Everyome talling about chains, but isn't the main issue someone robbing you when you're not inside??
Most hotels do provide a safe for (smallish) valuables.
Most those safes are laughably bad at security. Especially when the hotel can reset the pin incase a guest forgets and the instructions on how are on the internet.
I mean, what valuables are you leaving in your hotel room? The only thing in there for me is usually my clothes, and while they may be kinda nice, they're really far from resell-them-at-a-profit-nice.
Laptop, passport, cash beyond what I'm willing to keep in my wallet
Makes sense. Mostly stopped taking my laptop (don't wanna be able to work on holidays), tend to have passport with me (probably makes it more likely to be stolen, but makes me feel better), and tend to only get what I am willing to have with me from the ATM (only works because my destinations tend to have enough ATMs, and I have a card that doesn't charge FX fees).
So all in all, a bit situational, I guess.
Yup, get an account with a bank with international ATM-fee reimbursement and stop carrying so much cash.
In the US, two good options are Schwab and Fidelity, and there are probably others.
