But the good rooms (suites) face Bourke St with the tram noise

Unless you want cheap and close to the station, don't pick DT. It's quite noisy unless you get an internal room. Haven't tried the Next Hotel but continental breakfast better at Hilton compared to DT.

Some older 5 stars only have it on one side unfortunately

Same!!! I need that extra space on the side and we're paying for it in Japan!

And I hate that usually the spend required for some special offer is some round number, but the prices all end in 99 cents. It's a scam!

Understated luxury is what I want for hotels. Just like how I pick good restaurants that don't have dress codes.

Think I'd be happy in J and spend the cash in 5* hotels. 1717384487 My version of roughing it is slightly better... 3*...

Digging up an old post. I've been looking at HKG accommodation and no matter what date I put in, I can't find availability for the suites at HGI. I wonder if someone is living there long term?

The good old days... think I got about 200K out of it, so tiny compared to some others

Same

Next time try the google maps save parking feature.

Wow first time I've seen three offers overlapping this weekend: 1. 4 weeks $50/week for 10K 2. $90 for 3.6K 3. $80 for 1K or $110 for 2K That must be better than Aldi prices for name brand stuff!!!

Same!

Thought United Nations at BF as I've always seen Chinese speaking officers on duty.

This is 100%. Having said that though, nowadays, if I tell the officer checking the declaration card that I've got prescription medicine and packaged non risky foods, then they don't usually want to see them. As some of the questions contain multiple things in one, I now circle the thing that I...
