Poland? In the winter? “What? Umm, no thanks,” might be the answer I’d expect from most people. With a free stay at a resort soon to expire, we booked our award flight and to Poland we went. A stay at the massive resort called Golebiewski Hotel MIKOŁAJKI, proved to be nostalgic of its past glory…
TRIP REPORT INDEX SUMMARY The Westin Dublin is the place to stay when you’re a tourist in Dublin! The location rocks! It’s also a great to use your Starwood Points for a free night and get a suite upgrade (if you use an upgrade certificate or cross your fingers with Platinum Status). The hotel is…

With our flight in the morning, we had the remaining few hours already planned – dinner and a comedy show. We decided last minute to stay in Dublin…
TRIP REPORT INDEX SUMMARY Hen party hot spot. Great location and price. This is an upscale Sheraton hotel in the center of Ireland. It’s one of the few larger hotels in the area (in one of the few larger cities in the area) so it is used for weddings and events. We stopped in Athlone,…
