I have always been intrigued by Hertz President’s Circle status. However, I think my days holding this elite level with Hertz are numbered. With many of my rentals failing to actually credit for elite status, I have recently been spending a lot of time chasing them in order to get credit applied. This week’s travels would have me passing through Montreal Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport. While I usually get better experience… Read More
With a recent business trip to the western part of Calgary, I ended up staying at the Four Points by Sheraton Hotel and Suites Calgary West for a five day stay in the region. The Four Points by Sheraton Calgary West represented some straight forward “no nonsense” accommodation that happened to be well located for meetings in the Western Calgary area and its proximity to Canada Olympic Park. How would a week… Read More

The Westin Whistler Resort and Spa remains one of the most popular options for a Marriott Bonvoy points hotel located in Whistler, Canada. Situated right next to the Whistler Village, the Westin Whistler Resort and Spa offers almost every feature imaginable for a full service hotel at a ski resort. I would get the opportunity to visit the property for a three day stay during off season, being able to test out… Read More
This week’s travel had me travelling to the northern part of Vancouver Island in South West British Columbia. Departing from Vancouver, with limited flight availability, and some labour issues impacting the BC Ferries service resulting in many cancellations, I ended up deciding to fly over through Nanaimo, making the Courtyard by Marriott Nanaimo the logical choice for a hotel stay in this particular region. The Courtyard by Marriott Nanaimo is the only… Read More

The Westin Hapuna Beach Resort represented the best value that we’ve experienced from a Marriott Bonvoy redemption in Hawaii to date. With a large resort like feel to the property, a world class beach at your footsteps, and a reasonably solid Elite upgrade to an ocean view, there was a lot to like when spending a week at this resort. Our in depth review tackles all areas and experiences at the resort… Read More
For that special birthday that comes at fifty, I ended up deciding that I’d need to see the sun rise on the morning of my fiftieth birthday in the Hawaiian Islands. This was a pretty easy task, given the amount of airlines that fly to Hawaii and the amount of hotels that are available in the Hawiian Islands. We ended up settling on visiting the Big Island, the last Hawiian Island that… Read More
Marriott typically offers a spring and fall promotion that aligns with the business travel season. While we saw a spring promotion earlier this year that was pretty reasonable with a double elite qualifying night credit, this one is pretty lack luster. It only takes a moment to register for a Marriott promotion, so read on to see what Marriott is offering it’s fall travellers when staying at Marriott Bonvoy hotels. Marriott Bonvoy… Read More

We have seen the development of casino and hotel loyalty program partnerships over the years. We’ve just received news of possibly the largest hotel / casino partnership announcement that has the potential to benefit both sides quite substantially. If you are a Marriott Bonvoy member, you’re likely to be most excited by this news and partnership, which will fully finalize this fall. Marriott Bonvoy Announces new Casino Partnership with MGM Rewards Marriott… Read More

Our travels took is back to the middle of the Ontario pan handle between Toronto and Windsor to visit my wife’s brother. As a returning visitor to this region, we decided to branch out and try a different hotel than our last stay. As I’ve been spending a lot of time in hotels lately, I opted for the extended stay option in London, Ontario in order to stretch out and get a… Read More

Our recent return to the Toronto Airport area had us testing out another full service hotel. While most hotels within the Toronto Airport area are on the functional side, this hotel would be no different. We would end up arriving to this property prior to travelling onwards towards southern Ontario the very next morning. Our stay at the Sheraton Toronto Airport hotel and Conference Centre met the mark in terms of a… Read More

I have usually been intrigued by Hertz President’s Circle status. There is something overtly visual about elite rental car status, as compared to airline elite status. With elite rental car status, you actually get the opportunity to see nicer cars in certain corners of the lot, whereas airline status is limited to those elitist airline luggage tags and free upgrades that aren’t always apparent. Unfortunately, my Hertz President’s Circle days have been… Read More

Our short stay in Doha had us returning to the familiar Westin Doha Hotel and Spa. The Westin was a brand new property a few years back, and we didn’t see a need to change properties to try somewhere new during our short stay in Doha. Our stay at the Westin Doha Hotel and Spa would be marked by a fabulous suite upgrade amid comfortable surroundings in this inner city resort like… Read More
