A stay at the Paradox Hotel Vancouver with the best unexpected breakfast at Urban Fare

April 18, 2024

I booked the Paradox Hotel for our family during the holidays. I used Expedia ( a site I often use because of its easy cancellations and good hotel deals) but saw recently on the actual Paradox Hotel website they have a Washington Residents’ rate. (I often google “Washington residents rate” for Vancouver hotels and they […]

hotel room at the Conrad NYC downtown overlooking the Irish Hunger Memorial

A Conrad New York downtown Review from a Seattle family who has also stayed at the Midtown location

June 28, 2023

Last year, our then twin-thirteen-year-olds went on their first ever away trip with school to Washington DC and New York and being a little bit overprotective and because it was still kind of during the new covid times my husband and I flew out to meet them. We booked the Conrad Midtown Manhattan with our […]

Book an Atrium room at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville and you might just feel like you’re in Jurassic Park

April 5, 2023

I’m not always a fan of conference hotels. They tend to feel dormish or sterile. And because we travel a lot, I’ve found that my family now spends more time in our hotel rooms than we used to so where we stay has become a lot more important. When I found out we would be […]

Dungeness Bay Cottages in Sequim, a dog-friendly place to stay on the Olympic Peninsula that is great for families too

July 17, 2020

If you aren’t camping it can be tough to find dog-friendly places to stay on the Olympic Peninsula that are good for families with kids too. There are an abundance of traditional motel-style rooms but it is harder to find a place that allows for a little more spread. We had a few days to […]

Seattle Southside revisited at the Hotel Interurban in Tukwila with the Do More Save More Passport

October 4, 2019

A few years ago my family was invited to stay at the Embassy Suites in Tukwila. We had a crazy soccer weekend with back to back games in a tournament. We live in Seattle but it’s still a drive to the Southside and I wouldn’t have thought to stay in a hotel but it ended […]

April 29, 2019

Last month I was in Palm Springs for Alt Summit-a conference for creatives-and this year it was spread out between four famous Palm Springs hotels: the Saguaro Palm Springs, the Ace Hotel, The Riviera and the Parker Hotel.
