My personal list of nicest hotels I’ve stayed in is probably Residence Inn & Suites, Hyatt Place, Holiday Inn Express, Drury Inn

likefunny

St Regis >>> JW Marriott

like

100%. Honestly think St Regis is better than the Ritz too. W is nice but not everyone’s cup of tea

Aman Resorts and Peninsula.

like

Jumeirah - mostly in Middle East, but they have raised the benchmark insanely high

These are “middle class fancy” chains. Real luxury properties include Aman, Lanhgams and the like

I find that — despite brand standards — this varies location to location. For example, at many domestic locations I’ve been to, St Regis > Ritz.

Yes I know. OP didn’t mention SR, and it’s a good example where sometimes a Ritz is nicer or sometimes a SR is better depending on location.

Mandarin, Shangri-La, Peninsula

Jw Marriott is the worst. I avoid all of them now.

The edition is fun!

I used Chase explorer to buy tickets for my vacation and luggages were delayed for a month. Per chase term I am entitled $100 a day for 3 days.
