What do you actually help with?

My core service is helping you choose the right location and the right hotel. For many trips, that decision determines how everything else feels. I guide you to the best base for your stay and recommend a short, edited list of hotels that fit your timing, budget, and travel style. Full daily itineraries are optional. Many clients don’t need them.

Do I have to book full trip planning to work with you?

No. Many clients work with me solely for location and hotel selection. If later you want help with restaurants, guides, or activities, we can add that. Nothing is required upfront.

How do you decide which location is right for me?

I look at walkability, transportation, pacing, who you’re traveling with, and how you actually like to spend your days. Central doesn’t always mean convenient. Quiet doesn’t always mean relaxing. Context matters.

How many hotel options will I see?

Usually two to four. Enough to feel confident, not overwhelmed. I filter aggressively so you’re choosing between genuinely good fits, not scrolling through endless listings.

Will you help me choose room types or upgrades?

Yes. I focus on value, not status. I’ll tell you when a suite is worth the splurge and when a standard room is perfectly fine. The goal is comfort and ease, not checking a box.

How do you know when a hotel price actually makes sense?

I look at timing, demand, room category, flexibility, and how the hotel functions for your specific trip. A high rate can be reasonable. A “deal” can be the wrong choice. My role is to help you spend intentionally, not just choose a number.

Will you push me to spend more than I’m comfortable with?

No. Budget is a framework, not a target. I’ll tell you when spending more meaningfully improves the experience and when it doesn’t.

Do you charge a fee for this service?

For standard hotel selection and booking, no. I’m compensated by the property. For more complex trips or multi-stop itineraries, a planning fee may apply. I’ll always be clear before we begin.

Can you book the hotel for me?

Yes. I handle the booking and secure preferred partner benefits such as breakfast, credits, and upgrade priority when available.

What if something changes or goes wrong during the trip?

I’m available to troubleshoot and advocate if needed. Ideally you never need this support. When you do, it matters.

Who is this service best for?

Travelers who want confidence without overplanning. People who value good judgment, don’t want endless options, and want the trip to feel settled once the hotel is booked.

Amex Platinum Gives You Perks. I Give You Context.

Amex Platinum is a great tool. If you like booking your own travel and handling details yourself, it works well. Working with me is for something else.

Perks are the baseline, not the benefit. I have access to many of the same preferred hotel programs, often at the same rate. Breakfast, property credits, upgrade priority, flexible check-in or check-out. In most cases, the perks overlap.

The difference is what happens around them.

Booking Through Amex

You get a long list of hotels
Perks are standardized
You talk to a call center
You manage the decision-making
Result: you get a booking

Working With Me

You get 2–4 curated options
I clarify which perks matter
You talk to me, not a queue
I help you weigh the value
Result: you get a trip

If all you want is a perk, Amex is great. If you want someone who knows your taste, makes the decision easy, and helps you choose what’s actually worth it—that’s where I come in.
