities and excellent facilities; beautiful rooms and an excellent location; great restaurants or dining options on-property. For a luxury hotel to stand apart as exceptional among other luxury hotels, though, it's always been the quality of service that I've valued most.

What is the best luxury hotel or resort in the world?

Quinn Ng·November 14, 2017

Miles and points hoarder

My favorite resort is the less known Intercontinental Sun Peninsula in Danang, Vietnam. It is located in the peninsula known as Monkey Mountain.

The rooms are spacious and all have views of the private bay.

We stayed for 4 nights and never got tired of catching the stunning sunrises and sunsets from our room.

We usually ate breakfast at one of the restaurants, in one of the inverted conical dining booths.

It felt so peaceful even though the restaurant was always busy. After a satisfying meal, we usually took the cable car to go down the beach.

We enjoyed strolling along the private beach.

I especially loved swimming at the infinity pool.

At night, we used our complimentary vouchers for some drinks by the bar.

Service was phenomenal. It rivaled the Japanese hospitality that we came to love during our stay in Japan. It was our first time in Danang but definitely won’t be our last. In fact, we are already planning a return trip in a couple of months.

It normally costs about $400 per night but we redeemed points for 4 nights free. Here are two detailed reviews if you’re interested.

Why are luxury hotels so expensive?

Mohamed Ali·September 14, 2019

Hospitality Consultant

Definitely these hotels add value to the prices. They offer a different atmosphere, service quality, room sizes & gadgets, well-trained staff interactions with the guests, etc..etc..etc. Some of the hotel chains have created luxury cultures, and call them “Our standard” to stand tall among the rest, and sell their products & services at those prices. So creating different class among the guests and serving at such high prices.

In the end, it is not the extra luxury that creates guest experiences. One can still remember an experience in a 2-star hotel, and not remember having stayed at a super-luxury hotel.

How do I get discounts on luxury hotels?

O. Wisnu·

August 21, 2016

Top tier member at several hotel chainsI used to be more into cheap & comfort hotel before, but after understanding how things work, I now spent (on the average) over 50 nights at 5* hotels per year. I found out several ways that always save me money at 5* hotels. Here are my tips to get lowest price at 5* (if seeing the website price is too expensive): 1.

Certain hotels has deep discount if you work with certain companies (even if the trip is for leisure), and the price relatively flat all the year (except some blackout date such as NYE). Try getting this approach first. In my case, I had few hotels >25% cheaper than best rate I can find elsewhere. Another approach is, use your friend’s corporate rate for your stay (you may be asked for ID but mostly hotels wont bother). 2. Enroll to all hotel membership. Everytime you stay at certain(more)

What is the most luxurious hotel that you have ever stayed in and how was your experience there?

Stephanie V·July 11, 2013

had to add more pages to my passport

If luxury means absolute top-level service and comfort, coupled with attention to detail, I think the Four Seasons Hualalai, on the Big Island of Hawaii, is probably the most luxurious hotel I have ever stayed in. I have stayed there probably three or four times, although not for a few years.

To begin with, of course, it is a Four Seasons. I would estimate that the guest-to-staff ratio is no higher than 2:1, and the caliber of the staff is very high. So the jobs pay reasonably well for service jobs and the hotel has its pick of employees. Also, it is in Hawaii. All luxury hotels in Hawaii start with a huge advantage because of the immense natural beauty of the landscape and the benefits of the climate: open-air lobbies, exotic landscaping, etc.

The experience of staying at the Four Seasons Hualalai is really lovely. When you arrive they drape you with a nicely made kukui nut necklace and hand you a cup of ice cold fruit juice to sip on while you are checking in. Cheerful safari-suited bellmen put your bags on a golf cart and drive you to the pod your room is in, making conversation and telling you about the hotel features the whole time.

Your room is large, cool, spare, and elegant, with dark wood, a dark stone floor, wool and sisal rugs, very high thread count linens, and every amenity you could need. Downstairs in each pod there is a laundry room for guest use, with a washer and dryer and laundry soap, and of course there is no charge for it.

As you wander around the grounds it is easy to get lost because the pods of guest rooms mostly look alike. Here's where that high staff-to-guest ratio comes in: you can't be lost for more than 30 seconds before a staff member comes along and notices that you look confused, and directs you to your desired location.

The gym/spa is fabulous. I confess I have spent a lot of time there. I took my first Pilates lesson at that hotel sometime in about 2001, I think. I have availed myself of massages, pedicures, hair treatments, facials, tennis and swimming lessons, you name it. The massage treatments include some that are uniquely Hawaiian like an exfoliation treatment using ground-up Kona coffee beans and vanilla (I smelled like a really great latte for hours after that one).

There is a beach, of course, with umbrellas and attendants, where the teenagers take surfing lessons and outrigger lessons, and several swimming pools. I liked spending time at the adult pool, where there is limited shrieking and splashing (and where I once saw Heather Locklear -- my husband was very envious because he was in a meeting that afternoon). Not only do cocktail waiters regularly cruise the pool area to see if you want another mai tai, other attendants circulate with spray bottles of Evian and spritz you to keep you cool. (I am not making this up.) There are three or four restaurants on-site, plus a thatched-roof bar right on the beach. There's an open-air basketball court where I heard another guest's children say they had played a pickup game with Denzel Washington.

It is the kind of place where no detail will be spared to make you comfortable and help you relax and have fun.

I've stayed at luxury hotels that are glitzier than the Four Seasons Hualalai, but never experienced anything like the level of pure service, comfort, and cosseting that I found there.1.2K viewsView 5 upvotes51

• Fast, easy, discreet Check-in & Check-out
• The room offered is exact what a guest wanted (in terms of category, classification, physical location in the hotel, bed size…)
• Amazing service: Guests should get the feeling that they are known and valued. Your staff should know them by name, be friendly (smiling!) and respectful.
• Housekeeping and gardeners should be quiet and not interfere with a guest’s enjoyment of the property, maintenance personnel should appear at guest’s room within minutes etc.
• Outstanding hotel dining: great breakfast (quality and quantity wise), 24 hours room service.
• Guest activities and amenities: High-end spa treatments, pool, 24-hour fitness center, laundry service, a concierge who knows more than Google…
• Exclusive designer interiors, haute couture styling with fabulous artsy features and a state-of-the-art technology
• Luxury room features: High-quality furnishings with opulent, expensive touches, attention to aesthetic detail, a quiet room with fresh air, original art on the walls, windows that open, robes and slippers, adequate storage, hangers, desk, reading chair, charging points, safe, good-size flat-screen TV, iPhone/iPod dock, coffee maker, full-length mirror, effective heating/AC system…And of course a King bed with a good mattress, and high-quality sheets.
• Luxury bathrooms: Sufficient counter space, good water pressure, prestige or artisan toiletries, plenty of fluffy, high-quality towels, makeup mirror that lights, enough racks or hooks, ventilation…

In the end, “luxury” is in the eye of the beholder. Decide what’s most important to your comfort and enjoyment, and ask specific questions about potential accommodations until you’re promised what you want.157 views

Considering price as no object, which is the best Luxury Hotel to stay in Goa?

