Hotel Review: Park Hyatt Vienna
In June 2014, Park Hyatt Vienna opened its doors in the former headquarters of the Länderbank, right in the heart of Vienna’s first district. Thanks to its central location, you are just a few steps away from the hustle and bustle of Vienna. The Graben and Kohlmarkt are just around the corner, while Kärntner Straße, […]

Hotel Review: W Rome
Located in Ludovisi, this hotel surprised even the biggest skeptics in my family. Think perfectly crafted morning coffees, a lobby that makes you forget about minimalism, and service that actually delivers on its promises.

Lounge Review: The Wing – First Class Lounge
After a short security check at Hong Kong Airport, we went straight to “The Wing”, Cathay Pacific’s flagship lounge.

Flight Review: Cathay Pacific First Class

Hotel Review: Constance Aiyana, Pemba Island
Unique – this word best describes the Constance Aiyana on Pemba Island, Tanzania. After a short Cessna flight and a subsequent one-and-a-half-hour drive through rough and smooth, you wouldn’t expect to see such a breathtaking sight. The setting, the entire hotel architecture combined with the vegetation and the shimmering turquoise blue sea take your breath […]

Flight Review: Swiss First Class (A330-400)
Swiss tries to keep its First Class exclusive. This means that it can only be booked with cash or for the highest status holders in the Miles & More program with miles. The cabin in the A330-400 is a bit outdated but in my opinion still top. The seat is wide and comfortable. The German-speaking […]

Arriving from Vienna, you are in the wrong terminal for the onward flight to Dar es Salaam. Normally this means a short trip by train, for First Class passengers a visit to the lounge to be driven from there to the other terminal.
