Kicking off my hipster project, I stayed for a night in downtown Dallas at one of the city’s many luxury hotels. The Joule is centrally located in the city of Dallas (it’s right on Main Street!) and offers a number of amenities and luxuries to make just about any stay in Dallas a special one. Everything …

Well, hey, this was a lovely hotel stay. The Dominican hotel is located in downtown Brussels—just a few short steps from the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert where you can find all sorts of touristic (and local!) things to do (and near a delightfully delicious Belgian restaurant). It’s a member of Design Hotels and the rooms certainly met …
I recently stayed at the Le Meridien hotel (website) in downtown Budapest. The hotel was centrally located (really, you couldn’t get more central than it’s location right at Deák Ferenc tér) and offered beautiful views of the Erzsébet Square below.

On my trip to Brighton I didn’t stay at the Hotel Pelirocco but I did go to the bar one evening to enjoy a cocktail (or two). The stylish boutique hotel isn’t located in the main drag near all the gay clubs, but it’s not too far that you can’t walk. The boutique hotel’s most …
A few weeks back I found myself briefly homeless. If you’re an expat, especially in Berlin, you’re probably familiar with short-term holiday apartment rentals. When I came to Berlin over the summer, I never expected to actually stay so long, but here I still am. And much of that is thanks to short-term apartments. Which, …