Jill D'souza·Updated October 19, 2016

A graphic and web designer

I have been to Bogmallo Beach Resort, Goa in the month of April and must say it is an amazing location. It’s one of the 5 star resorts in Goa, right on the Bogmallo beach in South Goa. Even better, its just a few minutes away from the Goa airport. We really needed a break from the daily routine and that’s when we decided to stay at a resort for a day or two to refresh our senses. We looked up the internet to see which are the good resorts in South Goa and came across Bogmallo Beach Resort. Had heard about the beauty of this place before but had never been there. So we went ahead and booked one of their chalets online. We stayed there for two days and WOW! It was a wonderful experience. The views of the Arabian sea, the cosy room, the spa treatment, the authentic Goan food and hotel service.

Which is the best luxury hotel in Bangkok?

Pas Sean·July 27, 2019

Interested in cities and urban economics

Thanks for the A2A.

You are spoiled for choices when it comes to the range of accommodation in Bangkok. There are hotels to suit every budget. There are dozens or so hotels that fit the mould of luxury, including local & international chains and luxury boutique resorts.

It’s impossible to list them all, let alone single out one or two. Hopefully this list will give you some idea.

Mandarin Oriental Mandarin Oriental, Bangkok - TripAdvisor.

This is probably one of the most well known luxury hotels. Opened as The Oriental in 1876 by Danish businessman Hans Niels Andersen, now one of the two flagship properties of Hong Kong based Mandarin Oriental Group. The hotel entertained many famous guests over the years and was voted the world’s best hotels for many years in a row in the 80s and 90s.

The hotel also boasts a two Michelin star French restaurant Le Normandie.

The Siam, one of the most exclusive hotels occupying a 1.2ha site on the banks of the Chao Phraya. It was converted from a family home to a luxury boutique hotel with 39 suite and pool villas. The design fused traditional Thai vernaculars with Art Deco. Designed by Bill Bensley.

Sukhothai Hotel

Hotel Muse by M Gallery - located in the exclusive Langsuan neighbourhood. This is one of the highly rated luxury boutique hotels. It’s worth going just to check out Medici Kitchen.

Park Hyatt @ Central Embassy

This hotel is located in Ploenchit on top of Central Embassy mall, next to the British Embassy (hence the name). It was opened in 2017 and the first Park Hyatt Hotel collection in Thailand.

Have you ever received poor service at a 5-star luxury hotel?

Cody Shah·September 7, 2018I blog about living in luxury hotels for my living

For someone who spends about 250 nights in Luxury hotels - I feel I am qualified to answer the same.

Criteria -

Category of 5 star

1. Not all 5-star hotels are same. They have a different category within them. St Regis hotels and JW Marriott hotels are both luxury hotels but it is automatically expected to have much grander service at St. Regis as compared to JW Marriott.

Brand Ethos -

Different brands of the hotel give premium to different parts of service and they carry different identity. You might like the taste of some and you might not like the taste of few.

Eg. W hotels, Curio collection, Andaz hotels etc

Some work towards more novelty and edgy factor. Some prefer providing high tech. Some prefer to provide high opulence while other provide simplistic living in the middle of the nature cut off from all sort of mobile phone, internet etc.

New Hotel vs Old Hotel vs Dated Hotel

New/Refurbished - if Hotels is extremely new and has recently opened or is in process of being refurbished - expect few hiccups as there might be small issues that haven’t been worked out.

Old hotel - if Hotel has been around for a while, expect it to have smoothen out its kinks and winks. If there are recurring issues. They know about it.

Dated Hotel - Some hotels were great back in the era but the management forgot to upgrade them. That TV looks 5 generation old. Those switches are clinky. There are not enough charging points. The carpet might smell. The toilet or shower leaks. The Internet isn’t there yet or it is there and it sucks.

Regional bias

If you travel to South America or Asia - hospitality tends to be better as there is an inbuilt classism built in the culture. The work just happens for you. As soon as you enter, someone fetches your bag. The environment is about pleasing you.

Europe and North America - They really don’t care so much as they treat everyone with or without money equal (I know it's not the whole truth but a generalization). Some hotels you won’t find anyone to help you with luggage. You are supposed to check in yourself. Take your bags to your room. No bellboy service to expect. You have to specifically ask for things that are taken for granted in Asia.

Food Choices

Some hotels have competent staff who can handle a variety of food. You can say things like celiac, keto, paleo, gluten-free, nut- free, allergen information etc and they can handle it. They can handle dietary choices well. I believe Westin hotels are best around the world in that particular category.

Last but not LEAST - SERVICE

There are countless times where a guest is uprighteous and demand for things that they feel they are entitled to. The hotel being in hospitality can choose or not choose to accommodate those requests.

On the flip side, hotel service might be terrible. They don’t know a thing about how to be hospitable. They make up their own rules. They don’t comply with the basics. There are management teams which you feel are out there to get every penny from you. You feel that they won’t do a thing for you until you pay for it through your nose. Even the staff can’t get room service or clean on time. You have to request for same thing 1000 times. They make promises that they can’t deliver upon. They mix up your orders. They do exactly what you tell them not to do.1.1K viewsView 3 upvotes3

How can I make my bed feel like a luxury hotel?

Jeff Kirk·April 10Former professional hotel critic, current Airbnb Plus hostBuy a featherbed & high-quality linens. Frette is an Italian linen maker that dates back to the 19th century and basically invented the “hotel collection” linens now widely copied: Frette formerly only sold them to hotels, but once guests started noticing how nice they were, the company began selling them at retail. Speaking of which, you can buy them at a significant discount in any of multiple places: at Frette’s own biannual sales, where some of their lines are discounted by as much as 80%, or even on eBay, where sellers buy up discounted linens and resell them at a reasonable profit (but still for far less than retail). Finally, you can occasionally find them at Tuesday Morning stores, but that’s infrequent in my experience .

What is the best luxury hotel in Hawaii?

Richard Taylor·January 4, 2019 Lives in Honolulu

There are plenty of excellent hotels in Hawaii. The better question is, what is the best one for you? What are you looking for? Any particular island? Beaches? Golf? Romance? Family stuff with kids? Volcanoes? Crowds? Seclusion? Island tourism or stay in the hotel enclave? I’m sure you know the names of the chain five stars - Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton, etc.

