DOWNTOWN SEATTLE BOUTIQUE HOTEL: KIMPTON VINTAGE PARK, WINE HOTELS. GOTH CLUB SCENE, NOC NOC INDUSTRIAL MUSIC.
Thanks for supporting our GPKISM dance video on the anniversary of the earthquake! Mary Nine and tank9 are an amazing duo. We hope the video encourages people to take action for Japan.
The charity project wouldn’t have been possible without Seattle’s Kimpton Hotel Vintage Park. (Remember the time we stayed at this boutique wine hotel?)
As a seasoned traveler, I can vouch: Kimpton’s customer service is through the roof. The charming concierge Louis greeted us with hugs, and sent this hand-written note to our room — along with chocolates, a DVD, and a bottle of Syrah!
The rooms are lushly decorated, each with individual artwork. No beige here.
The hotel upgraded us to a double suite. We love the leopard print bathrobes.
Local producers hold afternoon wine tastings, which let the guests mingle. This time, we tried rose and syrah by Washington’s Adamant Cellars.
The beds were comfortable, and had a good bounce! (No, we don’t encourage such naughty behavior…)
Guess who brought these bear bags.
When you travel to Seattle, keep Hotel Vintage Park in mind. You can’t find a warmer hotel (and it’s pet-friendly too).

My dashing eyelashes are a gift by Sugarpill by Shrinkle. Basil Farrow loves the packaging.
Sugarpill’s eyelashes are well-made: no sharp edges, and lightweight. They went on easily and kept their shape, so I can wear them multiple times. Paws up.
Rose also rocked spider lashes.
Lolita-Punk fashion, and leopard half-shaved hair.
That evening, we went to the Industrial night (Resurrection) at Club Noc Noc.
Hugs for everyone who came and supported our project.
PS: I’m posting daily photos with the Instagram app, including cute Scottish Fold cat snaps. Let’s be friends? My Instagram name is lacarmina.
What’s your favorite hotel, and why? Did you enjoy our Seattle Goth adventures? Take a moment to watch my industrial dance video with tank9, Mary Nine, and jumping kigurumi.

FUNNY VIDEO WITH MAT DEVINE OF KILL HANNAH! YOTEL NYC, SPACE ROBOT FUTURE THEME HOTEL, WORLD’S COOLEST HOTELS.
For real? You bet. Yukiro and I made a Travel SOS video with Mat Devine, frontman of rock band Kill Hannah!
★♡★♡ Please Like it (click below), so we can continue the series! ★♡★♡
The video’s set in the space-themed Yotel, our sponsor hotel during New York Fashion Week.
What will travel look like in fifty years? Will we have robots and aliens?
Find out above and on Huffington Post.
Inside Yotel, a Tumi robot arm carries and stores luggage for guests.
The lobby has a row of touch-screen computers for check-in.
Our sleek white cabin (that’s what they call the rooms) quickly got messy. We loved the free coffee machines on each floor.
Located at 10th Avenue and W42 in New York City, the hotel is hard to miss.
On the 4th floor, chef Richard Sandoval’s restaurant DohYo fuses Latin and Asian cuisine.
Beam me up, Scotty! London’s Softroom and NYC’s Rockwell Group collaborated on the outerspace interior design.
Mat Devine has a killer sense of humor, and we loved hanging out with him in New York. Kill Hannah is currently on tour; you can see fun updates on his Twitter and Facebook.
Inspired by Japanese capsule hotels, the rooms have space-saving elements such as retractable beds.
The VIP suite has a hot tub, 180 degree view, and dining table that converts to a billiard table.
Aliens not included!
Cabins begin at $149 a night, and can be booked via the Yotel NYC website.
