Haven’t stayed at an Alila hotel before… how does the service / quality compare to Ritz / Edition hotels?

Depends on the hotel - the Alilas in the US (Ventana Big Sur, Napa Valley (this was the former Las Alcobas Luxury Collection hotel in Bonvoy btw), and Encinitas - I’d rank them in that order), Oman (Hinu Bay and Jabal Al Akhdar), India (Bishangarh and Goa), and Vilas Uluwatu are as good as most Ritzs (honestly many of which in the US are honestly debatable if they are really 5* luxury hotels but they’re far better internationally).

EDITIONs are all city hotels designed in a modern edge style while Alilas are more about relaxation and in natural areas so they’re very different - I’d compare it more to St Regis or Luxury Collection resorts. Outside of Vilas Uluwatu though, there are a bunch of Alilas in Bali (which are half of their hotels) that aren’t really luxury hotels so stay away from those - idk how / why they’re still part of the brand.

Thanks for the link. Yeah, I’m planning on going early next year so they’d probably be able to iron out the kinks by then

I had two recruiters today reschedule a meeting. And this is the second time rescheduling. Honesty, not sure what value recruiters bring. Is this common now? Is it hard to have respect for people’s time and their schedule? Reschedule once I can understand. But twice is just stupidity. I hope AI wipes out all bad recruiters who don’t give af. Sorry for the vent. Maybe it’s just my bad luck then.

Planning a trip to Rome and Naples with day trips to Tivoli and Pompeii. Is 1 week enough? I feel like reading through 3/4 day Rome and 2 day Naples itineraries, the trip seems rushed. I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out