All of them maintain very high standards at very high prices. In a way, they are very similar and it’s hard to say one is “best”. If you are going to Honolulu, the traditional standard of excellence is the Halekulani in Waikiki. Can’t go wrong there. For something a little funkier, try the Royal Hawaiian, a real tradition, and very nice and historic. You had better like pink in your room. It’s also known as the “Pink Palace”. For the other islands, decide what things matter to you, and get a good guide book, and find the one that is “best” for you.150 viewsView 1 upvote1

What type of luxury hotels do you know of?

Hamid Rahali·June 30, 2015   I love travel !A hotel is an establishment that provides lodging paid on a short-term basis. Facilities provided may range from a basic bed and storage for clothing, to luxury features like en-suite bathrooms. Larger hotels may provide additional guest facilities such as a swimming pool, business center, childcare, conference facilities and social function services.

Hotel rooms are usually numbered (or named in some smaller hotels and B&Bs) to allow guests to identify their room. Some hotels offer meals as part of a room and board arrangement. In the United Kingdom, a hotel is required by law to serve food and drinks to all guests within certain stated hours.

What are the best ways to get a hotel upgrade in a luxury hotel?

Bruce Claver·July 25, 201620+ Yrs Luxury Hotel Management; Specialized Corp. Trainer

Do you mean a free upgrade or an upgrade at a discounted rate? There are a few ways.

1. Tell the front desk or reservations it is your anniversary or honeymoon. If there is availability, they will usually upgrade, but no guarantee.
2. Many hotels have an upsell program for the front desk agents. Everyone wins. You pay a little more for a suite that you would normally pay a lot more for, the desk agent makes commission, and the hotel makes more money and their average daily rate stays high.
3. Ask if they have an upsell program. If he/she looks at you like a deer in headlights, this will not work. Try the next option
4. If the hotel does not have an upsell program, make an offer to the desk agent. Let’s say your rate is $300 for a room. Ask the desk agent how much it is for a suite. Whatever they quote you, tell them you will agree to $50 more a night (or whatever you want to offer). They may balk.
5. Ask to speak to a manager. Tell the manager that you will agree to the extra cost which will help them with their ADR (average daily rate) for a room that they otherwise sit empty anyway or if the hotel is full, they will probably have to give someone a free upgrade to. Why give a free upgrade when you are willing to pay more right now, just not full price.
6. Immediately upon checkin, speak to the one person who has authority to make the decision without consequence, the assistant front desk manager. Go to the concierge or bell desk and ask the employee the name of the assistant manager or front office manager, then ask them to call him/her. When s/he comes out, be polite. Introduce yourself and greet them by name.
7. Nobody wants to feel uncomfortable. Take them aside, away from the ears of the other employees and simply tell them this is a special night or week and would like to see if any suites are available for as an upgrade.
8. Now this is tricky because you cannot say you will take care of them but you can hold a large bill in your hand so it is clear what will happen. Some may say this amounts to a bribe but there is a fine line, especially if there are no hotel policies being broken. I realize this is a bit unorthodox, but depending on the property, does work.
9. Meet and get to be friends with the Bell Captain. Ask him the best method or tell him it’s a special night. With the Bellman (and Captains), they work for tips so telling them you will take care of them is ok.
10. Again, he should see a bill in your hand so he know you are not bullshitting. He does not necessarily need to see the entire bill. Bell Captains are always motivated by cash. If he is a veteran, he will go to the back, speak to someone (usually the manager or vip services representative), and make it happen. Each time you visit that hotel, you will get a suite as long as you call that captain ahead of time and tell him you are coming in. The more you tip, the nicer the suite.
11. Offer the front desk agent a sandwich. This is the easiest option as long as you feel comfortable. To understand this, read my answer that has been viewed by over 200,000 Quora readers in the last 30 days to a similar question already asked.

Sprawled over 2.6 acres, this luxurious hotel features 10 restaurants and a variety of traditional Indian therapies at Jiva Spa. It is probably the most expensive and luxurious hotel of Mumbai since a very long time.

Guests are spoiled for choice in dining options – the famous Wasabi by Morimoto offers innovative Japanese cuisine, while other culinary highlights include the Golden Dragon Chinese Restaurant and the poolside Aquarius Lounge. An exclusive private dining experience can be arranged at Chef’s Studio.

Stylishly designed with Indian-inspired decor and architecture, the rooms offer amazing sea, city or pool views. Each room comes with a 32-inch flat-screen TV, a well-stocked mini-bar, free WiFi and a luxurious bathroom. Guests receive 24-hour butler service. Yacht service is available at an additional charge.

You can pamper yourself with an indulgent treatment at the Taj Salon, take a dip in the landscaped pool or treat yourself to some luxury shopping at Dior, Louis Vuitton or Stephano Ricci. Ranging from dinner reservations to personal assistance for sightseeing, The Taj Mahal Palace, Mumbai also offers a royal historical hotel tour of the Palace wing.

Why do people like luxury hotels?

Dick Karp·June 23, 2017  Frequent traveller and moderator on a popular travel site

I can’t answer why people in general like luxury hotels, but I can answer for myself, also including some information from the members who post on the luxury hotel forum on FlyerTalk - The world's most popular frequent flyer community

The biggest difference between a luxury and upscale hotel (upscale is the hotel category just below luxury) is usually not the room itself. In both of these hotel categories, a customer can expect a high quality premises.

The difference is in service. In an upscale hotel, they will likely accommodate your reasonable requests. In a luxury hotel, especially once you become a repeat guest, they will anticipate them. In a true luxury hotel, you get the feeling that anything is possible. Fresh caviar on an island in the middle of the South Pacific? A broken suitcase mysteriously repaired? Never have to call to report a burned-out light bulb? All of these and much, much more.

And the service is friendly, often invisible, and never condescending. A guest in a true luxury hotel never feels like hotel staff is acting snotty. Your wish really is their command.

Incidentally, the folks in the flyertalk forum would not accept either of the hotels mentioned by Jan Jo as a true luxury hotel. The Marina Bay Sands, in Singapore, is a large casino hotel. I doubt that there is a single casino hotel anywhere in the world that meets luxury hotel standards except possibly in a very few high roller suites.2.3K viewsView 5 upvotes · Answer requested by Tarikku Maman5

The family visited Madhurai last year as a religious trip to Madhurai Meenakshi Temple. We resided in a hotel close to the place. My cousin took charge of booking Madurai hotels on her mobile app. The hotel we stayed in was JC Residency. The hotel allowed us to choose between Heritage Executive, Executive and Royal Suite.
The hotel offers complimentary tea/coffee and mineral water. The hotel has all modern facilities like room service, laundry, housekeeping, air conditioning, dry cleaning and such other facilities. We spent some time at the yoga and meditation centre.

