[These were all points redemption]

Holiday Inn Munich Westpark - We took a train from here to Octoberfest

Crown Plaza Queenstown - Our room had a perfect lake view from the balcony. One of the most scenic places I'd ever been.

Holiday Inn Express Kanab - We used this as a base to explore Zion and Bryce Canyon National Parks. There are hotels closer to both parks, but we enjoyed not having to pack and unpack every couple of days and instead enjoyed a longer stay here. Plus the town of Springdale IMO is way too crowded. I was glad to leave the vicinity after my park visit.

Kimpton Bangkok - There are many nice properties in Bangkok. This is a newer hotel in a nice neighborhood. The staff is young and they are eager to impress the guests. I enjoyed everything here and frankly, would have a wonderful vacation even if I did not leave the hotel. (I did leave the hotel several times in search of local street food and fancy cocktail bars.)

Hotel Indigo Lower East Side NY - LES has its own vibe and feel. This isn't the nicest hotel nor is it known for their elite treatment. Nonetheless, I enjoyed my weeklong stay at this location very much.
