POLL: How Much Have You Paid for a Hotel Room?

Mary Jo Manzanares — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 12:17:00 +0000

I’ve been checking out a lot of hotel rooms lately, and have seen some that are very ordinary and some that are truly spectacular. Those truly spectacular ones often have price tags to match.

It would be nice to think that for a special occasion, money doesn’t matter. But in the real world, it does. Even for a honeymoon, special event, or romantic getaway, we all have a budget. Sometimes it will be greater than others, but we all have a budget to work within.

This got me thinking about what I’ve spent for a room, and whether or not it was worth it. The most I’ve spent was for a very special occasion (significant birthday), and fell in the more than $250 but less than $500 category. It was worth every penny!

How about you? What’s the most that you’ve paid for a hotel room?

Please check off your price range in the poll, and feel free to leave any additional comments below.

Poll: What’s Your Travel Experience Level

Mary Jo Manzanares — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 00:38:00 +0000

Time for a new poll, and the topic evolved out of some conversations with some other travel bloggers:

What kind of traveler do you consider yourself to be?

Expert – My bag is always packed, I can be at the airport in half an hour, and will figure out plans on the fly.
Advanced – It takes me awhile to figure out what I need to do, but I can manage planning, packing and the airport with minimal stress.
Intermediate – It’s going to take some doing, but I’ll manage.
Novice – I don’t travel that often, so it takes me awhile.
Inexperienced – I need a lesson to help me back, and I have no clue how to get through security.
Miracle Worker – These kids, car seats, strollers and bag didn’t magically get to the plane, OF COURSE I KNOW WHAT I’M DOING!