The trip to Madhurai Meenakshi Temple was really relaxing. We all walked the distance and the Devi worship songs added to the serene ambience and atmosphere. Kids spent much time in the swimming pool. The youngsters splurged money on spa and jacuzzi in the hotel. The holiday was enjoyable to all.

Well, it really depends on what you’re looking for and your definition of “luxury.” Either way, Hong Kong has a plethora of high-end hotels to choose from.

In Kowloon, I’d go for the Peninsula, the grand dame of Hong Kong hotels, and the Ritz Carlton. (how can you go wrong with a hotel that’s 100 floors up?). On HK Island, I like the Landmark Mandarin and Four Seasons. For a more boutique hotel feel, there’s the Upper House. Then there’s the Norman Foster-designed Murray Hotel.

You don't put more items into your bedroom to make it look like a luxury hotel room. You take items out.

Hotels, even the finest, are notable for their impersonality. If you like that look, then you need to remove clutter. Take away the excessive picture frames, tchotchkes and other clutter which indicate that a person actually lives, breathes and litters in the room. Pretty much every surface should be cleared off, just as in a hotel room. Basically, a vase of flowers and a couple of coffee table books are all that's acceptable if you really want to re-create a hotel room look.

Hotels often also have matching suites of furniture, which is not something you want to replicate in your residence. It's fine for a hotel -- after all, they can spend only so much time and money on the design of dozens or hundreds of rooms. Practicality is the real reason for matching furniture.

You're going to get a better result modeling your interior on the basis of what you like, or using very good pieces of furniture as a foundation to build upon. Nobody who appreciates interiors and design should aspire to a space designed to be an impersonal, if luxurious, backdrop to a rotating cast of travelers.2.9K viewsView 18 upvotesView shares181

I nominate the following hotels:

1. Keraton at The Plaza (very central location. Club lounge is absolutely fantastic. Linked to Plaza Indonesia, the hottest shopping mall in Jakarta)
2. The Raffles (the Saudi king and crown prince stayed here during their respective visits. Probably because Kingdom Holdings own Fairmont/Raffles/Swissôtel, but also because its suites are very beautiful)
3. Mandarin Oriental (one of the OG luxury hotels in Jakarta. Very central location)
4. The Dharmawangsa (fantastic if you'd like a quiet residential neighbourhood, and its design are a celebration of the New Indies architecure, well incorporating Indonesian elements)
5. The Westin (newest on the list. Focused on wellness, and the afternoon tea at the club lounge was lovely)

Is the Four Seasons considered a luxury hotel brand?

Olen Soifer·February 1, 201920+ years of (forensic) analytical experience regarding hospitality management.See Dick Karp’s answer, which points to the fact that…contrary to what you might think, if you’re not a seasoned traveler…it is impossible to be assured of a certain level of service or quality simply by the name or brand of hotel. That is, “generally” does not mean “always”. Regardless of the standards that the brand or “flag” sets, it cannot be continuously aware of how well each individual property adheres to those standards. Also, bear in mind that, star ratings refer to both institutional ratings and guest ratings…which may or may not be equal: Also, up to sub-4-star properties, their rating will be determined mostly by number & quality of amenities. At 4-stars & higher, the rating is mostly related to the quality of service. In that regard, I have seen as many “luxury” properties “tr(more)

What is the best luxury hotel in Perth?

Wayne Brown·May 2, 2017  Lives in Perth, Western Australia  This is a very subjective question and also depends strongly on your definition of ‘luxury’. I don’t tend to spend a lot on top-end hotels but I did treat my wife for her birthday last year at the Duxton Hotel in Perth. It was a very pleasant stay and we were treated very well by the staff and upgraded when they realised it was for her birthday. We didn’t go anywhere but enjoyed ourselves at the hotel. I’d be happy to stay there again. For yourself, define what you think ’luxury’ means and then use one of the many hotel booking websites that have filters so you can find what ‘luxury’ things you are after and also reviews for each of the hotels. Then you can make a more informed decision about which ‘luxury’ hotel to stay in and ensure you enjoy yourself, which is the most important thing. Hop(more)

Besides better marketing, what are some things that ultra luxury hotels can have that luxury hotels usually do not have?

Yan Vacher·January 19, 2017 Founder of UPGRADES - Ex GM of a 5* Hotel (2016–present)

Sorry but ‘ultra luxury hotels’ don’t have a better marketing (even if obviously, always relevant). But this very feeling you have is a reward of what they at pains at providing every day, all year long - and above all, a better service. With enough infos about you before your arrival, on your first stay, you will see many people trying to attend what you’re expecting at, and always, mentioning your name, as if you were a regular client, or some top notch Hollywood actor. That’s a real difference, and trust me, hours and hours of training, mystery guests, etc., behind. A real and consistent investment. As for knowing how they did grab infos about you, usually two ways : what’s online and/or your personal travel agent input.(more)

Same area available later in the day for refreshments and drinks.

What annoys you the most when you are staying at a luxury hotel?

It makes me feel so uncomfortable, and as though I’m a target for people to schmooze and try to squeeze money out of. I hate tipping in general. Don’t get me wrong - I’m not cheap by any stretch of the imagination. It’s not that I mind paying the money that it takes to tip people. If you’ve got to pay it, you’ve got to pay it. What I do mind is being hustled for tips at inappropriate times (do I look like I’m unable to bring my own bags to my room, Mr. Bellman?), and being shamed for tips when I was supposedly meant to tip you (I’m sorry that I missed(more)

Which are the best tools and software that could help manage a future small luxury hotel (around 40 rooms)?

Mellie Hens·September 25, 2017  Serial Entrepreneur

So, somebody is going to have a luxury hotel.

That’s great..

Well, as an ex-hotel manager I would like to suggest you to have a great booking system installed on your website first.

And to get your hotel connected to major OTAs and other hotel booking aggregators, you need to have an effective Channel Manager too.

These are tools you must need to start and gear up your hotel business.

Now, the best one, in my experience, is iRoomi.

It’s a leading Booking system that would help your guests to book with no troubles or complexity.

And the best thing is that it comes with a Channel Manager, meaning you don’t have to bother having two different tools to manage and operate your bookings.

iRoomi offers many other features, and to give you an idea here I’m going to mention a few of them…

- iRoomi provides a stunning "Book Now" button which can be easily integrated into your site

- With it, you can get more direct bookings and avoid hefty fees from , Airbnb, Expedia, TripAdvisor...

