combining my wife’s work event with our anniversary in amsterdam in the fall. willing to spend $$$ but having a lot of indecision as we also hate spending money on expensive hotels if they’re just an expensive brand and boring. also hate overly hip spots. prior hotels that we have enjoyed have included the viceroy in chicago, ace in toronto, al moudira in luxor (obsessed).

for amsterdam, i want a walkable neighborhood where I can pick up coffee and a pastry, go for a run, enjoy pre dinner wine bar. my aesthetic is generally clean and modern but not overly stylized. love a bathrobe and nespresso in the room.

considering the following options: okura (sold out for half the days), sir albert, pulitzer, hoxton, mercier.

any faves here? dylan isn’t worth the cost for this particular trip.

I work full time as a W2 employee, but also do some expert witness/consulting on the side. My W2 job’s PBE fund won’t cover all of the medical conferences I’m invited to this academic year, therefore I’m wondering if anyone ever deducts their annual medical society membership fees or travel for conferences under sole proprietor expenses. Not representing my employer during these conferences, and I would argue staying up to date is necessary for my sidegig?

Thanks in advance
