The world's finest hotels, with a concierge of your own
I'm CP, a private hotel and travel concierge in Singapore, affiliated with Fora Travel. You deal with me personally, from your first message to your flight home. I match you with the right hotel and room, add the partner benefits, brief the hotel before you arrive and reply on WhatsApp the same day while you travel, at no extra cost.
One person looking after your trip
No call centre and no hand-offs. I handle every enquiry, booking and request myself, so you always know who to message.
Matched to you
I learn how you like to travel, then shortlist the hotels and rooms that fit, with honest notes on each one.
Briefed before you arrive
After you book, I write to the hotel to confirm your benefits, share the occasion and your preferences, and politely ask about an upgrade.
On WhatsApp while you travel
I reply the same day, between 8am and 10pm Singapore time. If something is not right at the hotel, I take it up with their team for you.
Everything around the stay
Transfers, experiences, villas, flights and day-by-day plans, arranged around your hotels. Planning help is included.

An upgrade when available, and at some hotels confirmed when I book.

What my clients say
Our Bali honeymoon was perfect because of CP. He didn't just book a hotel. He curated an experience. He arranged a complimentary villa upgrade, a private candlelit dinner on the beach, a welcome champagne, and even coordinated with the hotel for a special honeymoon turndown. You can tell he genuinely loves what he does.
Planning a family trip to Thailand with two young kids felt overwhelming until CP stepped in. He found family-friendly properties in both Bangkok and Phuket, secured kids' welcome amenities, breakfast for the whole family, and an ocean-view upgrade in Phuket. He even checked if the hotels had proper childproofing. CP thinks of everything.
Our family of five spent two weeks in Vietnam and CP handled every hotel along the way: Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh City. At each property, he'd secured family rooms, breakfast for everyone, and at least one upgrade. In Halong Bay, he got us a suite on the cruise with a private balcony. He even researched which hotels had the best pools for kids. CP made a complex multi-city trip feel seamless.

Email: changpeng.lua@fora.travel
Which destinations do you cover?
Hotels and resorts worldwide. I'm based in Singapore and across Asia every quarter, and I travel to Europe and further afield every year. The guides here cover the places my clients ask about most, from Italy, Greece and France to Japan, Bali and the Maldives.
Are your hotel rates higher than booking direct?
I add no booking markup. I quote the hotel's own rates, and the benefits come on top. Some member-only or prepaid rates cannot carry benefits, and I tell you when that is the case.
Do I have to prepay?
It depends on the rate. Many flexible rates are paid at the hotel when you check out, while advance-purchase rates are paid when you book. I show you the terms before you confirm.
What benefits can I receive?
Most programmes include daily breakfast for two, a hotel credit, an upgrade when available, and early check-in or late check-out when available. The exact list depends on the hotel and programme, and I confirm it before you book.
Can I still earn loyalty points?
Usually, yes. Bookings with Hyatt, Marriott, Hilton, IHG and Accor generally still earn points and elite night credits. I confirm this for your rate.
Do you charge a planning fee?
No. Planning help is included. Hotels and travel partners pay me a commission when you book.
Who is behind The Travel Fellowship?
I'm CP, a private hotel and travel concierge in Singapore and an independent affiliate of Fora Travel. I handle every enquiry and booking myself. The business is registered in Singapore as THETRAVELFELLOWSHIP LLP (UEN T26LL1117B).
Will I deal with you directly?
Yes. I handle your enquiry, booking and on-trip requests myself, one-to-one. The hotel's own team looks after you on the ground, and I stay in touch with them for you.
How quickly will you reply?
The same day. I reply on WhatsApp within a few hours, between 8am and 10pm Singapore time, before, during and after your trip. Messages that arrive overnight are answered the next morning.