- And there’s no limit of receiving commission-free bookings

- iRoomi comes with a Free setup and integration service. So you don’t have to hire a board of experts to get thing installed.

- With it’s Channel Manager you can easily organize and sync your all bookings on a single website.

- And it’s multiple languages and currencies support will make booking easier for your international guests.

iRoomi has many other features, and to learn about them you can make a quick visit to their official website here https://www.iroomi.com/

Make holidays more memorable with the right hotel booking

Planning for a holiday can be a hard task. There are many things that should not be overlooked to have a trip that is hassle-free and enjoyable. From the start, you have to dig through hundreds of deals just to find the best airfare. Of course, you also have to carefully iron out your schedule and make sure that you can file a leave from work or have a break from managing your business or from school. More importantly, you also have to take care of hotel booking. More often than not, accommodations will make or break your holidays, which is why it is critical to choose wisely.

Find the Right Price

Among others, one of the first things that you should do is to search based on price that your wallet can realistically handle. Settle for cheap hotels if you do not have the luxury of financial resources and if you would rather splurge on food and activities than your accommodation. From our website, you can find the cheapest deals that are available. For sure, you will not have to spend too much to have a pleasurable stay in some of the best hotels in your chosen destination.

Book as Early as Possible

If you want to take advantage of the best rates, one thing that we recommend is to secure your reservations as early as possible. Whether it is Paris hotels or London hotels, among others, you can avail of cheaper prices if you book in advance. Also, find the right timing of your trip. Travelling on a lean season, without a doubt, will be easier on a pocket than a trip on a peak season. Plus, you get to enjoy the place sans the crowd.

Location

When it comes to hotel booking, another important thing to consider would be location. For instance, if you are booking Paris hotels, choose one that will give you easy access to the top attractions in the city, or perhaps one with a good view of the iconic Eiffel Tower. It should also be near public transportation terminals, restaurants, shops, and any other place that you might find interesting. Of course, safety is also an essential consideration when trying to choose the right location.

Hotel booking should never be a hard task. Rather than going through each hotel individually, we will provide you with an easy-to-use platform that will make it easy to book your choice of accommodations. Whether it is lavish London hotels, kid-friendly hotels in Vienna, or cheap hotels in Amsterdam, among others, we got you covered. For sure, with our help, planning your holidays will be much an easier task!153 views

• Rooms with every creature comfort. For example a small separate delivery closet so your morning paper or your dry cleaning can be delivered to your room without disturbing you. Another example is that the climate control shows outside temperature and wind so you know how to dress.
• Attentive but unobtrusive service.
• Great location: view of Imperial Palace, entrance directly onto subway station, very central location without feeling super loud or busy, kitty-corner from Hibya park if you want a stroll through some greenery.
• Very good bar and restaurant, with great views and fun inventive modern interior design.
• Excellent gym and pool. The pool is several floors up so while you are lounging by the pool and catching some rays you feel isolated from the street. You also get some nice views of imperial palace from the pool.702 viewsView 3 upvotes31

Venice may conjure images of romantic gondola rides down the Grand Canal, but this City of Water isn't only for swooning lovebirds. With an abundance of theaters, churches, historic sites and notable eateries, all types of travelers will enjoy Venice's charms.

2)Rome:

Just cant do a Europe tour without visiting this place.

Roma is a can't-miss spot on your European tour. The aroma of fresh Italian cooking wafts through alleys and historic sites sit at every turn. The Colosseum, St. Peter's Basilica and the awe-inspiring Trevi Fountain are essential attractions for any traveler.

3)Paris:

Paris is filled with iconic museums (like the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay), monuments (like the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe) and churches (like the Sacré-Cœur and Notre Dame). Still, save some time for drawn-out meals and relaxing at sidewalk cafes.

4)London:

Exploring the world-class British Museum, seeing a musical in the West End, touring the Tower of London and gorging on fish and chips at a local pub are all part of the London experience. However, London's high hotel prices can make budget travelers cringe.

Marketing AnalystHotel booking sites such as Kayak, Expedia, Wotif, Agoda and Priceline can help you find accommodation around the world, and they can save you the hassle of trawling through hundreds of websites to find the right room. All claim to offer the best deals, the largest range of rooms, and easy-to-use tools that can help you narrow down options to find accommodation that suits your travel needs. But despite their claims, most aren't as far reaching as their ads would have you believe. Hotel booking sites may promote themselves as having the best deals or the widest range of hotels, but recent investigations should have you questioning such assertions. Agoda Agoda consistently ranks amongst the best in price across a variety of searches. The company was bought by Priceline and has since become even(more)

Do hotel guests at a luxury hotel ask hotel concierge to find them an escort?

Martynas Jonaitis·Updated June 27, 2019 Founder @ Suzie.app

I have worked in the hotel (luxury hotel group). Although I was not in the concierge shoes, I have received such a question couple of times.

Not sure if every hotel employee would react the same as I did, but I was quite open and had a great laugh with the guest.

The truth is that first of all, it’s illegal to do so (in the jurisdiction I was based) so therefore I wouldn’t risk my reputation. Furthermore, I believe most hotel employees can’t really afford such services, so it's unlikely that someone could genuinely help you in such situation.

Moreover, in most hotels, you are dealing with foreigners (let's be frank) so this, even more, decreases the chances of them knowing escort services in the area.

My recommendation would be plan ahead and use existing online services, take the local girl out, and hope for the best. Who knows maybe you will manage to make a lifetime relationship.

Hope this helps!11.8K viewsView 2 upvotes2

Pls. recommend best luxury hotel in Matheran - 4 or 5 star?

Shohini Sen

December 1, 2015I would vote for the Verandah in the forest, which is by the Neemrana group. "Nestled deep in the jungles of Matheran, wrapped with ferns and nostalgia, the Verandah was an old colonial bungalow. Built by Capt Barr in the 19th century, it was only the second house to be built on the Western Ghats. Now owned by the Neemrana Group, the bungalow has been restored to house various rooms. But the gem of the eye remains the long extending verandah – calling it a balcony can never do it justice. This is where we ended up spending most of our time, ignoring the monkeys, having our meals in the afternoon, sipping chai while playing a terrible game of scrabbles. The verandah overlooked the valley, which explained why the guests all came out to watch the sunset from the comfort of the vintage loung(more)

Michael Forrest Jones·May 17, 2017Beechmont Hotels Corporation

A guest profile on a good property management system will come with everything you see here. Make a reservation, or check into the hotel, one time, and that ‘file’ will exist for years — or until they change the system.

