They share their gym with a PT company so that’s why it’s a bit nicer with showers and stuff. Plus is better equipment and things there minus is there’s physical trainers and clients.
Thanks for this review! Based on your video, you had a bathtub instead of a shower enclosure? That strikes me as a little odd these days. But great for those traveling with very small children, I guess.
The historical aspect of the Great Scotland Yard, the quirkiness and the detailing in the rooms/bathrooms but that's about it. The Great Scotland Yard does feel much more like a boutique hotel though if that's what you're looking for.
Ok the biggest question I can’t seem to find a good answer to is this: with a two player system with myself and my spouse, is it better to refer each other to cards one of us has to double up on each card or to have each of us have different cards? I started with the Chase Sapphire Preferred and then got the Freedom Unlimited and she just got the Chase Freedom Flex. Should we next refer each other to this cards and get SUBs and referral bonuses but have duplicate of two cards with obviously the same multipliers or should we continue getting different cards to more quickly cover all our categories and get cards from different banks like AMEX, CapitalOne, Citi?
These travel video reviews always have the best intro music. My Spotify playlist keeps growing haha. Nice review!
We were family of 4 and went bit of a cheaper points route which is Hyatt Place London City East. It was basic and fine for our family.
Most hotels outside of the U.S. have annoyingly low maximum occupancy for rooms 🫤
Thank you for the tips!!
Thanks Max! Great video as always!
Thank you for watching!
Wonderful review. You’ll have to make a review on your flight there and your golf trip. Thanks.
Coming soon!
Hey Max you got a shout out from Nick Reyes at Frequent Miler on their latest podcast! Keep up the good work 🤚🏼
I've heard! I'll have to give the podcast a listen. Thanks for letting me know!

Ah that makes sense which is why I saw signs for classes / PT!
I was very impressed with their gym.
💯 not often you get a fully equipped gym with a squat rack too!

Hi Max, I noticed you’re using a map to check the Tube routes. Which app is that? Thanks much for sharing your experience.
Was there anything you liked better at the Great Scotland Yard than the Andaz?

Is the IHG One premier credit card good?

Can’t find the review for Scotland Yard one, could you add the link in the description?
I haven’t made the video yet 😅 coming soon 😆
@@MaxMilesPoints can’t wait
bad wifi is not good, especially for an international traveler.
Agreed
I’m in London a lot these days. Internet sucks in many places. Unstable and slow. Even the phone data plans are unreliable. I don’t understand it
You’re the second person to mention this. so unexpected for London, I thought it was just me and my service provider and the slow hotel internet
If you use att and just pay for the international cost when you go abroad. You should have no problem.
Completely off topic - what's your HDCP around?
Haha kinda on topic since I mentioned golf. Right now it’s a 5
Slow to dead internet service…oh heck no staying for me😅
