Going to be in Riga in a week and there's an SLH hotel there (and a HGI). I'm considering spending 160k for 5 nights at the SLH Grand Palace.

I think SLH partnership is too new to know if they do Gold breakfast. And reviews are a bit mixed with a lot of rave reviews but a significant number saying it's a tired property.

My big concern is that Riga is a pretty cheap destination in general. There are plenty of pretty good looking hotels for 80-100Euros/night. I feel like rationally I should save these points for the next time I'm in an expensive destination like London or YVR (or one day NYC or SFO). I don't have many more points than this and don't earn a lot (these are from a SUB)

I just don't know if I can get the higher valuations anywhere I'm likely to go with the points I have. Even if I save them for a trip to YVR next year they probbaly aren't enough for 5 nights. They seem like they would just be enough for 3 nights which at current rates is about 600 euros at a regular Hilton (YVR is stupid expensive).

So all in all I'm tempted to throw these points at an overpriced luxury hotel in a cheap city even though I feel like this is something I'm going to regret later. Am I crazy?