And that’s their ‘floor sample’, the screenshot provided to their prospective hotel company buyers. The ones I’ve used have an added button on the above screen where, with one click, we can bring up your photo and a sample of your signature (both of these come off your drivers’ license when we scan it the first time we check you in).

Assuming your reservations agent was using this one made by Visual Matrix Property Management Systems (there are more of these systems out there than there are hotels to run them in, it seems), if she knew which suite you stayed in last time, a click on that tab up and near the right marked ‘History’ is what told her.

And we want more. CendynONE, the makers of the must successful customer relationship management system for hotels, gives you this in addition.

Don’t get creeped out. It’s all good.

First, not every hotel has it: smaller, cheaper ones won’t make quite that investment. (There’s a desktop system you can buy for a thousand give or take, that contents itself with more basic information, here. And most franchised hotels just take whatever Choice Hotels or Wyndham Worldwide requires them to have, and don’t invest any more. At least Best Western — which got me acquainted with Visual Matrix — and Red Lion, went to the bother of putting together decent systems.)

Secondly, while opportunities for misuse occur, most of the people I’ve known over my years in this business who are bent that way tend to own, or be employed in, a hotel that doesn’t make quite that investment. (Hotels that do invest in a good CRM system have an even larger investment in not allowing it to be misused and incurring the business costs that would come with a public backlash from that. Most franchised hotels use whatever overpriced piece of crap property management system the franchise organization tells them to, not that many of those are this capable; and even when they are, not too many people in the hotel have access to, or know how to use, most of the features.) We have had the occasional perv get the phone number for an attractive woman guest (mea culpa, but it all worked out, and we even stayed married for ten years…) or someone with dishonest intent and an online gambling problem help himself to the credit card information of one or more guests (which I actually busted a guy for doing some ten years ago); but in both cases, it took a system no more sophisticated than a years-old version of that cheap desktop system that I linked you to, if even that.) If you come to work for me as a clerk, there’s no foolproof way to stop you from trying it if you’re bent that way, but a good system will record every file that you opened during your shift, every day; so if you’re opening files that your job duties don’t require that you get into and nosing into things you shouldn’t, or misusing our guests’ information in some way, we can find you.

Third, if nothing about you sticks out that would provoke someone on the hotel staff to take an interest in you, chances are your profile will never even be looked at.

Why I would want something like this system:

• Among the info that it picks up about you is where you work. (We do that ourselves: we stick with the old-fashioned registration card, and it’s one of the blanks you fill out.) If you and several other people from your workplace stay with us frequently, our salespeople will be paying it a visit. You could end up with a better rate.
• Not to let daylight in upon magic, but if we sent you a birthday card, it’s not nearly as likely that we remembered you as it is because the system prompted us. (A lot of the stuff we get comes off your publicly-viewable social media pages.) And we compensate a little, and let you know it’s really from the heart and not just a PR gimmick, the next time you come around and we’ve got you down for a free upgrade.
• If Lady Gaga is in town and demand is so high in the area that hotels are full and walk-ins are being charged a couple hundred dollars or more, but this is the night for better or worse that you show up, well, we know you’re a regular and we go easy on you. We’ll take your reservation even if we’re running close to full and we could get $250–300 from someone else, and we’ll charge you a little closer to what you’re used to seeing, if not the same rate.
• If you usually get a 5:30am wake-up call, but on this stay, you didn’t ask for one . . . well, our people know to ask, if you forgot. Or to ask before they assume you forgot if, on this stay, you didn’t need or want one, before they go putting one in for you. Or to not ask if, previously, you’ve told one of our staff don’t worry about it.
• We make a policy of looking out for people who look out for us. (That’s why the complimentary bottles of Le Bleu, Ultra Pure Bottled Water in your fridge: we have to provide complimentary bottled water anyway, and Le Bleu is bottled right up the road from where we live. Kaba-Ilco was our preferred vendor of guestroom locking systems and much of the reason why is because they have a plant in our Winston-Salem, N. C. hometown. Then they crapped on our home city: they announced that they’re planning to close the plant, putting 123 people out of work and moving all the jobs to Mexico, so now they’re in our bad books and we’re looking at Assa Abloy, Samsung, and other systems for electronic locks for our rooms in the future, and our next hotels will not have Ilco locks.) If we’re looking to build a new hotel in Savannah and, what do you know, you’re a real estate broker living in Savannah and you always stay with us when you’re in town, you might be getting a call that’s worth a lot more than your loyalty card points.
• If you encountered a problem on your last stay that can be fixed, we want to do just that — and to assure you that in the future, you can come to us with it and you know exactly who to call. So, we get an immediate alert if you post something to TripAdvisor. Or we make a note of it if we picked up on it that you were unhappy about something. And we want to alert the staff to be extra careful so that it doesn’t happen again.
• If you like baseball, you may be staying with us on a night when we’ve got extra tickets to a Winston-Salem Dash game. We may only have six or so and won’t be able to offer them to every guest, but if we know you like baseball, you’d be one of the six.
• If you frequently travel with a pet, we try to put you on a low floor near a rear exit, so you can walk Spot, or change Patches’ litterbox, as needed.
• And if we know that the noise from our vending area drives you nuts, and we found nothing wrong with our vending machines when we checked them, we know to put you in a room away from them that time.

It’s a marketing tool — but a large part of that is that it helps our hotel work for you, specifically, and appreciate you as an individual.8K viewsView 48 upvotesView shares · Answer requested by Philip McKillen 48101

Which is the best luxury hotel in Spain?

I would say that one of the places I dream about staying someday is the Hotel Alfonso XII in Seville Hotel Alfonso XIII. This is an historic place, gorgeous and luxurious, with a ton of history.

This building was constructed as one of the finest hotel in Europe. The occasion was the Ibero-Americano Expo of 1929, a showcase for the world displaying the best of Spain, Portugal and the Latin-American countries. More here: Andalucia.com.

Hotel Alfonso XII - Sevilla

Paradores

The other option in Spain is to stay in government owned chain called Paradores. They are public places all over the country, most of them they are old castles, churches, and convents over centuries old. These hotels will guarantee you not the most luxurious stays but a pretty high standard, 4 start at least, and amazing regional gastronomy. As they are public places, if you cannot afford to stay or eat there you can just go and walk around and also have a coffee. I have to say that any city I go in Spain that has a Parador I will get in, as they are normally very well restored with authentic furniture or reproductions that made one more attraction not to miss.

Some examples:

Plasencia, Extremadura

Cáceres, Extremadura

Alarcón, Castilla La Mancha

If you are going to a honeymoon or to a vacation, selecting a good hotel is really important for you. We all have to plan a limited budget to work with, we find it really hard to choose a good hotel and stay within your budget at the same time.

