Two nights in Singapore- Where to stay using hotel points?
My husband and I will be staying in Singapore for two nights on our way to Paris (in Singapore Airlines suites class on mileage!). We arrive 5/26/16 at 12 AM from Kona, Hawaii. We have Hyatt, Hilton, IHG, Ritz Carlton & SPG points. We also have two free night certificates with Fairmont. We currently are Hyatt & IHG platinum, Hilton Diamond, Ritz Carlton Platinum & SPG Silver. I am thinking of getting the Amex Platinum card to get upgraded to SPG Gold among other perks. I do have an SPG business Amex so I would get club floor access.
I am trying to decide which hotel to use points at or to splurge and stay at Raffles. We stayed at Raffles about 15 years ago and loved the hotel so much that we barely left. This time I really want to see Singapore.
We are going to spend 5 weeks in Europe after Singapore so will need to choose hotels there too. We already have 5 free nights at the Park Hyatt Vendome in Paris. We will be going to Prague, Vienna, Budapest, Dubrovnik, & Montenegro, and possibly Montreux and Monte Carlo. I'm just not sure how to spend our various hotel points across this whole vacation. I love historic hotels in particular, but I also don't know which sections of the city are best to stay at.I would appreciate any feedback you can give me on Singapore or any of the European cities we are going to.
