Tongsai Bay Hotel. Koh Samui. Thailand. Recommended Luxury Hotel

…iginally uploaded by garybembridge. I have mixed views about the island of Koh Samui, where the Tongsai Bay is located. But you cannot fault the beauty of the Tongsai Bay Hotel, and the standard of the accommodations. We stayed in one of their Pool Villas. From the site it sounded and looked like it would be very special, but it was dramatically better when we got there. There is a huge open deck, which has a fairly large plunge pool; outside doub…

Novotel Hotel Bangkok Airport (review and video)

Novotel Hotel Bangkok Airport (review and video)

We stayed here for a few hours between our flight back from Koh Samui and our flight back to London just after midnight. It was very reasonable to book a room for a night and we decided that it was definitely worth it than hanging about the airport. The hotel runs a shuttle bus service from the airport, and it only takes about 5 minutes. The hotel is large. It has this vast reception atrium. It is massive, and it looks like a large percentage of…

HILTON MILLENIUM HOTEL, NEW YORK, USA: noisy due to ground zero building

…it on this trip. The hotel is right next to the famous Century 21 discount label department store and an easy 10 minute walk to South Street Sea Port area with its shops and museums and the major drop off and pick up for the round Manhattan bus tours. But overall, it is not a very handy destination for tourists as far from the shopping areas and Central Park etc. Overall, I liked the room a lot but the noise of construction did wake me up earlier…

…if you are putting your luggage out keep the tear off tag from the luggage label, that will remind you what allocated slot you have and, as some cruise lines require us to show our luggage tag colour to let you off the ship, the allocated time. Finally, when packing, don’t pack the cruise line umbrella, dressing gown, binoculars or other bits and pieces around the cabin.

The currency is the Norwegian kroner, and because it’s not the Euro, the exchange rate is more complicated, it’s easy to get confused about how much you’re paying. Make sure you understand it. On the plus side, many of the souvenir shops will take Euros and some will take dollars or UK Sterling. I…

…ut the overall dress code was very relaxed. This was not a flashy designer label for dinner experience, it was more like when I have been on an expedition cruise. In short, were what you bring and wear was low on the list. Personal Feel The third thing was with a maximum of 312 guests and 200 crew. People said they liked that they got to know the crew and vice versa. They liked always being called by name. As the same crew would man lunch, dinner,…