Before choosing hotel you must consider following

Consider your Needs

The first thing that you need to consider is your needs. What you need to do is match your needs against what the hotel offers. Typically, the hotel has a rank that falls between 0 and 5.

Use the Internet

You may want to search for a hotel on the Internet as well. You may want to go to hotel review websites where you can read a lot of reviews left by other people who stayed at different hotels. These reviews will tell you if they had a good or bad experience.

Follow the Traditional Route

How can I use a relationship with a luxury hotel manager?

Bruce Claver·May 20, 201720+ Yrs Luxury Hotel Management; Specialized Corp. Trainer

One thing I used to tell myself over and over again while I worked at the Four Seasons is that although I worked in a fabulous and beautiful five star hotel, I’d rather stay in one than work in one. The sad truth however, is that I could not afford to stay in one, especially for $430 a night. The good people who work at the luxury hotels generally cannot afford to stay there since the general demographic for such hotels is the 1–2% wealthiest people. Hotel managers and General Managers earn the most of course, but most likely, depending on where they are in the hierarchy, they are not driving luxury cars and living the high life however, I’ve know plenty of employees and managers who would not mind getting into a relationship with such a person which would be their ticket out of there.

What is really happening here is that she may have an interest in you on a personal level and that can be for any number of reasons one being she thinks you have no problem spending money on a suite. But do you want to be with someone because she wants you for your money? She will help you burn through your savings quickly, believe me. But if she has an interest in you because of who you are, she will understand that you can be smart financially and not have to always stay in a suite. In fact, I’ve always wondered why people book suites in the first place unless they need the space for specific reasons. Always seemed like a waste of money. Peter Coors, the former Chairman of the Molson Coors Brewing Company and Chairman of MillerCoors used to take public transportation from O’Hare airport in Chicago to the downtown hotel I was at, rather than hiring a driver or even renting a car. That was a minimum 50 minute commute on a train with homeless people and all walks of life from the economic scale. Ego played no part in his transportation decision. Jay Leno, one of the U.S. most famous and successful comedians, used to stay in one of the largest suites at Caesars Palace when he performed there yet he would always walk down to the front desk on his own and ask for his mail rather than send an assistant or ask for it to be sent up. No ego there either. Don’t worry about what others may think of you.

If this hotel manager is comping your charges and you believe she has more than a professional interest in you and, you have more than a professional interest in her, then stop thinking that your money or lack of it defines your character. Ask her to join you for a drink or coffee after her shift and if she accepts, she is interested. That is because staff are generally forbidden from fraternizing with guests and risk termination if caught. If she takes the risk, she has an interest. But believe me, the fact that you are staying in a luxury hotel already disqualifies you of being considered cheap.10.8K viewsView 16 upvotesView shares · Answer requested by Philip McKillen1612

The Legian Bali Lodging – Seminyak

Delightful area right on the shoreline (and the inn offers free surf lessons). Brilliant pool, tremendous suites, awesome nourishment. The one room manor with private pool is shocking. Inn

The Oberoi Bali – Seminyak

This is a dazzling inn and an incredible area for eateries, shopping, and nightlife. Everything about simply right and the staff are the best on the island. Extravagance Manors are justified regardless of the redesign

Padma Resort Bali – Kuta/Legian

A 5-star lodging however somewhat less costly than the others I’ve picked. Superb swimming pools that are very much tended to and heaps of fun. The lodging is extremely kid-accommodating (there’s a decent children club) yet extravagant and classy. Lodging

Emissary Bali – Ubud

Stunning setting and unfathomable perspectives. Each manor is staggering. The vastness pool disregards a lavish wilderness scene.

The Chedi Club at Tanah Gajah – Ubud

Peace, calm, and magnificence. Incredible area (the inn is encompassed by rice paddies), remarkable administration (each suite gets an individual head servant), and great perspectives.

Four Seasons Resort – Jimbaran

Lovely area on Jimbaran Cove with its own particular private shoreline. Magnificent nourishment and sublime administration. Each estate has a private dive pool. Most are one-room but on the other hand there’s a 3-room estate that dozes 6.

How many rooms are there in the average luxury hotel (e.g. W Hotel)?

Dick Karp·June 24, 2018 Frequent traveller and moderator on a popular travel site

First of all, the W hotel chain is not a luxury hotel chain (although there are two W hotels — Barcelona and Tokyo — that are particularly well regarded). Second, there are no luxury hotels in Las Vegas — even the Mandarin Oriental and Four Seasons, the closest contenders, don’t generally meet luxury hotel service standards.

These conclusions are based on the opinions of some of the most knowledgable luxury hotel customers in the world — the folks who post on the luxury hotel forum of flyertalk.

It is hard to imagine that the service standards required to make a hotel operate at the luxury level could be maintained in any hotel with more than about 175 rooms.3.3K viewsView 2 upvotes2

What is an average cost of a custom website for a 5* luxury hotel?

Hil MacLaine·April 23, 2018Hotel Manager

Well, it won’t cost you a fortune to create a custom website for your 5-star hotel.

In fact, you can get your website ready and online only for a few hundred bucks.

But the thing is, a website alone can’t help you meet your hotel needs.

For instance, to sell inventories you must be using one or two OTA sites, right?

But guess what??

When you would have your own website and sell inventories through that site, it will be a lill difficult for you to manage your availability calendars.

Because you would constantly be receiving bookings from your OTAs listings, so if you don’t have a Channel Manager integrated to your hotel website, then chances are you end up with over bookings.

Similarly, if your website doesn’t have an integrated PMS system, then you will have troubles with managing your reservations. Which will cause many sever issues and jeopardize your hotel’ reputation.

So to deal with such unexpected issues, your hotel website will have to have some needed-tools integrated to it.

And that’s where your cost will start going up.

So if you’re on budget and still want to have a premium website for your hotel, then I’d recommend you to use tools like Website Builder.

They will help you get a fully functional hotel website at a reasonable cost. And they also have customizable features, so you can easily change the layout or background to match it with your hotel’s look and feel.

So to get a professional website with needed tools installed on it, you should make use of a handy Website Builder.

See here to learn more about this tool and how it can help you create a premium website for your hotel Website Builder - An Affordable Way To Build Your Own Hotel Booking Website

Why is North Korea full of luxury hotels if it has so few tourists?

Raymond K. Cunningham·March 27, 2020 I have traveled to the DPRK six times and most regions of the country.Luxury hotels? Feast your eyes on luxury!

