About Me

Luxury versus Economy Hotels: A Lodging Blog

Hello, my name is Yumi, and when I a a kid, my parents owned hotels. I was always walking through the lobby of a luxury hotel, listening to my dad sell hotels over the phone or helping my mum choose new duvets for one of our hotels. As a young adult, I began to travel, but instead of staying at luxury hotels, I opted to stay at hostels and economy hotels. Due to both experiences, I learned a lot about the differences between luxury and economy.

In this blog, I am going to discuss everything related to luxury and economy hotels as well as comparisons between the two. Enjoy reading and thanks for stopping by!
