I am back, while Jeff is busy teaching he has left me responsible for the blog. Naturally, I have not posted anything until recently asked by someone (begins with a J and ends with an eff), if I was ever going to write a post. … [Read more...] about Heritage House – A Picturesque Resort Not a Retirement Community

A Tremendous Hotel in Austria – Hotel Schloss Fuschl Review
This is a delightful property. Not that I had reason to believe otherwise, of course. But with two nights at the Hotel Schloss Fuschl sandwiched in between stays at "sure thing" hotels - the Intercontinental Davos and the Intercontinental Berchtesgaden - I wasn't sure what to expect. … [Read more...] about A Tremendous Hotel in Austria – Hotel Schloss Fuschl Review
Hotel Review: Intercontinental Davos, Switzerland in Pictures
When you have a week to kill before you need to be in Germany on business, what do you do? Stay at fine hotels in the Alps of course. Our first stop is the Intercontinental Davos. I have wanted to stay here since I saw it reviewed on Travel is Free last year. If it's good enough for Drew and Carrie, it's surely good for the Jeffsetters as well. … [Read more...] about Hotel Review: Intercontinental Davos, Switzerland in Pictures

Welcome to Random Hotel Review Month!
When traveling for business or on vacation, I often take photos of the hotels I visit with every intention of posting a review on the hotel in the future. Then I get busy with other matters and the review sits untouched and photos are ignored. The result is a backlog of hotel reviews that I have been meaning to write, many of which no longer follow any sort of chronology, … [Read more...] about Welcome to Random Hotel Review Month!
Conrad Indianapolis Hotel Review
A few weeks ago I wrote briefly about my trip to Indianapolis in a post titled "Impressed with Indianapolis." In that post, I promised that more would follow, including a review of the Conrad Indianapolis hotel, where I stayed for the night. Here is that review. One of the benefits to arriving at your hotel after 11 PM is that at that point most of the room assignments are … [Read more...] about Conrad Indianapolis Hotel Review
Four Seasons Silicon Valley Palo Alto Hotel Review
What do you do when you are in Silicon Valley to visit Google and all but one of their recommended hotels are sold out for your stay? You book a room at the Four Seasons Hotel and write a review about it, of course! That's what happened to me during my October, 2013 trip to Mountain View, CA for an annual Google Conference... and after spending 3 nights at the property, I … [Read more...] about Four Seasons Silicon Valley Palo Alto Hotel Review
The Madison Hotel Review, Morristown New Jersey Hotel Review
While the Madison Hotel shares a name with the nearby city of Madison, NJ, it is actually located in Morristown, which appears to confuse both cab drivers and GPS's equally. Neither my cab driver nor his GPS could manage to find the Madison hotel on our first approach, so we ended up driving through the campus of Farleigh Dickinson University for around 30 minutes before … [Read more...] about The Madison Hotel Review, Morristown New Jersey Hotel Review