I describe them as “Cuban Chic” for if you have been to Cuba and the USSR you get the vibe. It is adequate. Perhaps it is socialist luxury but there are no luxury hotels in the DPRK. I did once sneak up to the VIP suits at the Koryo and it was more like three star. Here is the hotel brochure showing the rooms at the Koryo.

Does the UK really put asylum seekers in luxury hotels for free?

Nicholas Stone·February 24 Studied UK government and politics.People arriving in the UK can apply to stay in the UK as a refugee. This is the process of seeking asylum. The application is made to the Home Office. When applying, there is a meeting with an immigration officer called screening. After screening, the Home Office decides if the asylum seeking application can be decided in the UK. If it can, there’s an asylum seeking interview and a caseworker. Legislation allows the UK government the powers to detain asylum seekers at any stage of the asylum process. Detention is the practice of holding people who are subject to immigration control in custody, while awaiting for permission to enter the UK or before they are deported or removed from the UK. It is an administrative process, not a criminal procedure. Harmondsworth detention centre. The biggest(more)

Why do people book an Airbnb over a luxury hotel?

Jordan Zweigoron·December 15, 2018 Sr. M&A Advisor

We have a highly rated Airbnb in Silicon Valley. For $165 per night, our guests have not just a room, but a one bedroom apartment. While that may sound expensive, it’s a pricey area.

Our guests never have to check in or out. They park in the driveway rather than a parking garage. They have immediate access via keyless entry. They have a whole courtyard and patio table outside where they can relax.

The have a full kitchen at their disposal with everything from plates to measuring cups. They are provided with coffee and fresh cream. Bottles of water, beer, snacks, breakfast foods, and fine chocolates. They don’t pay extra for any of these things.

At a hotel, especially the luxury ones, you may pay $280 per night, for a place comparable in size to ours. Then you’ll pay $40/night for parking. But wait, there is probably a valet; so it takes time and a tip to retrieve your car. Then you may pay for wi-fi. Each small bottle of water will be exorbitantly priced with taxes on top.

Our guests love all the amenities that come included in our space. And oh yeah, we often invite our guests for dinner and drinks. Take that, Hyatt.806 viewsView 5 upvotes5

Why are many luxury hotels in mainland China decorated using really cheap-looking ugly porcelain?

Aesop from Capella were very nice as well. I especially loved the minimalist packaging. I went on to purchase their body wash!

Como hotels offers their own range of soap, Como Shambhala in their hotels and smells like heaven. I always take an extra set (or two) whenever I stay in their properties heehee.

What is the nicest (luxurious) hotel in San Francisco?

Gordon Crespo·July 19, 2016 Lives in San Francisco

By far the most chic, cool and luxurious is The Battery.

It's actually a private club but has 14 hotel rooms/suites/and a super lux penthouse

Hotel guests are considered ‘resident members’ and can enjoy not only the superlative sleeping accommodations but also 4 bars, fabulous restaurant and room service, beautiful outdoor terrace/ garden, gym, huge whirlpool spa, library, terrific lounge and mingle with the members most of whom are residents of SF or nearby.

Terrific rotating art by local artists also is displayed throughout the property.

Oh, no cell phone conversations allowed except in your room or designated areas! The idea is to encourage actual interactions with folks. That said its not forced and if you want to curl up by yourself on a coach and read no one will bother you.

When you're in the all glass elevator going up to your room and taking in the view of the garden below and the Transamerica pyramid within spitting distance you know your definitely “not in Kansas anymore”

Oops, just noticed you mentioned you have to accomodate 70 people.

I'd go with Hotel Vitale on the Embarcadero. The St Regis is also a possibility but much more expensive.

The Ritz, St Francis and Fairmont are nice classic venues but arguably not as ‘cool’. (A bit more touristy)255 views

What are luxurious hotels?

Craig Allen Swagerty·January 1

Self Employed

Here’s a few links on some of the top hotel brands. Basically they’re very cool hotels with amazing locations in the best places, with the best restaurants, spas, possibly golf courses, amazing services like housekeeping concierge valet and stuff like that. My person example would be the Fairmont Princess in Scottsdale since I live in Phoenix. You pull into that hotel and there’s a valet and bellman for you that knows everything about parking your car even if it’s a Ferrari. They get your bags out and probably have them up in your rooms once you’ve checked in. They have an awesome spa at the hotel, they’re on the TPC Scottsdale where the PGA plays. They could probably get you tickets to any ticket in town at the concierge. All the restaurants and bars there are over the top. Pools and decorations and things are just awesome. It’s a hotel where Presidents and celebrities stay when in Phoenix. Just a hotel that over does it. With some of the hotels you get what you pay for, a luxury hotel can be one of those.

Where is a good luxury hotel in Japan?

Dick Karp·June 7, 2018 Frequent traveller and moderator on a popular travel site

Tokyo now has a number of luxury hotels. The Grand Hyatt is not one of them. Some of the luxury hotels include the Aman, Peninsula, Four Seasons, Mandarin Oriental, Park Hyatt, and the Prince Gallery.

There is now also a good selection of luxury hotels in Kyoto (including some luxury ryokan. There is a scattering of luxury hotels elsewhere in Japan.

For more detailed information, take a look at these two flyertalk threads:

Tokyo luxury hotels (newer consolidated thread)

Luxury Hotels of Japan (mainly outside of Tokyo)

Bear in mind that in Tokyo, like some other east Asian cities (Hong Kong, Bangkok), hotel service standards are higher than in most of the rest of the world. So a hotel one step below luxury in Tokyo may still be as good as a luxury hotel in many other places.

What are the best luxury hotels in Manila?

Kareeza Cristobal·June 30, 2019 Lives in Manila

I'm a fan of the classic hotels in Manila. My favorite is the Manila Peninsula with its old world charm, great location in Makati CBD but still feels like it's private enough that random people don't see your comings and goings.

The Shangri-la hotels are always good, with the newest BGC location being the best. A good second option is the Makati location, and I'll probably skip the EDSA one.

Sofitel is a good option for the Roxas Blvd/Pasay location, with the bonus that it houses Spiral restaurant, my opinion the best hotel buffet in the city.

Among the new ones, Raffles hotel in Makati is pretty good. I'd stay away from the casino hotels as they are out of the way and a bit hectic (unless you want to hit the casinos). If you really want to stay in that area/near the airport, City of Dreams is my favorite among those.58 views

Most often, I do so when returning the car at the end of the day. If you take your car out several times over the course of the day, it would be completely fine to split up the amount and tip them twice ($2 one time, $3 another). Since there are usually several valet attendants, I try to tip them all at least once. Housekeeping: Again, I tend to tip $2/$3 a day. I read that you should leave th(more)
