I almost walked past this man at The Oberoi Vanyavilas, Ranthambore Then I saw what he was drawing with. A piece of newspaper, folded into a point and dipped in soot. Every tiger behind him was made that way. He scrapes the soot off oil lamps, and off truck exhaust pipes when those run out. His name is M.D. Parashar. He found the technique by accident almost 40 years ago, while cleaning a lamp. His work hangs in Rashtrapati Bhavan. He teaches around 400 local kids a year for free. And he’s still sitting under a tree, drawing for whoever stops. If you’re ever at Vanyavilas, go find him and buy a piece. Best souvenir you’ll take home.
Only 25 tents, and Travel + Leisure readers once voted it the best hotel in the world. Oberoi Vanyavilas, Ranthambore. I can see why.

People keep asking if booking through an advisor actually saves money. So I’ve been showing it, one hotel at a time. Bangkok, Dubai, Istanbul, Singapore, Tokyo, Langkawi. Every one’s linked below. New ones get added to this thread as they go up.

🚨New Property Alert Waldorf Astoria Kuala Lumpur opens today. It’s the brand’s first hotel in Malaysia. It’s all suites — 268 of them. The smallest is 80 sqm, and the top Waldorf Astoria Suite is 745 sqm. It’s in KL’s Golden Triangle on Jalan Raja Chulan, right by Bukit Bintang and Pavilion, with the Petronas Towers close by. The bit Indians should care about: Garima Arora is opening Yaari here, a modern Indian restaurant. She runs Gaa in Bangkok (two Michelin stars), and she was the first Indian woman to win one. Jean-Georges is doing three venues too. The spa covers two whole floors (2,275 sqm), with a hammam, salt saunas, a 20m pool, and La Prairie treatments.

InterContinental Hua Hin teapawt.org/asktarunn/status/21157…
Public rate vs my rate, #8 InterContinental Hua Hin. 3 nights, 23–26 Nov. Public rate: THB 26,004 My rate: THB 17,966 That’s THB 8,038 back in your pocket. 3rd night is basically free. Plus breakfast daily, a $100 hotel credit, upgrade if available, early check-in/late checkout, and a welcome amenity. Still a direct booking, so you keep your IHG points and elite nights. Free cancellation, and nothing to pay until you get there. Hua Hin is where Bangkok goes for the beach. Royal seaside town, white colonial-style resort right on the sand, none of the Phuket chaos.

Private pool. Lakeside deck. Fire pit in the middle of the jungle. Aman-i-Khás, Ranthambore. Easily one of the most unreal stays in India and most Indians have never heard of it.

One honest note on Aman-i-Khás. The gym is on the smaller side and there aren’t many workout options.
