But there must be occasional exceptions.
I was recently among the first month's group of guests at a new hotel in Morocco - extreme nerves going into a 20th wedding anniversary trip - and it turned out to be pretty much our favorite hotel experience yet!
Leaps of faith can be excruciating though.
Has Orange County been absorbed into Italy? A recent look at rates there haad me triple checking to ensure i hadnt mindlessly typed in Como.
I also had bad stays in new hotels. That's why I said I see the problem.
Orange county is also some hotspot of special value. When it comes to Como I paid 2000 € + 10% service fee last October for a Junior Suite at Passalaqua. More than enough. Upcoming October (same time and room) it's 3000 € +. I think they need to make up for all the freebies they've given influencers. Or it's just the usual price raise. At least it is the best hotel in the world
P.S. We're misappropriating Kat's thread here. That wasn't really her point.
