I'd leave luggage (with only clothes and locked), but not the work laptop. I, also, took my work laptop on my honeymoon.

Yeah, when I was traveling around Asia this summer, I took it and only opened when necessary while on PTO.

Ask them if they have a safe at the Weston you can leave it or buy a laptop box and send it home insured.

I wouldn't let the laptop out of my sight, but that's just me. Carrying it around, esp in Paris and other places, won't be that hard. I took mine on a 2 hour speedboat ride through the Indian Ocean

Yeah, exactly. I'd put it in a safe in each hotel room. I'm just explaining how I've handled it on my multiple trips and what felt right to me.

Italy and France are known for their pickpockets - keep your laptop locked or within sight all the time

Lock it in safe. If you only have a week, limit cities and see as many sites as possible.

Yeah, def some stuff around that...there are some exceptions, like if you are actually doing work in that country
