On our most recent visit, we tried out the Almanac Barcelona for a quick, one-night stay. This property promised a stylish boutique experience, steps away from the city’s main attractions. But how did it stack up in practice? Below is our detailed review—covering the booking process, our impressions of the lobby and check-in, what we thought of our room, the amenities, and more.

During our latest visit, we had the chance to spend one night at the ME Barcelona by Meliá, a modern hotel promising avant-garde design and upscale service right in the heart of the city. We booked this stay through American Express Fine Hotels & Resorts and were eager to see how the property lived up to its hype.

We had an amazing time at the TWA Hotel and look forward to our next visit! If you're ever looking for a place to stay near JFK Airport, don't forget about this hidden gem! We definitely recommend it for its vintage style, friendly staff, delicious food options, and rooftop pool with picturesque views of the airport. From the moment you arrive to the time you leave, your stay at the TWA Hotel will be an unforgettable experience that we highly recommend!

Visiting the Andaz West Hollywood was an incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by their exceptional hotel staff. Every single person we encountered from the valet, to the desk clerks, to the restaurant servers and housekeeping staff demonstrated a dedication to providing excellent service. The interior of the hotel is absolutely stunning; it feels modern and luxurious without any stuffiness or pretension.

All in all, there is no doubt that the Conrad St James was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. From its beautiful decor to its attentive staff, it truly exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to come back and experience the luxury of the Conrad St James once more.
