Hilton Gold is the best status abroad for those of us lucky enough to have it. Suite upgrades in Seychelles, the best buffet breakfast in Maldives, and lounge access in Istanbul make it well worth the cost of qualifying each year.
I checked into the Conrad Tokyo and received stellar service from the moment I arrived. I was upgraded to an impressive room on a high floor and given access to the lounge. As I only had one night in Tokyo before my RTW adventure continued, I didn’t have the time to truly enjoy the hotel. The Conrad, located in the Tokyo Shiodome, is walking distance of the Tsukiji Fish Market which was my first stop after settling in.
After a rowdy evening in Roppongi, I abruptly came to consciousness, scrambled for the lobby, and made my way to the airport. On the one hand, it’s a waste to stay at such hotels for an abrupt amount of time. On the other, with one night in Tokyo, I’d rather go eat, drink, and misremember it all than stay in my tidy room.
