As I travel everywhere, it is not always possible to stay in the world's best and finest luxury hotels. Instead, I have stayed in the following hotels and apartments. They are not part of my Luxury Hotel-collection, but I instead do write up's or social media promotion for them.
The list below shows the non-luxury properties before April 2015. Onwards, the non-luxury properties will not be put into the box below, but instead be part of articles.
