REVIEW: Belmond VSOE (Orient Express)

Belmond’s Venice Simplon-Orient-Express is the epitome of golden age glamour, a journey back to an enchanted time in which train travel was a momentous event.

The Jean Imbert cuisine is as good as anything you could expect to eat in a top restaurant in Paris and the service is incredibly polished and professional.

Although the richly historical setting is not for everyone, for those who yearn to experience a luxurious voyage into the past, there's really nothing that compares to this.

REVIEW: Swan Hellenic Antarctica Cruise

Belmond's Hiram Bingham is a beautifully restored and maintained train, which truly immersed us in the golden age of rail travel. There is no question that the overall experience is very luxurious and that it is the ideal way to circumvent some of the more onerous government regulation, that makes visiting the citadel of Machu Picchu so complicated.

REVIEW: Rosewood Hong Kong

If you're only in town for a day or two, especially if this is your first visit, then perhaps you'd be better served by a property that has less to offer. Honestly a key 'problem' that we faced here is that we had to really drag ourselves away to explore the city. Any moment spent outside of the hotel seemed like a waste because being on property is just that good.
